Re: [HIT Digest] Chins

Try Pavel's Ladders


It is a form of volume training. Try to specialize on it
for 1 or 2 cycles and when you have your volume up to 20
you can get back to the regular low (5 or 6 reps) and will
add weight easily.

More information in www.cbass.com or you can do a search on
Google
