You can substitute with close grip chin ups.

Do you do pullups.. you could substitute close grip chins.. I doubt there is much around the house that could make for a good pulldown...Do you do pullups.. you could substitute close grip chins.. I doubt there is much around the house that could make for a good pulldown...

Yeah.. I wrote the message then thought "wait I better check that close grip pulldowns are about the same as close grip pullups" so I copied it in case IE cleared the message box and went 2 the muscle targeting section.. saw what I needed then hit back until I got here and just hit paste and post.. but it did have the old text there.. so it got posted twice.. I didn't want to post whore to talk about me messing it up... which of course is mostly what i'm doing right here =)
