Is weighted pull ups a better upper body's strength indicator than bench press?

What if the guy has a gun and blasts you right in the gut?

Then chances are high he spends close to the rest of his life in a cell. And outside the USA people aren't allowed to carry guns and trigger happy.

Chances are high you either get sued or spend time in a cell too for punching someone in the face….

I dont know but i sure miss it. I had shoulder surgery 6 weeks ago and awaiting the go ahead to get back into it.

I used to do weighted pullups, strapped, with 90lbs. I also did standing overhead press 185lbs for 3 times. Likely why i needed surgery....

Even if I would get away with it I wouldn't punch someone besides self defense.

What if a dude just started doing weighted pull ups infront of you? He'd be bragging about their superiority to MMA in self defense scenarios.

I don't care. Don't mean mug me or say weird shit. I got my own business to cater to.

What about doing pull ups as a fat cunt? I'm quite good at doing that.

Also I say the bench is a better indicator because it recruits the back, arms, shoulders and chest. While the pull-up does not really work the shoulders or chest.

So yeah to answer you question it would be the bench.

The pullup works 100 muscles in the upper body. It's a far superior movement compared to bench in terms of functional strength. It also reveals p4p how strong someone is.

100?

100?

Yessir. All kinds of stabilizing muscles throughout the core and upper body are activated.

 

[wufabufa]

100?

It's true.

When I'm repping 30 strict weighted pullups with perfect @DoomPatrol style form, my orbicularis oculi is accumulating tons of fatigue because of how intense my gainz face is during my sets. I've really noticed sick pumps around my eyeballs. I used to look like Maggie Gyllenhaal. Now I look like that Korean guy from The Walking Dead.

Shit works, bro.

I would say yes, as they also test grip strength.
