Do you even lift, AF bro?

I have worked on lifting, though I usually go for more reps than maxxing out the weight. My best bench was 90 lbs. Including the bar. I could do ten or more reps with that, so I guess I could go higher if I wanted to just do a couple reps as heavy as possible. Squats are 220, though I use a machine to push with my legs, instead of standing up with weights on my shoulders. Again, I could likely do more if it was just one or two reps. Those are the two heavy weight exercises I do. Sometimes I do curls, and I could probably do 25 lbs or so on that.

I strongly recommend you dispense with the curls (and any bent over rows you may do for your upper back) and start doing pull-ups instead. You'll work the same muscle groups you would otherwise hit with rows and curls but more efficiently, in less time, and with less chance of injuring yourself. It is simply one of the best upper body exercises there is.

Alright. I'll try pullups. Generally I've avoided it because my arms have never been strong enough to pull my body very much. I have used a lat pull machine for my back, though last time I checked their one lat pull machine was out of order.
