Pullups and dips. I've got a messed up left forearm that all but makes push ups impossible for me.

So i take it you are a strong lady then? How many reps/ sets?
Depends on the form and the ROM. Full range, perpendicular torso maybe 8 or 9.

Pretty good. What is your goal... nice lady tone, or actual muscle. muscle can look good on a lady when done right

Hehe. I guess we need more of those around eh.
Weighted dips is my favorite exercise out of everything deads bench etc... But if were jus talking body weight I'd have to say wide grip pull ups
man I wish I could do wide grip chins with my bodyweight, being heavy sucks in that way lol

You can always increase your functional strength. Being heavy gives you more to work with. When you are light and conquer the body weight, you have to take out the dipping belt
nahh bro i wouldnt trade being big for being small just so i could chin and dip more, no way

They are by far the hardest for me as fas as body weight exercises, that's why I like em so much... Used to watch the lighter guys bust out sets and was envious.... I'd do one maybe 2 then go use the helper an finish my sets, now I'm good for almost 4 sets of 10 my form suffers a lil those last few reps still...in unweighted dips I'm good for 50 lol so kinda boring...
