Yeah, that goes for everything on this damn list. Heavy does not mean INCORRECT or SLOPPY. You go strict and use the intended muscles. Army-style "get as many as possible pullups regardless of form" doesn't count. No swing, controlled, back arched and pull to the upper chest. Pinch the elbows behind the back. When you can do 15 with 100lbs hanging off of you, you won't worry about not having a wide back OR small biceps anymore.
