I feel like I'm hitting a wall with chin-ups and I'm debating my options. I'm currently using 4 sets of 12 reps with very tight form at the start of back day, and I'm looking to make it more difficult. Before anyone say's "add weight" I'd like to hear some other options.
I've experimented with adding weight before, with decent results, but what I haven't experimented with is expanding the grip. My gym has a chin-up bar that's only about 36" wide and that's what I'm currently using. Has anyone experimented with using a grip wider than that? Say for example closer to 48" or 60"?
I'm also interested in how it will affect back development - width, upper back/rear delt recruitment, etc...
