Article: Ultimate Lat Exercise

You absolutely need to stick with it when it comes to chins. I weigh 230 and can still knock out 15-18 on my first working set. Close grip parallel pullups are no joke either. You'll feel the entire range of your lats when you do them right and go to failure.
 
I agree with Superman. Chins and weighted chins will give you amazing lat growth and strength. I'm 255 pounds and my finish set is 8 reps with 90 lbs chained to my waist but I certainly couldn't do it when I started. Wide, close, parallel use them all.
 
Agree with both the above post. In addition there are certain ways to build up that strength...put a bench underneath the chin up bar use your foot for slight assistance or my personal favorite jump up to the top position of the exercise and make the negative extremely controlled, slow and tight.. those two things made me able to perform the exercise
