Thats not crazy. Pull downs are fine, but they won't really make much of an improvement on your pullups. If you really want to improve your pullups, allways do them to fail and then finish your reps on the pull down.

The first set of squats was not as difficult as I expected. The 2nd set was much more difficult, but I did complete it.

I hear ya. 18 reps is pretty much torture. Grats on getting through it.
