I tried to do chin-ups 3X18 with 60% of my one rep max and couldn't get anywhere close to 18 reps. My last set I did just bodyweight and even that was hard (of course I was fatigued from starting out with a 35Ibs plate then 25).
Did anyone else have this problem?

Last week I finished HH and was doing 4X3 with 70 Ibs hanging from my belt.

I seem to have the same problem with BB curls also.

Obviously I'll drop weight but I was wondering the reasoning behind this. Any guesses? Thanks
