Just curious. These days I go by the Planet Fitness in town several days a week, as it is cheap, convenient, and actually has everything I need at my age (mid-40's). One thing I notice there is how few people perform chin ups versus what I saw while growing up in more traditional gyms. Rarely will I see somebody grab the bar and knock out a set to failure. Not many folks even use the assisted chin up station. Perhaps they are less glamourous than they used to be, but they are still a dang tough movement and I think they are still a fair indicator of strength vs. weight. Can't recall ever seeing a person that could do double-digit chins while still looking unhealthy/heavy.
