I've been getting back to working out regularly and have enjoyed getting pullups and dips back into my normal exercise rotation. I'm getting back to the point of needing to add some weight or else the reps just get too high (10+ for multiple sets) and I feel like I'm more prone to injury.
Back in my peak, I was using a belt/chain made for adding plates. Was able to do 6-8 with a 45lb plate (6'1 165ish at the time). Currently closer to 180 now so I'll look to start smaller (25lb plate) and work back up from there. I find my sweet spot for pullups in the 6-10 rep range and for dips in the 8-12 rep range. Once I feel that becomes "too easy" I'll start adding weight.
