Cool. I still think you should concentrate more on higher reps for now. Oh, also I thought of one more tip that I use. You may have a tendency to jut your head forward to "meet" the weight. To either make up for too much weight (lighten it) or to compensate for lack of ROM or both. One thing I do is to look up while doing the pulls. I don't mean point your face up only to avert your eyes a little upward. I know it sounds funny but it tends to keep me from pulling my head forward which is a bad thing to be doing. You head tends to want to follow you eyes. So when you have those two forces opposing, i.e. then instinct to just your head forward and the tendency for your head to follow you gaze they cancel each other out and you get more of a neutral head position. Now, I wouldn't necessarily advice this for other things but it works well for this.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
