Well you asked so I guess I'll tell ya. I suck at pullups. I am still in the conditioning process of my training so I start out my routine using pullups but I can only do like 7 or 8. So, I finish up that move by doing pulldowns. This isn't bad, is it?
No it isn't bad but you didn't really say why someone must do pulldowns . You could probably find a way to develop your pullups...

For instance if you are just doing 7 to 8 pullups whether it is in a set or a few sets, instead of doing that you could concentrate on doing as many pullups as you can. Do multiple sets of low reps with rest periods to see if you can do more pullups. Then shorten the rest periods. There are all sorts of way you can improve rather than just trying to add reps to whatever you are doing. 7 to 8 ain't bad, btw. You've got a leg up.

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