Good home pull-up bar?

[IanZoja]

Any suggestions?

It depends on your needs

Do you need wall mounted, or doorway?

I never realized using a pull-up bar could develop abs like the guy in the picture. Care to elaborate?

I advise you to check a wall mounted pull up bar as this bar is more durable and you can add additional weight on you while doing pull ups. Also, you may be able to do the muscle ups and straight bar dips which is a huge benefit.

I would agree with Kirsten. I have had one hanging in my doorway for a couple of years. The handles had to be taped because the foam wore out, but it has served me well. The other thing I like about this doorway setup is that if placed properly it is inviting. Great exercise and part of my daily workout.

Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar is ideal for pull-ups, chin-ups , dips , crunches, and much more.... Its a great way to work on the pull ups at home . Its very easy to put up and takes seconds to take it down.. Its really a good product

that's right

I have two large beams in my garage about 6 feet apart fixed at the concrete floor and at the rafters. One beam is used to hang my speedbag, and the other my Thai heavy bag. In between these beams I have a 1 and 1/2 inch solid steel bar, over this bar I have a 2 and 1/4 inch steel pipe that spins freely over the bar about 8 feet from the floor.

Needless to say, this setup really works your grip!

its a bo staff, (like what Donatello uses)
its 1 & 1/8 inches thick and pretty strong.
I only weigh 165 but my friend weighs a little over 200 and although it bends
it never cracks or or anything.
I've been using it with no problems for almost 10 years.
However, a metal bar would suffice.

good place to hang up a broom horizontally as well.
