Door Pull-up Device
Which is the best pull-up device that you wedge into a doorway?
On some of them, the padding is prone to tearing off. On others the device isn't really wide enough. And yet on others, the welds break.
Has anyone here had personal experience on one that does non of the above?
Thanks!So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

I personally don't feel stable on those types of things. I bought an IronMan Power Tower, for $150. I thought the price was real good. I have heard good things about the Dick's Sporting Goods pullup bar though. Originally Posted by DOMS

The IronMan Power Tower looks good, but I don't have the room for it. Originally Posted by Focus

Do you really need the bent section? I have a large fence cage outside for my dog (siberian husky). The door section of it is perfect for pullups and it's just a straight bar... I don't use it often, but sometimes when I'm home during my off week I'll do some bodyweight stuff outside and use it.

Nevermind... this is bad advice. I get away with it though."Wait 'till you see special photos of my old man butt in April!"

I have one of those. It worked well when I used it. I have a power rack now. Originally Posted by DOMS
