pullup bars

[mrschetlee]

Does anyone remember the old pullup bars you could buy that you put up in a doorway? They were tension bars I believe. I sure would like to find one for my home. Thanks!

Thanks Alex, but that particular item isn't being found on that link. Any other suggestions?

This is a much better option, the tension bars ALWAYS slip

As A home owner, Id rather have a power tower or rafter/ wall mounted bar in my garage because havering to do home repairs is not something I want. Im sure after a while my weight would either indent the door frame or even worse.

That wouldnt be an option for me, id hang a pair of rings from my attic door from the studs before doing this
