Powerbar
Stretch yourself, whatever your height, with the pull-up bar that won't wreck your door or leave your feet on the floor.
Here at Stuff HQ we've seen pull-up bars that attach to doors before and to be quite frank, anything that meant we didn't have to go to the gym was okay by us. However, there were two major problems with pretty much every model. One, if you're over six feet tall, you needed to hitch your legs up to your chin to actually pull yourself off the floor. Two, setting it up meant drilling into your wall or door frame. That's why we love the Powerbar ? the pull-up bar that solves both these problems.
Instead of using screw fixings, the tubular steel Powerbar grips to your door frame via cantilever gripping action. As only part of the user's weight is creating downward pressure on the frame, the bar holds, and there's no damage to the frame. When fitted, the upper section of the Powerbar is 78 inches (6ft 6in) from the floor, allowing all but the most giant-like of users to pull themselves off the ground. The lower section supports your forearms, preventing swinging.
The Powerbar can be used for more than pull-ups too. Perform chin-ups, leg raises... even remove it from the doorway and use it for wide arm push-ups at floor level. Screw the gym! And don't screw the Powerbar!
