For those of you that like to exercise at home for the ease and convenience should have some type of pull-up bar to use. Being the pull-up is one of the best exercises we can do, especially for the back, shoulders arms. If you do not have any bar now you should check into getting one of the many portable bars that are out there.

Your choices would be the doorway pull-up bars, the type that you can bolt to the wall or ceiling joists, portable outdoor system or just build you own. Obviously building your own pull-up bar system would work great if you are living in a permanent location but if you move around one of the other styles are best.

I currently have one of the doorway bars that I can use at home. I have had no problems with it; it hangs onto the door frame securely enough for me. I have had guys that weight up to 185 pounds use it and it felt secure. You do have to bend the knees to keep your feet off the floor but that is a small thing to worry about because the bar is convenient to use.

If you would rather have a pull-up bar outside check out one of those stand alone types of systems that you can put together and take apart for moving it around. These are good to use if you have a group function somewhere with no pull-up bar because you take it with you and set it up. My only issue with these is they might be a little unstable if someone is kipping hard to pull themselves up. A couple people steadying it can help. ±¾ÎÄÀ´×ÔÖ¯ÃÎ
