Doorway Pull Up Bar

[sjdavis]

I'm looking at getting a pull up bar that fits in my doorway and would love some input. Do any of you have one? Which one? There are a lot of varieties out there. Pros/Cons?

I have the P90X over door pull up bar. I LOVE it. There are lots of ways to do pull ups/chin ups with it (different hand positions).

I think the ones like exercise-lover has are probably the best ones (multi-grip) cause you can start with what's comfortable for you. I have an old school bally one (just straight across) and barely use it. Probably cause my shoulder flexibility is lacking and I have scoliosis. Rather, I sat up a homemade suspension type inverted row thingy on the back porch.lol. I use this for building back strength.

I researched doorway pullup bars but they all seemed to get poor/mixed reviews. I decided to go for the Weider power tower. It's ~$130 on Amazon, and was worth every penny. DH and I agree it's one of our best fitness purchases. We love it.
