Need Ab Strap Help

[jackie7]

I have a chin up bar mounted in my bedroom doorway. I would like ab straps that attach without having to remove the bar. Does anyone know if something like this exists? If not which ab straps are good? Thanks.

They sure do! I'm getting ready to order a pair myself. These are what they have in most gyms. They're pricey, but they'll last forever. If you don't want these, I think BF has other types too.

Do you think these are just as good?

I've seen some that have big carabeener (sp) type closures that you wouldn't have to remove the bar for.

In fact, I think the makers of "Perfect Push-Up" have some (that they sell for use with their pull-up bar, but which don't have to be used with it). Check out Walmart, which is where I saw them.

There are also the "Ab-Originals" straps, but I'm not sure how they attach to the bar.

HTH!

Yes, those are also sold at Big Fitness.

Kathryn, you don't have to remove the bar for any of these straps. They have large clips, similar to the smaller clips you see on cable machines at the gym.
