pull up tower orders?

Who's going to pre-order for $129 + shipping. I would LOVE to have one but DH just got laid off so I think I'll have to just put it on the back burner for now. Shoot!

Sorry about your husband's recent layoff. Cathe said that the Tower can hold no more than one hundred pounds. Does than mean if you weigh more lhan 100 pounds that you cannot do pushup, pullups on it?
 
I think it means it's not safe to rack more than 100 pounds. I would think it's okay to do pull-up and chin-ups. However, that's probably a good question to ask.

Hi gals - I copied this from Cathe's post. I hope it helps you.

"Though the STS - Pushup/Pull Up Tower’s has been tested by and independent testing lab to be able to handle up to 500 lb’s, we don’t suggest using a barbell weight of more than 100 lb’s on the unit. You should use a bench press for heavier weights for obvious safety reason"

Have a good day.
 
sorry to hear about your dh tracey. i pray you guys make it through.

i won't be ordering myself b/c one i just pre ordered sts so i already broke the bank there. and two, just not that excited anymore really. i do pull ups at the gym(on the way home from work so no excuses!) and i am enjoying learning all the new equipment options in the weight room(smith machine to go to my heaviest potential on squats and bench presses). maybe if i didn't have the membership i would still want it but just not that excited anymore.

Sorry to hear about your husband Tracy. :( Hang in there.

I plan on ordering it and using the 20% off coupon from my STS Cardio preorder and money from our tax return. It's a bummer that it will barely be arriving when I'm finishng the STS rotation.
 
Tracy, best wishes to you and your husband. May he find a better job soon!

I'm going to pre-order, though I have no clue where I'm going to keep this thing.

They claim it will fit under your bed when taken apart, which is supposed to be easy. Guess time will tell :) I never know where I will put my next "toy" but there always seems to be room!

I really hope we can use that 20% off coupon on the pre-order! I mean...I'm still getting it but I wouldn't mind saving $25. :)
 
Has anyone here done P90X? I'm wondering how well this will work with those workouts. Any opinions?
 
I am flat broke but, somehow, I will find a way. I need a way to do these moves because none of the door aparatus's (sp?) fit over my 5" wide moldings. Right now, I use a platinum band to do substitute moves I don't believe are anywhere near as effective as bodyweight.

I am preordering the pull up stand! My buy.com cc sent me a card saying if I spend $100 between 4/15 & May 13th they will put a $25 credit on my card and I have the 20% coupon code from ordering STS Cardio!!!! YIPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
 
The shipping fee to the west coast is UGLY!!!

Well I caved in ordered the tower and although I used the coupon code the shipping was a whopping $39.00!!!!!!!!! That was the cheapest shipping mode. Argh to being out here in the west coast!!
