Its already cheap at 699, I bought one from Decathlon for 2k. Although the grip the pull up bar from Decathlon makes with the door frame is ridiculously good, compared to the cheaper variants.

Door won't get closed ? 

I don't have an area with no door.

I think once your door closes, you would not get enough gap for the bar to be in place. You would have to mount it every time you need to use.

 

How much gap do you have remaining on the frame once you close the door?

Less than a finger as shown in the pic

Decathlon one is very good. Not sure how amazon one will compare.

Also, you want to put it high enough that then when you hold it, your whole body hangs in the air, arms and legs straight, without a leg cross or a bend, that full range of motion will allow full retraction and protraction and does wonders for your workout.

You can still use it if you don't have enough height but something to keep in mind while choosing the place.

30 days of only back exercises and daily push ups done.

 

 

Have gained some minor muscle in shoulders and upper back for the first time in life but still not low back pain free - doing abs exercises and shadow boxing exercises or sitting for long still brings it back, wonder what I have to do.

 

 

Is it ok to post back pic though ? Haven't seen anyone share hence but was happy to see the change and thought would share.

Privacy isn't an issue.

Just if welcomed or not.

 


That is what I meant. Just say what it is and use an imgur link.

 

Those who don't mind can click and see. If somebody is not comfortable they will not see it.
