I have a heap of other shit (incline bench, ez curl, dumbells etc) but i keep it under the house as i dont really use it.

Hey dude I see you have the chin up bar the other way around. I was wondering did it fit in nicely like it would normally the other way?

Asking because im intrested in the muscle motion but its 220 cm and my ceiling is only 239 leaving only 19 cm for chinning above the bar. Putting the bar the other way would probably alleviate that problem.

Nice rack btw, cheers.
 
Yeah everything was fine. Its only annoying in that you cant do wide grips or hanging leg raises.

I do Pull Ups with the same grip as my Bench Press, right inside the rings of an olympic barbell. Doess the straight part of the chin up bar accomadate that length?

Thanks
 
I just checked, its slightly narrower. You will get a lot of out the outer neutral grip though.

They are some cool bars in the 3rd pic cunniff, is that one with the angled handles on the most left Home made? is it used like an easycurl with different width grips? or does it work for overhead lifts as well?

I think the americans call it a football bar, awesome for incline benching and floor pressing. Also use it to mimic log for overhead. My old man is a fabricator he made that, the axle in the pic, a log, yoke and farmers. Much cheaper if you know someone handy with metalwork.
