The Chin-Up Bar will not work on older, ornate molding (such as Victorian molding) that's wider than 4 inches.

The Theragear Chin-Up Bar uses your body's own resistance to create maximum impact where it counts most, such as the pecs, biceps, abs, and obliques. When installed in the doorway, the chin-up bar lets you perform pull-ups and chin-ups, so you can create a strong back and muscular biceps in no time. Just place it between the door frame and your own body weight will keep it in place. You never have to drill holes or attach fasteners. When you're done just pull it down and put it in the closet. It's that simple. Will not damage the doorway and can be installed and removed in under five seconds. It’s a great asset to any home gym.

Product Description: Pull-ups & Chin-ups force you to lift your own body-weight. They are the best strength training exercises you can do for upper-body strength & muscle mass. It requires a very simple piece of exercise equipment -- a chin up bar.


Now what is the difference between Pull-ups & Chin-ups?


• Pull-ups. Palms facing away. Less biceps, more back. Harder.
• Chin-ups. Palms facing you. Work your biceps more. Easier.

Basically the difference is the grip.

Benefits of Pull-ups & Chin-up :

• Build Muscle. Pull-ups & Chin-ups force you to lift your own bodyweight. This stresses your body, building the muscles of your arms & back.
• Grappling Strength. Pull-ups & Chin-ups help any sport which involves gripping, grappling & pulling, like Martial Art or Rock Climbing.
• Carryover. Get stronger at Pull-ups & Chin-ups and you’ll get stronger on the opposite movements: the Overhead Press & Bench Press.
• Shoulder Health. Balancing press exercises like the Bench Press with pull exercises like Barbell Rows & Pull-ups prevents muscle imbalances.
