Product Description Iron Gym is the multi function training bar that combines every exercise you need to build a powerful upper body. Its the ultimate body sculpting and strength building tool that helps shape the upper body and tones your midsection.

It is designed to fit residential doorways 24" to 32" wide with doorway trim or molding up to 3 ½ inches wide.
Amazon.com Product Description Strengthen your back, biceps, and other upper body muscles in the comfort of your living room or dorm with the Iron Gym workout bar. Designed to fit conveniently in most doorway frames or sit on the floor for pushups, dips, and sit-ups, the Iron Gym is an ideal choice for people who want to get fit without buying expensive, space-intensive weight sets. When installed in the doorway, the device lets you perform pull-ups and chin-ups, with three grip positions--narrow, neutral, and wide--for working the inner and outer back. Once you're done with your back workout, you can quickly move the Iron Gym to the floor, where you can perform pushups while facing down, tricep dips while facing the other way, or sit-ups using the Iron Gym for foot stability. The Iron Gym--whose durable steel frame installs quickly without tools or fasteners--holds up to 300 pounds and is designed to fit residential doorways 24 to 32 inches wide, with doorway trim or molding up to 3.5 inches wide.

Pull up bar that's easy to use July 27, 2010 C. Evans (Ft Worth, TX) pretty easy to install and use - like the fact that I can take it down and put it away with no hassle what-so-ever
Works great, fits door @ 30 inches July 27, 2010 guywhoboughtone This pull up bar is the best one for the price
Fits my door that is 30 inches wide
that is all
Great product July 24, 2010 Steve S Does exactly what it claims. Very sturdy for the price. Pull ups are a great way to get a convenient arm and back workout. Great product overall.
Awesome product, why didn't I think of this? July 21, 2010 P-Nasty 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Most "As Seen on TV" products should only be allowed to exist in a landfill. The Iron Gym is an exception. This product is a convenient piece of equipment to do many different exercises with. It is a great substitute for permanent doorway pull-up bars.
With this being said, there are a few things worth noting. The Iron Gym WILL mark up your wall and/or door trims. I have used it at three different residences, and it left marks every time. If you are over six feet tall like I am, you will have to almost pull your knees to your chest to do a full pull up. The product really isn't to blame, but it can be annoying. You can't do dips effectively with the Iron Gym even though they advertise this feature. The foam grips tend to rotate and slide off quite easily. Also, I am not sure if it was a misprint or not but my box clearly stated that ab straps were inside. When I opened the box I found a mail in order form to buy ab straps; buzz kill.
I am still going to give this great product 5 stars. I implore you to find a more versatile piece of equipment for $20.
Works as Intended - Very Pleased July 20, 2010 JD 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
First, I'm a small guy so this bar handles my weight without flinching. A heavier person,
say above 200 lbs might notice a little flex on the bar or creaking of the door frame which
should be expected. So here are the pros and cons:
Pros:
*Good price.
*The workout bar was easily assembled.
*My doorway is about 30" and sits in a corner, and the bar
still fits with no problems.
*The bar feels sturdy.
*The padding is pretty decent.
*Allows a few different hand positions.
*Easy to remove and install (literally a few seconds)
*Fun to use (I use mine daily)
Cons:
*The plastic bar that rests above the door frame is bowed, but it
doesn't seem to affect its function.
*Doesn't come with arm straps (You have to buy them separately)
*Not stored or put away easily (mine sits propped in the corner)
*Could leave light scuffs on your door frame, possibly damage depending
on your weight and the type of door frame you have.
*Slept with it under my pillow, didn't make me "ripped" as promised.
*Attracts UFOs
Most of the cons I listed really aren't much of a problem for me. So I would
say I'm pretty happy with the product and would recommend it.
