Portable Pullup & Dip Bar
January 1. Bring on the pushups and dips. And by pushups I mean these delightful orange hangover cures, and by dips, the leftover guacamole and beefy chili queso to continue the New Year's celebration through NFL Sunday. Maybe tomorrow I'll think more about the fitness applications of the terms, and look into getting one of these portable Pullup & Dip bars so I can pound out the reps from anywhere. In my living room with the wall mount. From a tree outside or at one of the vertical structural beams in my office with the wraparound ratchet strap. In the...wait. Tomorrow is New Year's Day Observed.
That's another holiday.
Psssh!
I don't have to think about getting off my lazy ass and losing all the lard that's accumulated there for at least another 48 hours.
The Pullup & Dip Bar breaks down to fit in a backpack and then reassembles on any sturdy outdoor support in less than a minute, or latches onto a bolted-in indoor wall mount. In addition to the bar's namesake exercises, you can adjust the equipment orientation and your body position to pound out a dozen more moves, including leg raises, muscle-ups, L-sits, Bulgarian lunges, and a variety of pushups.
The Pullup & Dip Bar is made of rustproof stainless steel.
