The box describes how the contraption is a multi-gym, but it’s mainly a pull-up bar. Anyways, I ended up paying about $30 + tax for it, and got it in the mail about a week later. Finally, Perfect Fitness is actually a North Carolinian company, so you could say that I’m supporting a local company :smile. The thing is called the Multi-Gym also because you can put it on the ground and use it for dips, but I think my couch is better for that purpose. It also has a variety of grip positions, so you can do pull ups, chin ups and whatever-else-ups. I did a little comparison shopping, and compared to other pull-up bars I looked at, the Multi-Gym Pro is nice that it has padding wherever it touches the wall, and this helps to prevent the bar from damaging the door frame or the wall above it. It’s actually pretty clever how the mechanism works, and since the majority of the load is pushing into the side of the door frame, the pull-up bar is reasonably secure. This changed when I tried my dad’s Multi-Gym Pro, and realized while the pull-up bar does hang on the door frame, most of the force is pushing into door frame and the wall above it when somebody is pulling on the bar. I never bought a pull-up bar before because I thought the ones that hang from the door frame don’t look very secure and safe. I go to the gym fairly often and do pull-ups when I’m there, but having one in my home is a convenient thing to have. The reason I wanted to buy a pull-up bar is because I wanted to improve my upper body and grip strength, and I also wanted something I can hang from and stretch my lower back to help with my sciatica. The Perfect Multi-Gym Pro fully assembled This post is my thoughts on this pull-up bar with some pictures. ![]() He bought the Multi-Gym Pro by Perfect Fitness, and I thought it looked pretty neat so I bought one once I returned to the US. When I went back home for the holidays, I noticed that my dad bought himself a chin-up bar.
