Thanks for the review mate. How stable are they when doing pull ups? I've heard some reviews saying it's abit wobbly. I'm also a bigger dude
@HealthFitnessTech
@HealthFitnessTech 2 жыл бұрын
No worries 👍🏼 thanks so much for the comment! 🙏🏽🙏🏽 I do admit it is a little wobbly, but it is solid at the same time. I'll explain because it's a weird answer 😂 I notice that If I'm doing pull ups and Im pulling straight up not going crazy with swinging you'll be fine. It kind of matters how you are pulling on the bar. But at the same time I'm confident it won't fall, and haven't had an issue myself. Hope it was some help

Under; "Things to look out for" if you do your pull up using the same bar but changing the direction you are facing the platform might be more stable. As for clearing the bar that would be be behind you I'm not sure how that will work out, you might have to remove it. If you like please let me know what you think I'm looking at adding B Bars to my workout.

Thanks for the question! Ah can't even do a muscle up 😅 I imagine you need great strength and no momentum to do one on the B-Bars. I also thing put weights on the other side to stabilize and avoid tipping.

Hey would you recommend these or LEBERT xl ? Be my first ones I have no knowledge about this stuff thanks
@HealthFitnessTech
@HealthFitnessTech Жыл бұрын
Thanks Mike, fantastic question! I’ve done some reseatch and my main points between the two are the height and price. From what I have seen the LEBERT XL has a height of 31 inches, which I find would be difficult to do pull-ups. The B-bars have an adjustable height of 33-52 inches. The 52 inches height makes a big difference in the ease of doing pull-ups, especially if you are taller. If you are planning on doing alot of pull-ups, the B-Bars would be the better choice. Next point is price. The B-Bars are considerably more expensive. However, the build quality is excellent. If you see this as an investment then the extra cost would be worth it when you have it for a few years. I still use mine today as a staple for my garage workouts. I hope this was able to assist you, if you have any more questions, I’m happy to help.

How have these held up so far? It feels a bit concerning that the bars swings a bit when doing some chins. They are avoiding to show to much of those chinup positions in their marketing videos. Feels like the company tries to be premium and takes a higher the price when their product really isn't?
@HealthFitnessTech
@HealthFitnessTech Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comment. You've brought up some great points there. In terms of how they've held up, they have held up well. I've even stored them outside under a verandah and they have been exposed to the elements, but are still doing well. I still use them to this day. The only thing I can say is the pins have rusted a bit due to water, but still use them fine. I find the little movements are fine and doesn't impact the use at all. It's just if you are doing pullups/chinups on one side it can tip, due to the weight distribution. I combat this by putting weight plates or dumbbells to make the weight more even. I find the materials are high quality and premium price is most likely for the adjustability. I hope this was able to help 😀

If I’m 6’1 can I do pull ups with them?
@HealthFitnessTech
@HealthFitnessTech 11 ай бұрын
Thanks for reaching out and great question! I’m 5ft 6 (169cm) and I can say that I can’t fully extend my arms. I would say at your height it would be very difficult to do pull-ups with any decent range of motion, since you are a fair bit taller than me and I already feel the squish. In my opinion you would have 2 options, 1) You could put platforms or something at the bases of the B-bars to make the B-bars higher and you would have more room. It would have to be stable so I would worry there. 2) You could opt for the Big Bar instead, which is a big version of the basebar and it would let you do pull-ups easily, but you wouldn’t be able to do dips. To solve this you could even get a pair of cheap dip bars for dips as well. On the website the Big bar is slightly cheaper than the B-bars. I hope this was able to help and all the best making a decision. Please let me know how you go. 👍🏼

@@winsonlimofficial Thanks for pointing that out. I just had a look, and I would love to have it. Although, there's a but. It looks awesome for full size pull-ups, leg raises and those hanging exercises. I think the question is how much you value parallel bars for dips etc, since you only have 1 big bar. In summary I would get it, but I'm basing that from looking at the website.

@@HealthFitnessTech I'm planning to do dips and pull ups as my main exercises. However I am thinking whether the B bars L sit pull ups would be similar to doing a full pull ups with the Big bar. If not, would it be a waste of money to buy both or just the B bars?
@HealthFitnessTech
@HealthFitnessTech 2 жыл бұрын
@@winsonlimofficial Sounds like a solid use case. It's similar to mine. I personally find doing pull-ups with my knees bent or in an L-sit position pretty effective. It actually makes me be a bit stricter because I can't really kip. In my personal opinion, I think the B bars would be adequate, getting both would be a lot of money. The Big bars could be something you may consider down the track, if you feel you would like to have it, but you may also feel you won't need it. Hope this helped.

The only thing I would say about dumbbells, is that you would have to have a good selection of weight depending on experience level. I would need quite a large range 🤣🤣 If I could choose one piece of equipment it would be my trusty squat rack and barbell. I'm lucky to have one and I'll make a video on that soon 😄

@@HealthFitnessTech I have a set of 2 to 32 kg adjustable dumbells. Plus my own body, an adjustable bench, and I can do most things. Of course, for pure strength development, the load is going to be insufficient and a barbell is a must. But, like most people living in cities, I have only a limited space in my apartment and dumbells are more practical and heavy enough for most people who simply want to keep fit
