Does this work on doorway pull up bars for taller people, where you have to bend your knees to free hang?

I am on the shorter side, 5'4", however this assist DOES work if you bend your knees also. The point is to lift your body weight and legs bent or not doesn't change that. We started using a chair for assisted pull ups in our doorway, but this perfect pull up is so much better. Better range and control and you can see your improvements (or not!).

Hmmm. I think it would. It might be better to get one of the single bands for that though, because you would have more control over the length of the band there. Take a look at some youtube videos about how people do that.

You can use it, but you will have to use the 'assist' to tilt your body at more of an angle. So you would be keeping your legs straight and body straight but your body will be at more of a 45° angle. The only problem I see with this is that you are not working the same muscles. I guess you could put it on your ankle, make it really tight and keep your knees bent during the pull up. You would use your leg muscles a bit to properly benefit from the assist. As I have never tried this I do not know how it would work.Hope this helps.

Having used it, I would say only if you pulled your legs up in the front. I installed a pull up bar on the wall just to be able to use these.

Hello, If the pull up bar has a traight part and you have like 30/ 40 centimeters above to get youre feet in it will work on every thing. I,m not a seller but these things make you happy, i ,am for having them, thay also feel realy secure, it,s realy the best you can have!. Good luck with it.

I believe you want to have the bar all the way up. It looks like it will work as you can pull bar towards you to clear and slip into the bar holder. However it may not be as highly effective a block because of its location (compared to center).

Yes, it will work with your pull-up bar. The hook at the top of the chin-up assist is big enough to support different size bars. There is also a clip that will keep it from coming off the pull-up bar.

They will work on any type of pull-up bar that has enough clearance from the hook of the boot to the top of the bar and the bar is not more than 1.12 inches thick. Be careful of open-ended bars with a short spread as your boot may slip off the bar through exertion.

It is fully adjustable, it should work as long as you have vertical bars to rest it against.

I think it would. I would give it a try. This grab bar works really great!!!

I'm not an expert, but I know that getting the balance just right so the door neither falls down or pulls itself up is pretty tricky. Therefore I suspect that a longer length may not work well through the whole range of motion. This is a pretty tricky operation and can be dangerous. If you are not sure you should contact a professional installer.

Yeah, it does.... if you pass the handle through the loop that the door stop is attached to, the whole thing slides down and cinches to the bar, with no way to slide off. It's really secure. My JGXT has a label sewn to it that shows how to do this, and I think they have it on the website too.

Yes your height would not impact the function of this device. Your stretch range is based on the length you determine and is based at the top of the choosen door you use

I primarily use these straps for dead lifts and rows. They work great and allow me to train well beyond my hand strength. I have used them for pull downs, but never chin ups. I would imagine they would work fine as long as the bar is low enough to get them wrapped properly. If you have to jump up to the bar you won't be able to get them on unless you used a stool or chair.

hello,yes i just measured that pull up bar from the floor,it's 81 inches or 206 cm high from the floor, you can use this tower with that chair to reach that bar and it won't tip over or move at all because those for legs (the bottom part of this towel) long enough (23 inches) on both side, you have to swing very hard if you want to tip it over ,i don't think you have to worry about that,make sure to tight all those nuts well so it won't have any movement at all, and after you reached the bar try to let your body in that hanging position without too much swinging, sorry about my English it's my second language, have a good exercice!!! c ya!

Yes, I think it will but don't expect an 'infinite' adjustment. I am not much taller than you, and it works for me.
1647242
I would think so. It has a lot of adjustment to the height. I am 5' 10 I would think so, I am 5'10" and I can adjust it to go at least 5 more inches. Depends on how much you want your arms to bend while you are walking with it. I doubt you would want to keep your arms straight at the elbows.

Yes it does work. I took it off because my son was too tall to use the door and it is still just fine. Still sits stable. It really is just a decoration, I think.

I use it on a deep pile carpet and it stays sturdy for all exercises, however if I "kip" during a pullup to leverage momentum, it will rotate a bit toward me. Not enough to tip, but disconcerting enough. If you're on a deep pile carpet I'd recommend not flopping around too much on the bar.

No, I dont think so. I think your knees would hit even if you make sure you get the one where the front bars curve out. The handbars would be okay; I'm 5'4 and I hold low on them but i very occasionally hit a knee at my height. If you can find one, i'd try it first with your height. I do really like mine!
