There is no question that the pull up is an excellent fitness move. Like pushups, chin ups are a timeless exercise that should forever have a place in your workouts. The vast majority of us, however, don’t have room for a standard chin up bar in our homes. For this reason, you may be interested in learning about possible chin up bar alternatives.

Finding a chin up bar alternative that provides you with the ability to get chin up results in the comfort of your own home is a reasonable request. The most obvious choice, then, would be to find a chin up bar alternative that allows for easy placement within a limited amount of space.

The P90X chin up bar provides a great alternative to the bulky in home towers sold by other companies. This door attachment pull up bar allows for easy mounting and simple removal when the bar is not in use. It provides all of the benefits of a full size chin up bar with less space and much easier portability and concealment.

Chin up bar alternatives simply have to deliver the same results as a pull up bar at the gym. Because pull ups work your chest, back, and arms, you want to ensure your chin up bar alternative is giving you those same benefits.

If you determine a door mounted chin up bar isn’t for you, consider a set of resistance bands. When combined with the door attachment like the one in our complete set of resistance bands or the upgrade kit, you can get similar results without lifting your entire body weight.

Think that’s the easy way out? Think again. A resistance bands pull up workout is a serious workout and will deliver great results. Those of you that have done some of the resistance bands workouts in P90X know exactly what I mean. When paired with a door attachment, those unassuming bands are real fitness tools.

If you’ve already started the P90X series, you know what I mean when I talk about “bringing it”. If you haven’t, Tony Horton encourages participators to “bring it” in each P90X workout. This just means he wants you to put your all into every move, and every rep. Do your workout with enthusiasm and determination. If you can increase how challenging the workout is with a P90X chin up bar, then you are definitely “bringing it”.

P90X chin up bars are an excellent way to increase the resistance on several of the P90X DVDs. Although the P90X chin up bar isn’t required, it’s a superb way to multiply your results while doing the P90X program. As you lift your own body weight off the ground, you are challenging your arms, shoulders, back, and core.

Our P90X chin up bar is a simple install and easily removable when not in use. It mounts into nearly any door frame (24-32″). Once mounted, you can hang and remove in seconds, making it an extremely convenient addition to your workout. Unlike some similar products on the market, the P90X chin up bar extends past the door frame, allowing for wide grips as well.

It’s constructed of heavy gauge steel and is extremely durable. This rugged piece of equipment is made to withstand up to 300 pounds and allows for up to 6 different grip positions. It has professional grade foam grips to prevent slippage and help you get your burn on!

Sure you can use resistance bands for the chest and back workouts and still see results. But, if you are looking to maximize your results and truly bring it, the P90X chin up bar is for you. Like sit ups and crunches for abs, nothing quite compares to the workout you get from a classic pull up. The P90X chin up bar is a great way to take your workout and your results to the next level. If you are going to go extreme and do the P90X series, you should do it to the max and do it with the P90X chin up bar.
