I saw a late-night infomercial a long time ago for the Iron Gym pull up bar, and it looked pretty good.

But lately I’ve been trying to get more active so I can actually keep my weight in control. So I decided to give the Iron Gym a try.

I thought I might goof around with the Iron Gym then give it to one of my guy friends after I got bored with it. I was surprised when I got it and actually really found it straightforward and a little fun!

It feels so good to really get your muscles going, but I hardly have the time to go to the gym or jog outside. I usually use some little free weights that I got at a garage sale a while back, but even after working out, it didn’t seem like they did anything. I found that the Iron gym really helped me get an intense workout without taking a long time.

Watch The Iron Gym Pull Up Bar Commercial Video As Seen On Tv

The first time I used it, it was quite apparent that the bar was designed by someone in the military, there is nothing you don’t need, but all the features you could want in a compact little thing.

I used the Iron Gym As Seen on TV (of course) to find a good routine for myself:

  • I hang the bar from my door and do two kinds of pull ups
  • I drop the bar on the floor and do crunches
  • I do as many pushups as I can after I can’t do any more crunches
  • Finally, I go back to crunches to really target my midsection

This all takes less than 15 minutes and really helps me get my blood going in the morning before work.

Sometimes, I also use the Iron Gym Ab Straps to do some floating crunches after work. But they’re super intense, so I’ve got to have a lot of energy after work.

Once I’m done working out, I just put the Iron Gym bar behind my door and go on with my day. Best of all, it didn’t mess up my doors or need to be mounted.
I really can’t recommend it enough, you could even bring it into the office for a quick lunch-break workout to battle the mid-afternoon slump.

Here is a tip, they are all priced the same, so i went to bed bath and beyond and used a 20% coupon and get it less expensive than anyother place. it is easy to build, I have not used it yet, but it looks great on my door

I bought an Iron Gym at my local sporting goods store. The system works really well and took about 5 minutes or so to put together once out of the box.

It definitely gives you the various angles to work all the muscles involved in your back, traps, biceps etc..

I do agree that it does take a little while to receive the ab straps in the mail, and one who likes to get an extra burn could actually do floating crunches while maintaining a flexed bicep muscle.

The only issue i have had with the iron gym is it seems to be limited to somebody under 6′2″ or so, I am 6′5″ but luckily have shorter torso for my height and the system works well.

I do recommend it definitely for the price and ease of setup as well as storage.

I just got this item today and I couldn’t be more pleased! The assembly was extremely simple and took about 5 minutes tops. Everything is as easy as it says. The bar fits perfectly and is surprisingly sturdier than I had expected. One thing to note is that it doesn’t fit in my closet doorway, which is 3′ wide (I believe the bar goes up to 32″ wide). I was a little nervous about the door frame breaking, but I’m not anymore. I only weigh 150 lbs., but after my 190 lbs. roommate was able to do it, I felt pretty safe. In addition, doing push-ups with the bar is, to me, a hidden bonus. I just thought, oh, I can do push-ups on it, no big deal, but the handles allow you to perform much lower push-ups; 10 push-ups with this felt like 30 on the ground. Sit-ups seem to work well (putting your feet under the bar for leverage), and dips are okay. You can’t get too much motion with dips on this, but it still works.

One thing to note: I bought mine through Walgreens, and I would suggest anyone else do the same thing. The price is the same, but you don’t have to pay S&H and you don’t have to wait for delivery. Also, I heard of people having issues when ordering from TV.

i had seen these on tv as well and i thought what a great idea! so i was strolling through the “bed, bath and beyond” the other day and there it was. i bought it immediatly. so at home i put it all together and proceeded to put it to use. what a great upper body work out my abs are sore today and also my triceps and biceps. i believe in no time i can achieve the upper body strength i have been looking to achieve with this nifty machine. my only complaint is the ab straps have to be ordered seperatly, supposedly “free” but 8.99 shipping and handling. so here i sit slummed next to the mail box waiting for my mail man to arive… :)

I received an Iron Gym for Christmas from my son. I am going to be 60 next month. I cannot actually do a pull-up, but I use a chair to help with some of the pressure and I do it that way. It is amazing! I’m sure that I am using muscles that have never been used before. My husband and I have it hanging in a doorway to the dining room and because we see it all the time, we remember to use it. What a great, inexpensive way to work on muscles.
