STS Dip and Pull Up Bar

[gogigi]

Happy New Year! Cathe's STS Dip and Pull Up Bar has been out of stock forever. Unfortunately, I bought a dip bar from amazon that I am going to return because I cannot do the pull ups like Cathe and crew do on her brand of dip/pull up bars. Does anyone know of something similar to Cathe's Dip and Pull Up Bar that would serve the same purpose?

Need your advice! I'm also planning to get a Dip/Pull bar from Swedish Amazon.se. The same one is also available on Amazon.com: (Is this the one which is not compatible with Cathe's?)

When I was purchasing dip bars I considered a variety of ones on Amazon. I eventually purchased Cathe's when they came back in stock. What sets Cathe's apart is that it adjusts to 40 inches high for modified pull ups. So although I don't have these, they do adjust almost 40 inches high:

Thanks, but unfortunately, these are not offered on amazon.se! But, if this is the only condition, it seems that the one I'm referring to reach the 40 inch, since ts hight is 41.34"!

Hmmm... your link shows this:

"Adjustable Height】There are 4 heights to adjust at will, just find one that suits you. The heights are: 30.7in/31.6in/33.5in/35.04in/, you can adjust it based on yourself. Perfect for bar exercises, dips, pull ups, push ups, leg raise, bench press and more, works arms, chest, back and muscles."

For vertical pull-ups the extra height is necessary. The shorter ones will work for modified pull-ups where the legs are extended horizontally. Or a pull-up bar for use in a doorway or mounted on a wall will also work for vertical pull-ups. I'm not strong enough for those myself, but I do use one for hanging to stretch my shoulder joint for an impingement issue. Hope you find something that will work!

No entiendo! Does Cathe's support this?! My question still: is this linked one sold on amazon.se/.com compatible with Carthe's?

Don't purchase those! I am going to return a similar set! They do not work for inverted pull ups.

I guess I'm not sure of your question. Based on the description on the Amazon page you linked to - it is not compatible for vertical pull-ups. The maximum height of that one is ~36 inches while Cathe's is 40 inches. Cathe is only 5'2" or so in height so she can use the 40 inch height to do vertical pull-ups, meaning she's able to lift her entire body weight with her legs crossed and feet off the ground. If your height is greater, you may or may not be able to do this and may need to just use a regular pull-up bar instead of the dip bar.

Thank you! These look very similar to Cathe's bars.

 

[Nabbe47]

Don't purchase those!

Thanks, appreciate your advice!

Thanks again! Can see from both responses that it is a "Don't buy it!"

They are fairly similar - the main difference is there is no connector bar to add stability. So be aware if you plan on using them for dips.
