Exercising at home can be easy to do. However, since you are only using your body weight as resistance, you are most likely to outgrow the training in a relatively short time. Plus, lack of equipment while working out can be boring, as you are doing the same exercises repeatedly with a few different tweaks. Worry not, as installing a pull-up bar will solve this problem.
By having a pull-up bar at home, you can add variety to your workout and focus on different areas of the muscle. You are also able to focus more on body parts that are hard to train without a piece of equipment, such as biceps, traps, and shoulders. So, here is the list of the top 8 pull-up bars that are in Malaysia.
How to choose the right pull-up bar
To confirm whether the pull-up bar is right for you, you need to picture the workout regiments that you are planning to do with the bar. Then, you need to check the type, material, and price of the pull-up bars.
- Type
If you are new to the workout world and in need of a simple bar, then you can do so as there are many single bars available. However, if you want more workout varieties, then you should go for a bar that can provide that kind of exercise for you.
- Material
As the pull-up bar that you want to purchase will most likely support 100% of your body weight, it is important to check the material that the bar is made of to determine its durability.
- Price
It is always a good idea to set a budget for purchase especially if it is an online purchase as it might have hidden charges or postage. For pull-up bars, the price can range from lowest-highest depending on the type and brand.
