Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar (Extreme Edition) review 2026
No-screw doorway pull-up bar, 300 lb capacity, fits doorways 24"–32" wide with three grip positions
Is the Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar Worth It?
Best doorway pull-up bar. A long-running, widely-used doorway bar design with a real 300 lb rating and genuinely tool-free installation — a low-cost way to add pull-ups and other bodyweight moves at home.
Iron Gym Total Upper Body Workout Bar Pros & Cons
- 300 lb weight capacity per the consistently-repeated manufacturer/retailer spec
- No-screw leverage-mount installation — no drilling into your door frame
- Three grip positions (narrow, wide, neutral) for varying which muscles you target
- Iron Gym also sells a newer, differently-designed doorway bar under a separate model — confirm you're ordering the Extreme Edition specifically
- Leverage-mount bars can mark door trim over time without padding
- No independently confirmed outlet review found; price sourced from a retailer search listing, not a directly loaded page
