The P90X Chin
Up Bar is a highly recommended piece of equipment. It's main use is to help
develop your shoulders, back and arms. Installing it is actually quite easy. The
ingenious design allows nearly all of your weight to be distributed to the
outside of the door frame, so only two small brackets are necessary. These
brackets mainly support the weight of the bar itself, preventing it from
physically sliding down the doorframe, and allowing you to easily remove the bar
when not in use. First follow the included instructions and assemble the P90X Chin
Up Bar. Next, you need to locate a suitable doorframe. Choose one that's out
of the way from high traffic. You may also want to consider a location that's
near your TV where you'll be following along with your P90X workout. The bar
fits residential doorway openings (trim required) 24" to 32" wide (supports up
to 300 pounds), so be sure to measure your doorway. Next, you need to install
the included brackets for the P90X Chin
Up Bar either directly into the top trim or right above, into the wall
itself. Be sure to install them on the appropriate side of the doorwayÑthat is
the side that the door opens in to. Now, standing on a stool or step ladder,
measure to find the center of the top of your door frame. From there, measure
roughly 4" to the left of that point and 4" to the right, and mark each of these
locations. This creates 8" of space between the brackets. Next, screw in the 4
supplied screws per bracket and you're done! Now all you have to do is grab your
P90X
Chin Up Bar and guide the flat top portion through the opening of the
doorway and "hook" it firmly on the brackets. Feel free to pump out a few chin
ups as your reward! Article Source: http://www.ArticleBlast.com |
