After all, if you are really keen on growing those big boys 💪 you may eventually want to buy some more machines. The humble pull-up bar. One of the best pieces of equipment out there.

Pull-up bars are awesome, but many of them are either too time-consuming to install or too confusing to understand. The reason why we placed the Bells of Steel pull-up bar at the top of this list is because it can be installed in just about any space. It’s also straightforward and sturdy, so you can blast out your reps and get on with your day. My one major callout is that while it can hold any Olympic barbell—the width between uprights is 48 inches—the hole spacing makes it so only Major Fitness attachments can be used.

There are 4 adjustable options over a range of heights that comes all the way down to 160cm, for shorter athletes or those looking to perhaps perform high inverted rows.
