Comments on Bodyweight Workout Video – No Exercise Equipment Routine
I’ve been a certified trainer for about 11 years now so I figured I’d give some advice.
Space is limited here so anyone who wants to learn more HONEST info, I recommend that all my clients read the six pack system by Mike Geary.
SixPackSystem. com
HOW TO LOSE FAT
1) Cut out carbs in the evenings (eat low “GI” carbs throughout the day)
2) Choose exercises that burn the most calories (NOT sit ups and curls)
Ex. Squats, Lunges, Pull Ups etc.
3) Perform high intensity interval training.
Just one comment on your workout, the squat at the start, the knee bend should be less or more then 90deg, the knee is at its most vounerable at 90deg. Either side of that 90 is best.
The first rep of the crunch, wrong hand position, you will damage you neck with hands behind the head when fatigue sets in.
shes hot O.o
Does anyone else call those squat thrusts burpies? Or just my school? Our squat thrusts are when you jump(thrust) yourself forward while in squat position!
can’t there be ANY exercise videos with women in it without some goob making sexual comments? get a life…get a girlfriend! sheesh.
@tyrantfuryre no i am someone who isn’t sex obsessed!

Watch my experience with the Iron Gym Workout Bar,
Customer Video Review Length:: 6:02 Mins
Watch assembly & workouts for the Iron Gym including pull ups, push ups, dips, knee raises, and body weight rows. The Iron Gym is a very good product. Just don’t expect to do many dips from this machine.

|Great chin-up bar,
The Iron Gym is a great chin-up bar; it works exactly as advertised. It is very easy to assemble, use, and attach and remove from a doorway. It seems extremely stable, and I have no problem believing it could support the claimed 300 lbs.
Some things to keep in mind:
As other reviewers have mentioned, it sits a little too low to be effective for dips, but putting your feet on a low stool helps with that problem.
Apparently (according to the ad copy) the ab straps are now included in the box–they were not included when I ordered mine from Amazon, and shipping is an additional eight dollars for the straps. Bummer.
Assembly is pretty straightforward, but you want to make sure everything is tightened down, or the bar will feel unsteady, especially when used for push-ups and dips. But be careful not to over-tighten the bolts that go through the plastic brace–it looks like it would be fairly easy to ‘strip’ the unreinforced square bolt holes in the plastic brace.
When assembled, the total cross bar length is just a hair under 37″ wide. In addition, a plainly visible metal safety clip has to be installed (by hand, no screws required) between the top of the door frame and the wall. Just a couple of things to consider before choosing location.
Finally, at the time of this review, the Iron Gym is available for the same price at Linens-n-Things. If you have one locally, you could save yourself shipping since Super Saver shipping is not offered for this product.

|Does what it claims,
Assembly was a breeze and took about 10 minutes. The piece that mounts to the back of the door jam is plastic so I was a little weary of whether it would hold up well or not. I did a couple slow pullups using the various positions to make sure it wouldn’t fall apart on me and then did some reps and it feels pretty solid. I’m 180 lbs and it held fine, and supposedly can hold up to 300 lbs. It has grips and handles for the different various of pullups and chinups, which is what drew me to it over the other types I looked at. It can also be used for pushups, dips (although not very effective as you can’t get very low), and situps using the doorway.
Overall, it does was it claims and feels like a pretty good piece of equipment. After a week of regular use it remains solid and hasn’t done any damage to the door or wall. I would recommend this product for those who don’t want to, or can’t, mount a bar.
