It should be a building requirement for every builder when they build or renovate a property, to install at least one pull-up bar somewhere in the property.
Agree! Mandatory Sunshine and bodyweight training would solve most of society’s problems…and I am only very slightly joking
REVIEW: PULL-UP DAR/ SQUAT RACK BY CAP STRENGTH
I like "If you don't have a 4 year old it will take 48 minutes" 😂. All jokes aside, that time building something with your kid is priceless.
Thanks for the review on this brother it’s tough finding decent equipment at relatively affordable prices during these tough times and this helped me make my decision 🙌🏾
Right on, happy to be able to help. Sorry for the sloe reply, I took some time off social
Thanks for the review. Helped me make the decision to by this over others!
Thank you. I've been looking for solutions for quite a while now, finding decent info that is surprisingly hard. You helped immensely.
Happy it helped. I replaced it after 3 years for a new red one. Price is cheap so I didn’t mind
Best hour and a half, time well spent. Merry Christmas buddy. Videos are great.
Thank you 🤝
Hello!
Thank you so much for this review. As a new calisthenics content creator, this review is exactly what I was waiting for. I needed a pull bar where I could install rings and do muscle ups and it seems like this is the way to go. Just subscribed and like!
Thanks! If you need to swing to do your muscle ups you'll need to weigh your rack down or anchor it. Since I don't swing its not been a problem for me
Hey man,
How is this rack doing outside. Has it rusted at all?. I just got mine and its outside so I am curious.
Thanks,
i’m curious on this as well
Its still good to go after almost 18 months. I will do an updated review
Great review! Is the rack still holding up? I read some reviews that said it started wobbling during pull-ups after a few months of use - not fixed by tightening the hardware. What's been your experience? Thank you for your time.
Mine is holding up great, even in the elements. I have a nice full rack/cage in the house, but Its too nice to leave outside in the weather, this was perfect
They say you need to place all nuts and bolts and then tighten them all at the same time once they’re all in place. Most people probably miss that, leading to squeaking and wobbling.
Only problem is you can only put olympic plates on one side. The other side is a bar holder. This is quite inconvenient. I'm trying to order another one of the plate holders, but CAP so far doesn't respond.
Hi JT, thanks for the great info.
You are very welcome. I appreciate the kind words
Is the height adjustable? I saw you stayed you’re 5’8, and your feet were close to the ground hanging. Looks good though!
It is not adjustable, unfortunately
@@JerryTeixeira Hi Jerry, Did you build your body exclusively on bodyweight or did you use weights?
Have you kept this outside the whole time? Wondering how this has help up against the elements. I want one to be kept outside on a concrete patio.
Thank you for sharing
You are welcome
Hey Jerry, love the videos and I'm gaining a lot from them! How's it handle outside after a while? I'm assuming you have it out on all weather conditions? Thanks!
Yes it’s been out in the rain and my sprinklers since I bought, holding up very well
Just got it for $80 and actually had the same as you, the Titan F T-3 squat stands, good shit bro👍
Yeah the T3 is great, it will last the rest of my life. Nice buy
@@JerryTeixeira Agree, Titan has great products
Where are y’all finding it for 80?
I wouldn't get it if you plan on squatting a lot of weight. The set-up will rock around a bit and it feels sketchy. It's great for pull ups though
Yeah its not something I would look at for more than 225 lbs or so of weight for squats. And even then if your goal is to use it for a squat rack I would go with a cage rather than a single stand. But yeah, it’s great for bodyweight
@@JerryTeixeira I prefer to leave everything packaged and sealed so I can bench the box
@@JerryTeixeira another guy jas squatted 325 countless times. His video is on youtube
This video by Jerry is by far the best review of the Cap strength squat rack/ pull-up bar.
Hi Jerry. Thanks for the review. What is the experience now after 4 years. Can it stay outside because of the rain? Thanks for your answer. Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭
It can, but some rust around the bottom. I bought a second one exactly like it this year and I bring it up onto the concrete out of the grass after use and that’s helped quite a bit. It’s easy to move
@@JerryTeixeira Heyhey, cool of you to reply so quickly. Great, that helps me a lot. Because in my garden it has almost only concrete.
@BeatLuginbuehl happy to help. You should be good. I didn’t/don’t mind replacing it every few years either, if need be considering it’s not very expensive
Hi Jerry: that's the aluminum version that you have, right? Just want to make sure before pulling the trigger. Greatly appreciated your video and look forward to watching more.
Rinus De Gier it’s steel, the link is in the description, this grey one is 85.00 free shipping with prime, they have multiple colors but the colored paint is like 35.00 more
Wondering could it handle a kipping muscle up?
Yes but you would want to anchor it or place a pair of 45 lb plates on the plate holder
@@JerryTeixeira ohhh I gonna try that later! Thanks
Have you got any recommendations for a doorway pull up bar? As a newbie with not much space indoors or outdoors a place to hang is the only thing missing from my training currently. Loving the channel so far. Keep it up!
Lloyd Gregory yes check out bodyweightstrength.fit and click on equipment recommendations. I found in I like there, I just haven’t personally used it yet, but it allows you more foot clearance than most
Does anybody know where I could buy a men’s health squat rack or a dtx squat rack delivered to Ireland? Thanks.
Just got one through your link. Got tired of doing rings in my doorway lol
Sweet! Let me know how you like it. I started with a doorway bar as well.
Looks like an affordable way for people to enter and progress in the world of bodyweight strength training.
Thanks for the review JT!
Wes thank you, Wes. I always appreciate you.
You think this is still worth it with the price gouge? I really need something for pull ups. It comes out to $200+ from a warehouse seller on amazon
Normally I would say no, but these are obviously unusual circumstances. It has held up well and is a decent piece of equipment.
Yo @Kevin tala just ordered it off amazon myself how long did it take to ship?
It’s $100 now! I just got one
Those biceps in your thumbnail are unreal
Thanks you, much appreciated
@@JerryTeixeira What's the secret? One-armed chin-ups?
Is this good for muscle ups ?
did you watch the video? it was shakey with pull ups
Great review, don't have the space for a power cage so I'm considering one of these. Can I ask how tall you are? I want to make sure the bar is going to be tall enough for me.
I am a bit over 5'8"
Exactly how tall is this bar? Does it come with J hooks? And have you weighted it down and tried muscle ups? The reason I'm asking is because I wasnt to get into doing crossfit type movements, but I don't want to spend a lot of money on a rack. I guess I want to know if this is a sturdy overall rack.
Paris Harper it’s 85 inches tall. It is fine for muscle ups if you place plates on the stands on the back base. It comes with two red j hooks.
If you live near a dicks sporting goods you can get an Olympic bar and 260 lbs of weigh for 200 dollars
Paris Harper the link in the description takes you to the page where they have a diagram of it along with length and width dimensions as well
Could this unit be used with Olympic Rings for pulling exercises?
Yes, this is the one that is in all of my videos, including ring muscle ups. The link is in the amazon link is in the video notes, but the price is 100 to 110, when I bought it it was 85 on sale
Hi Jerry, great review and nice front lever. Do you what’s the exact diameter of the pull up bar? On other Amazon replies from users,
they gave out different diameter sizes of the bar so it’s quite confusing. I got fairly small hand so want make sure.
Thanks ahead.
I will go out an measure it in the morning and reply, sorry for the delay!
Jerry Teixeira Thank you very much!
1.5 inches across
@@JerryTeixeira Thank You so much Jerry.
Is it possible to use this if i'm only 5'5?? Please say it's possible to adjust height. If it isn't, is there an alternative that's around the same general price?
Definitely, I can grab it with it jumping at all and I am 5’8” so you are good to go at 5’5”. It doesn’t need to be adjustable
Is going wide on pullups worth it?
Because I started doing shoulder width recently and I noticed my lats were getting worked better than the wider one.
Great review Jerry. I’m going to give it a go,
Could you please help, I’m looking at this rack on amazon and it says the weight capacity is 500 lbs but I’m reading the reviews and people are saying it’s 300 lbs. what is the actual cap? Talking about how much weight I can put on a barbell btw.
its 500lbs as per the manufacturers web site
Jerry Teixeira no I found out it’s actually 300 lbs.
@@jaymoar3561 ive seen a video of a guy squatting 400 on it. it's 500. it's probably even more than that, as companies want to avoid liability
Kang Rookie I hope you’re right but I received this rack and in the manual In bold black letters it says 300 pounds max capacity.
Momentum muscle is king 👑 🤣
😂 guys know how to work that muscle for sure
Hey Jerry , I am 16 years old and 1,70 m tall , do you recomend a rack that is 2,2 m tall to do calisthenics?
Does anyone know if Jerry Teixera built his body exclusively on bodyweight or if he uses weights?
Cap strength the same as everyday essentials It looks exactly the same i ordered on amazon maybe it would be more sturdy on a flat surface and weights on it you think i could bench 250 on this ?
you can for sure, just anchor it or put some weights on the stands
Thanksssssss i bought one
Enjoy it, mine has been outside in the elements for 2 years. The sun is fading the paint and I have a bit of rust around the bottom, but I purposely left it in the elements all this time and It still does the job
How wide is it? can i use a 6 foot barbell on this rack?
Yes it’s designed for a standard Olympic bar
@@JerryTeixeira but what about 6 foot 1 inch barbell
Any update on how the rack has held? The only thing I have worried about is the two piece post
Yes I did an update video This summer where I repainted it. It held up great. The only issue was rust around the bottom but this is because I purposely left it in nt grass and sprinklers to test it’s durability,
I just bought a replacement rack (same one) now after 3.5 years.
Going to move it off the grass onto the patio after use this time to keep it out of the sprinklers and it should last for a decade or more
Yo is that Bakersfield??? If it is I live here too 😂 mine just came in the mail from Amazon with no instructions, by chance is there any way you have a video of you constructing it?
it is Bako, I can shoot some pics of all of the jonts so you can see how its connected if you would like
Can I leave mine outside? Will rain ruin it?
It wont if you keep it out of the grass when its wet
would you be so kind and demo a muscle up on it by adding those additional weights since that would be the only reason I obtain this rack
instagram.com/p/B3Vk6VcAV-1/?igshid=8foxd4jiqskz this is a ring muscle up from seated without the weights. If you are doing a lot of swinging you would probably want to add the weight. But I don’t kid or swing so that’s not an issue. But if you do kip or swing then you would eat to weigh the rack down
Do you know if anyone makes a dip handle for the cap pull-up bar?
I have not been able to find one, but I am talking to a machine shop where I live about making one. I’ll know soon and will keep you posted
Thank you so much! You are awesome!
Where I can buy one? And what it is cost?
IT was 85 when I bough it on sale, it it’s normal 100 to 110/120 depending on color on amazon, the link to it is in the video notes.
If you have questions on it let me know
400, that’s a dream today for a t3
Dude, it has skyrocketed over the last few years. I should have filled the garage with them
Will this rust if kept outside?
I have left mine in the rain and sprinklers all year to test it, There is minimal rust. I will buy another one is a couple years to replace this one since they are inexpensive. But if its easy for you to move it out of the rain and sprinklers it will help extend the life
Big biceps my man
My door way is too short and isn’t wide enough ..so I feel limited...I want this half rack but my ceiling is too short smh
I’ll see if I can find a shirt rack and I’ll post the link
Jerry Teixeira thanks 😊
Missed the boat on this....now listed for $130
Yeah it was 99 at the time for the non grey colors and 110 for the colorful models, price has crept up since then
Jerry Teixeira I’ve been watching your stuff non stop for the last few days! Thanks so much for posting, it’s really great and your a natural teacher! I have twin 12 yr old boys and this is a program we can do together. Do you have a take on aerobic work outside of the program? Thanks
This bad boy is now over $200
Yeah the manufacture isn’t selling any right now on amazon and so it’s all people reselling: flipping at a premium. It will be nice when manufacturing normalizes after all these COVID disruptions
What is the weight capacity?
500
@@JerryTeixeira thank you
make sure you eat alot more protein for that momentum muscle to grow stronger,, great review thanks im gonna get one,,
😂😂 it will serve you well, mine has been in the backyard in the rain and elements and still good to go
Is this only package over there close to the fence? What are dimensions?
Yeah just a single package. You want the United dimensions assembled? 85” tall, 50” deep and 48” wide
Jerry Teixeira Thanks! I meant disassembled dimension, packaged and weight. I’m considering how to bring it to Europe as cheap as possible.
Yeah it’s just the one box, There are similar setups available overseas though. The brand isn’t super important as long as the dimensions are similar
Great review, I’ve been looking for a pull up bar and this looks perfect for what I need. My only question is, I’m 6’ 1” so is this going to be tall enough for me to stretch out for pull ups? Thanks again
I have a similar issue, although I'm 6' 7'', would love to know if it's suitable
6 months late with my reply, very sorry about that. youtube hid your question and I just saw it under "potential spam" sorry about that. I do think you could make this work in hollow body, which would be pullups with a slight posterior pelvic tilt and your feet forward about a foot. I do think you are likelu to hit the ground with your feet if you were stretched straight out in dead hang. The bar is 85 inches. so you could take 85 inches from the floor and see where that places your hands?
actually 6'7! read that wrong at first. you can do them even at your height, but you are going to beed to be in more of an L-sit position with legs at about 45 degree angle relative to the torso. If you are decent already at pullups you could swing it that way. It is going to cause a deeper engagement of the anterior core muscles and really build your abdominals and hip flexors and not just your back
Can u do muscle up on it?
Yes, on rings no problem. If you want to do bar muscle ups you will want to anchor it
Price has doubled now at $180.00
Yeah, everything has post covid, I did an updated review
The Pretendemic threw a bunch of stuff off track... as it was expected to do. 🫗
how tall is it
Are the BANDS good enough? Do we REALLY need the bar?
The bands are ok, they are not as good as a solid weight of progressive bodyweight. The intensity is variable over the range of motion, you aren’t going to build strength as well nor hypertrophy as well with bands. Also it’s I credibly difficult to imitate a pull up with bands.
Bands have a place, they are fine to use, but they do not replace progressive body weight training nor standard weighted resistance trining where you have a non variable load over the full range of motion
@@JerryTeixeira so what do bands do? Build muscle mass, and improve mobility, thats it right?
Hey, I just saw the portable version of the pulling tool, and it looked like it attached to any tree, equal effect, and if so, you recommend?
Living room doesn't fit all this stuff
You can hang rings or a bar from anything. Bands still can be used to build muscle, they are just a less effective tool is all
@@JerryTeixeira ok thank you for telling us! ♡♡♡ good channel thumbs up on your hard work!
It shakes when you pull up on it.. looks unstable
For the money it looks like it does the job, now to persuade the wife l need one in the garden/ yards!!!
Clicked on your link and apparently it's $120 now and not 85 anymore. A company that jacks up their prices like that will never ever get my business. They are on my shit list of companies to never buy from now.
it was 85.00 on a sale for the grey model only..
Now it’s $250 and expected delivery is July
It’s out of stock from the manufacturer on amazon. Nearly Everything from every manufacturer is, so what you are seeing is private sellers flipping their units, not the actual manufacturer gouging. Of course since the government has everyone locked down the manufacture can’t make of ship any new units to amazon. Fitness equipment manufacturers aren’t “essential businesses”
Jerry Teixeira oh ok, thanks
Unfortunately because of the corona virus prices have doubled for this product.
The price has been 120 for a while through the manufacturers amazon shop, the reason the price is much higher due to COVID is because these are private sellers scalping
Yeah until the actual manufacturer has them back in stock on amazon you are liking at buying units someone has scalped/ resold. Thanks to COVID lockdowns nearly all fitness equipment is suffering this fate
Jerry Teixeira yeah I’m just gonna wait it out and figure something out maybe a diy from Home Depot
You can do that, or you can do a doorway pull up bar and hang rings from it. That’s what I stated on. Used it for over a year
Can you use rings on these?
Of course, these are what my rings hang from in all of my videos.
@@JerryTeixeira Got the rack and the rings. Working on learning all the movements you gave me and starting on Monday !
Didn’t even do a muscle up 😪
Lmfao this now costs 100 dollars more a year later.... how times change
i'm pretty sure half the crossfit people are trying to build their momentum muscles doe 😃🤣
How tall is the bar exactly based on the height?
I can measure it for you, it’s 85 inch height and so the bar is maybe 83. I’ll tape it for you
@@JerryTeixeira Yes please, need to know to see if it can fit in my garage lol
Video starts at 2 min you're welcome...
I added that just now as a time stamp. I did this review when I had just started the channel and had no clue what I was doing. Thanks for pointing that out
It is $120 and not very stable. I would suggest something you can bolt into the stud like:
www.amazon.com/dp/B019H3C8L4
It was on sale when I bought it, and I have no issues with it being unstable. A bolt to the wall option is fine for those who want to bolt something to the wall, of course, but that isn’t what i wanted. I want to train outside in the sunlight so I wanted a free standing rack. You can secure this to the Ground. Or just put 45lb plates on the plate holders at the base and it is very stable. I don’t swing around in an uncontrolled manner so I have not had to worry about anchoring it, but you can definitely do that if needed.
I didn’t purchase this because I don’t have a 4 year old to help me assemble. Need to find a girlfriend before I can buy this. Nice review though.
I am leasing my now 6 year old out for assembly assistance. LMK if interested
Looks like a TX backyard
Cali, but I wish TX. Hope to move there one day
FYI it costs a lot more now
Yes, everything does
so much for the great price you paid, they are totally gauging on this item now.
On amazon? It’s out of stock from the manufacture, probate sellers may be gouging, but it’s not the manufacturer
@@JerryTeixeira yes on Amazon
Right but it’s not the manufacturer. It’s small sellers who bought and are flipping them, the manufacturer sold out and they are out of stock on amazon. If you look at who is selling them it’s individuals flipping them. Cap has been pot of stock for weeks, 119.99 was the normal price. I paid 85 when I bought mine when they had a sale on them, they have been 109 to 119 since November or so
@@JerryTeixeira Yes, I see that It isn't the company.
Definitely unfortunate that people are flipping and gouging
Definitely not from N.E.
No, but I would love to visit
