    Default door frame chinup bar without drilling/harming door frame?

    Hello everyone,

    I was just wondering if anyone knew of a place i could get a chinup bar that fits in a door frame BUT DOES NOT require drilling or screwing anything into the door frame itself.

    Still living at home and i am quite sure they would not be pleased with holes in their door frame.

    Any help appreciated.

    Go to any GNC, they'll have a chin up bar. I got a 225 lbs. guy to test it out and it worked without the bar slipping. It made the whole wall shake though.

    I am looking for one as well. A co-worker just picked one up at Fitness Depot. He claims it was the last one though.

    I will be calling Sprt Chek etc.

    The Chin-up bar from Beachbody.com is pretty sweet also. It can be removed in a few seconds from the door frame.

    try the one in market mall. they dont have the same one as the website which is weird... the edges are hexagonal. the bracket doesnt fit my door but the circle edge does. gonna be looking for that one.

    i looked around everywhere.. these chin up bars sell out quickly. if anyone sees good ones, give a shout out. ill keep posted.
