Amazon.com Product Description

Expand your workout potential with this broad-reach bar, which is designed exclusively for the Creative Fitness door gym. By itself, the door gym offers a pair of close-grip handles that isolate the muscles within the middle of your back. However, by adding the broad-reach bar, you gain a much wider grip, letting you exercise other muscle groups as well. It's the perfect accessory for performing behind-the-head pull-ups.

Gain a wider grip, allowing for the workout of additional muscle groups, along with increasing the range of workout possible with the Door Gym.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just rests on the Door Gym - not for kids, March 13, 2005

By	Roy Massie (Birmingham, AL United States) - See all my reviews

I got this accessory with my Door Gym and I like it. But, when they say this is an "efficient" accessory - they mean it. It simply rests on the narrower neutral grip posts of the Door Gym. The Door Gym has multiple grip areas, but two of them are perpendicular to the rest of the bar for narrow neutral grip chin ups. The Broad reach bar is wide with downward grips (like lat pull down bar in a gym).

Anyway, this works fine if you have the faith to try it the first time and prove to yourself it won't roll off because your body weight has it pinned on the posts. It has foam covering that adheres to the foam on the Door Gym posts. It will not roll easily, but it does a little. I think it is safe for adults who understand how to use it. Do not give it to kids younger than about 15 (in my estimation) because some of them are too likely to play with, or misuse, it and get hurt.

Even though this thing works and does what you want a broad bar to let you do, I deducted a point in the rating because I don't think they were up front in explaining exactly what it is and is not.

5.0 out of 5 stars Door Gym, July 18, 2006

By	SEPhoto "eyeworks" (San Francisco) - See all my reviews

I purchased the door gym based on the reviews. It is a FABULOUS device and works as advertised. Stable, with multiple workout options from neutral grip, chin-up and pull-up positions, after two weeks of use, I can see the difference and feel it. The broad reach bar just came, and after testing it, I agree that it shouldn't be used by kids, UNLESS they've been shown how to use it; the broad reach bar could slip off if a child, has to jump up to reach it.
UPDATE: This thing is genius. Before, I would STRAIN to do TWO PULL UPS. Now I can do 15. I don't lift weights anymore, I use big flexible bands, the door gym and pushups. I've never felt stronger.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great and is safe, September 19, 2006

By	Kaziglu (Palo Alto, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This is a great addon to the door gym, enables you to do even more upperbody workouts. It rests ontop of the Neutral pull-up bars on the door gym, I think it's perfectly safe, no idea how'd it'd slip off seeing as it grips very well to the neutral bar. Suggest this to anyone that has a door gym obviously and would like more upper body workouts.
