Add a Chin Up Bar to your fitness space and get it from Best Home Gym Equipment

Chin-up exercises are done with your palms either facing you or facing each other. These grips are called underhand (palms facing you) and neutral grips (palms facing each other).  Pull-ups, on the other hand, are done while your hands are gripping the bar with the palms facing away from you, called an overhand grip. Yes, this simple-looking difference may seem unimportant, but the truth is, how you hold the bar affects the muscles that are being worked on. For instance, pull-ups focus their effect on the lats or the major upper back muscles, while the chin-ups activate muscles in the chest, back, and arms. In short, for an explosive upper body workout with limited time allowance, it is wiser to do chin-ups rather than pull-ups.

Doorway.  If you have a cramped up gym room, or your fitness space is just a corner in your living room or office, then bulky gym equipment is already a no-no. What’s great about a doorway chin-up bar is that all you have to do is install it to fit the doorframe, and you are all set! This type is the simplest, most inexpensive, and requires the least space, making it the most preferred of those who have big fitness dreams with limited space and budget.

Mounted. Another option for a chin-up bar that requires less workout space, the mounted type is typically bolted onto a wall or a low ceiling. There are mounted chin-up bars that are affordable, but if you want more stable and durable ones to ensure your safety, then opt for expandable ones made by well-known brands that may cost you a couple more hundred bucks. 

Portable. If you are a busy traveller who wants to take his workout routine wherever he goes, then having a portable chin-up bar may be the answer for your effective upper body exercise. 

Tower. This type is more oftentimes a part of the power rack or multi-station home gym. This type is ideal if you are planning to have a full-body workout, and you have the space in your house to fit in a bulky piece of gym equipment like this, such as a renovated garage-turned man cave or a separate fitness room.

Versatility. We are not just talking about the exercise here; we are also including the gym equipment you are using for your chin-ups and pull-ups. The chin-up exercise can be done with monkey bars, doorframe, and whatnot, and your chin up bar can also serve a lot of other purposes other than just for the said routine. Hang a punching bag, attach a resistance band--whatever you feel like doing that needs to be suspended can easily be done using a chin-up bar.
