USAGE NOTES

Do not stand on the distance setting bars

The two distance-setting bars are designed solely for adjusting the spread of the KT stand frame and are not intended to bear weight. Thus, we have manufactured them using thin steel tubes to keep the total weight of the pull-up bar frame to a minimum.

If you stand on these bars, they may bend, rendering them unadjustable since the smaller bar will no longer fit deeply within the larger bar

Avoid exposing the KT pull-up bar stand to rain or snow

Made of alloy steel with a powder coat finish, our KT folding pull-up bar isn’t galvanized or stainless.

Its iron-based composition, while tough, is prone to rust if exposed to rain or snow. Water can seep through uncoated holes into the frame, causing internal damage. For longevity, use and store it indoors, or cover it with tarps outdoors.

Please note that our warranty does not cover rusting of the frame, bolts, or nuts caused by long-term exposure to rain or snow.

Don’t Judge Our Product’s Sturdiness by shaking it side-to-side while you are standing on the ground

Some customers, after setting up, tested the KT stand’s stability by shaking it from the ground, prematurely concluding it was unstable and unsafe, leading to unnecessary returns. However, the true test of the KT folding frame’s sturdiness is by hanging on it and performing pull-ups, not just a ground shake.

Despite its lightweight steel frame, which may wobble when shaken from the ground, the product reveals its true sturdiness under the user’s weight during workouts, as the gravity applied stabilizes the structure

Avoid acrobatics or trapeze on the KT folding stand without safety measures

Such as: put heavy things on the legs of KT folding stand frame (example, 4 sand bags, total weight each side is heavier than your body weight), ask 2 people to hold the legs, or drill and screw the legs to the ground…

The lightweight, unfixed design of the KT stand, meant for easy movement and folding, can pose risks if not properly stabilized (the legs may be lifted off the ground and the KT stand frame may topple over)

For safety, you should only swing/fly in the area formed by 4 legs of the KT folding stand frame

We have never claimed that our products are completely sturdy (0% wobble). Even military-grade pull up bars, buried in the ground and anchored at four corners with steel wires, still exhibit some degree of wobble. In contrast, our products are portable and assembled type.

Despite this, we can confidently state that our products are among the most stable self-standing pull up bars in the market compared to similar products.

Numerous professional calisthenics and street workout athletes have confirmed this, having experienced a range of pull up bars in their pursuit of the optimal workout equipment.

note

Although our product is designed for exercises beneath the handlebar (pull-ups, chin-ups, knee raises, leg raises, body swings, etc.), skilled users can still perform “muscle ups” efficiently.

If you have never performed a “muscle up” before, do not attempt to learn or practice this on our product at home, as inexperienced users may cause it to sway significantly. This can impede skill improvement. Train on a buried pull up bar in a park to hone your skills. Once you’ve mastered the “muscle up”, you can comfortably perform it with the KT folding pull up bar at home.

Please ensure to widen the footprint (spread range) of the KT folding frame as much as possible when performing exercises that require safety, such as aerial yoga, body swings, kipping pull-ups, muscle ups, and turn overs…

If you still feel the frame is not as stable as you’d prefer while performing exercises like muscle-ups or body swings, despite having the distance-setting-bars adjusted to their longest length and mounted to the bolts in the normal position (picture 2 and 8), consider mounting the bars to the bolts in the higher position to increase the frame’s footprint (picture 3 and 9).

Alternatively, you can place heavy objects (such as sandbags) into the base of the KT frame to enhance stability (picture 5 and 10). These items should have a total weight greater than your own for safety assurance.

When using the swing chair for children, extend the length of the two distance-setting-bars to the maximum or mount them into the upper holes to broaden the KT frame’s footprint. This safety measure allows the chair to swing further and provide more excitement for children.

Similarly, it is advisable to expand the footprint of the KT folding stand frame as much as possible when hanging a punching bag or performing safety-critical exercises such as aerial yoga, body swings, kipping pull-ups, etc. The wider the footprint, the sturdier the frame. Avoid setting the footprint too narrowly as it may cause the frame’s legs to easily lift off the ground, posing a potential safety hazard.

If you are looking to quickly stretch for back pain relief, you can perform a “dead-hang” without the two distance-setting-bars (DSBs). However, for other movements such as pull-ups, body swings, or if you suffer from severe spinal problems, please mount the DSBs for safety.

jump and swing

The KT folding pull up bar excellently supports ‘jumping and swinging’, a highly beneficial exercise for office workers, those overweight, and teenagers.  Very rare similar products on the market allow you to do this movement comfortably while ensuring the durability of the product and the safety of the users

This exercise engages the full body and is an effective way to burn calories – it primarily targets the abdomen, hips, and spine. Thus, it assists office workers and overweight individuals in losing weight and reducing waistline, while also effectively protecting the spine. Furthermore, it aids teenagers in increasing their height quickly.

For optimal results, repeat the exercise several times a day, ideally every 30 minutes. Each session should consist of 10 to 30 jumps, depending on your health condition.

By consistently exercising daily according to our guidelines, you will start to notice positive changes in your weight, waistline, and back after 30 continuous days. Should your hands become sore, take a break and resume once the pain has subsided.
