Product Details
Cable Pulley System
We continue to expand our strength product line with the FitBar® FP-3 Lat Pulldown Cable Pulley Attachment. This is by far the best alternative to a cable pulley machine on the market. The pulley utilizes a high-quality needle bearing for ultra-smooth operation. The pulley assembly attaches directly to any 1.5” or smaller bar, minimizing the unwanted swinging of the weight plates from other cable pulley alternatives. The FP-4 Seated Cable Row Pulley Attachment includes the benefits of the Lat Pulldown unit, and includes a mounted pulley so you can do seated cable rows, or when attached to the base of your squat rack, cable biceps curls. Included with either unit is a pair of our highly-rated heavy-duty Pull Up Handles. Each handle has a 200 lb capacity, has a comfortable high-quality foam grip, and includes S hooks so you can also use them as pull up handles when not using the cable pulley attachments. The FP-3 and FP-4 are rated for 400 lbs when using both pull up handles. You can also purchase the units without the pull up handles and weight plate chain and use your own cable attachments and loading pin.
Doorway Pull Up Bar
The FitBar Doorway Pull Up Bar is one of the highest pull up bars on the market, so most people won't have to scrunch their legs to do pull ups in doorways! Even better, we are the only company say that our pull up bar will not damage your door trim! This is due to the oversized, rubber-coated white pads that distribute the load and doesn’t leave marks. It can be adjusted to accommodate wide walls, and can be used with all our hooked grip products and suspension straps. The top bar spins for extra grip challenge. The FitBar Doorway Pull Up Bar is Made in USA and is in stock for immediate shipment. The bars are 1.25" in diameter and have 33.5" of usable grip for wide grip pull ups. The interface to the door trim is a large white rubber-coated pad, so it won't leave marks, and the possibility of pull up bar doorway damage is virtually eliminated. Pair this with our FitBar Pull Up Straps, and you have a home gym for a full range of bodyweight exercises. Check out some of our pull up bar Package Deals we have curated in our shop.
Ninja Obstacles
The SG line of Ninja Obstacles are tough, commercial-grade obstacles that are great additions to ninja warrior gyms and obstacle course rigs. The first two obstacles, SG-1 and SG-2, utilize our tough, 3” diameter molded ball. Both can be used with rings. For additional challenge, the cannonballs on the SG-2 spin, so precise hand placement and strong grip are required. The SG-3 is a T-grip, but the grips spin! These utilize our rubber-coated steel tube grips, and add additional challenge to a standard Tee handle obstacle. The Hanging Nunchucks provide for a challenging vertical grip, and feature our brushed rubber grips. All these obstacles provide additional obstacle challenge to your ninja gym or backyard rig!
We have eyebolt versions of our popular hooked pull up grips, which we categorize as Ninja Obstacle Grips. These have the same structural integrity as the hooked grips in that the bolt extends through the hand grip. Products include the Ninja Tee Grips, Cannonball Grips, and Vertical Grips. The eyebolt has a large 1.25” inside diameter making it compatible with most ninja straps, or you can get all your straps here with our FitBar Straps. Hang these from monkey bars and create a cannonball-alley style obstacle as shown on American ninja warrior, or a hanging obstacle like those found on the Spartan Multi-Rig or at Savage Races. Products in this category are sold individually.
Rigs and Racks
The FitBar Free Standing Portable Monkey Bars are a portable monkey bar that can be set-up inside or outside to create a backyard ninja warrior course, OCR training course, or just for a killer backyard monkey bar set-up. These are patent-pending, Made-In-USA units which are stable WITHOUT the need for sinking the uprights into the ground, buying tons of wood, or bolting the uprights to the floor. They can be quickly set up indoors or outdoors, can be easily moved around your backyard, and can be easily transported to another location in a midsize SUV or pick-up truck. These units are plug and play, so you can configure the unit exactly as needed. We ship these anywhere in the continental US in boxes via standard UPS Ground at flat rate shipping, and they can be ordered directly on our website. Go to our Portable Monkey Bars page to learn more.
Pull Up Grips
We use high-quality zinc-plated hooks on all of our hooked pull up grips, which includes our Neutral Grips (Hooked Tee Grips), Ball Grips, and our Minicane Pinch Grips. The hooks extend through the hand grip for maximum strength and durability. The hook opening fits any 1.5 inch or smaller pull up bar, monkey bar, or gym rack bar. A fourth product in this category is our Pull Up Handles. These utilize an S hook for quick bar attachment, allowing you to execute a neutral grip pull ups on any 1.5” or smaller in diameter pull up bar. All the hand grips in this category is sold in pairs. These products are great for building upper body strength, building grip strength, training for obstacle course races, and ninja warrior training.
Obstacle Training Equipment
Two of our OCR training products that were inspired by Spartan Race obstacles are the Grip Wheel and the Beater Bar. The Grip Wheel is like a rotating pull up bar with two independently rotating grip elements. The hand grips are a high-performance foam over a steel tube that rotate on bushings, making usage easy on your hands. You can use pronated grip (overhand grip) or supinated grip (underhand grip) to rotate the hand grip elements. Either way, you get an intense upper body and core workout. You can also straddle the Grip Wheel to emulate the Spartan Twister obstacle for training for your next Spartan Race.
The Beater Bar can also be used for Spartan Beater obstacle training. The Spartan Beater obstacle is part of the multi-rig usually found at the Spartan Beasts. We designed the Beater Bar in response to a request from an Spartan SGX coach who wanted a Spartan Beater obstacle training tool. Our Beater Bar has a rotating element with three rigidly attached 1.5 inch diameter tubes. The grip surface is zinc-plated for corrosion resistance. Like the Grip Wheel, you can use pronated grip (overhand grip) or supinated grip (underhand grip) to rotate the tubes. The Beater Bar forces you to work one arm against over the other and is an intense upper body and forearm workout.
Both the Beater Bar and Grip Wheel can be attached to any 1.5” or smaller pull up bar, monkey bar, or pull up rack (i.e. squat rack) and include a safety bar to keep them in place. Both also spin freely with no resistance: resistance is from both holding and stabilizing your bodyweight.
Mounted Grips
FitBar offers Mounted Cannonballs and Obstacle Pegs for creating new ninja warrior obstacle elements. These can be installed on on wood or metal up to 3” thick - you can choose your fastener length on checkout. They can also be ordered with our Monkey Bar Truss and Free Standing Monkey Bars. We offer two versions. Mounted Cannonball Grips mount solid, and great for intermediate grip and obstacle training. Rotating Cannonball Grips can rotate about the mounting bolt, adding an additional element of challenge. We offer these individually and in a discounted 5 pack.
Ninja / Obstacle Course Race Training and Athletes
Our customers and their activities fall into three main categories: obstacle course racers, ninja warriors, and fitness enthusiasts. We have specific pages for training tips and athlete spotlights. The OCR training page highlights some of the training that is being performed by OCR athletes and customers, many of whom are Spartan SGX coaches or have their own obstacle course gym. In late 2019, we started a FitBar Race Team with members that run at select mud runs and OCR events. In 2021 we will continue event sponsorship at select obstacle course races, featuring our FitBar demo rig to demonstrate our products.
FitBar equipment started showing up at unexpected places, like in the hands of ninja warriors who wanted to add spice to their bar lache on a salmon ladder. For grip training, upper body strength training, and core strength, all of our obstacle training equipment can help budding American ninja warriors train for their next ninja warrior competition. Checkout our Ninja Warrior Training page for ideas and recommendations to help you improve your ninja skills. We also highlight some of the American Ninja Warriors we have worked with in the past at our Ninja warriors page.
