DesireeGattis-Stall bars are awesome! I grew up doing gymnastics and wish I had one in my house. They can be used for many different strength and flexibility exercises. Here is a youtube video that shows some examples of what you can use it for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=au0ykvSiEi8

DONE! I’m sold. I’m building these or having some installed. End of story.

Dang.. my reply didn’t go through earlier.. stupid wifi on my phone.
Anyway… I will ask hubby for the specifics on why concrete is the preferred as its all engineering language outside of my realm. lol
I only partially listen when he goes off on tangents as he has taken my idea and popped my bubble.. lol. I am grateful he is soooo king of overkill for safety.. but it is still a buzz killer.I know that every single gymnastics club I have trained in or taught in- they are always mounted directly into concrete.
I wanted to mount a set at my previous location(before we moved) and it couldn’t be done as the unit was a concrete unit… but it had steel stud/drywall construction and the hubby put a flat out nix on any idea I had..
That problem has been solved since we moved as I have a big beautiful concrete wall to utilize. -
Hi,
I recently had a friend build a stall bar for me. They are very sturdy made out of maple wood. I am hoping they will help me with certain moves like the handspring. All I need now is for Veena to post a how to best use a stall bar tutorial. I have watched several videos on you tube.The stall bars are a challenge in themselves. They are also awesome for stretching and flexibility training -
This is the crazy shit that made me want stall bars.

Grayeyes!!! sorry it has taken so long to get pics of my pole room but here it is!! Still a ways to go but it’s getting there. I need to figure out my floor situation, my husband made sure I have the whole square for extension purposes, so I’d like to put maybe floating floor there. Also where the door is in the right, will be where I want the stall bars.

That looks great! I love the giant mirror. Keep us posted as it progresses.

Thx Grayeyes, I will. I love the big mirror too!! I think I got a great price…it was $275 delivered and installed through gigantic mirrors. I would definitely recommend them if anyone is looking for a mirror to purchase.
