These outdoor parallel bars are 96 in. long, 34 in. wide and 42 in. high, with bars 2.00 in. in outside diameter, a common grip size in the fitness industry. Users can do dips, L-sits and other bodyweight moves, from basic calisthenics to advanced gymnastic movements. Although simple in design, the bars support an array of strength and coordination exercises and give users stability and freedom of movement. The unit weighs 150 lb and is built for users up to 330 lb.
The bars are made of 2 in. round tube in 11-gauge steel, and a 10-year limited warranty covers the non-moving parts. They come in green or blue. Parks, school campuses and correctional yards typically install parallel bars as a staple of the fitness area. A parks department building a calisthenics zone can add them to its park gym equipment for users who want more than pull-up bars.
