Benefits

  • Scales instantly — just step closer to or farther from the anchor.
  • Every move challenges your core and stability.
  • Weighs under 1 kg and sets up in seconds at home, in a park or when traveling.
Beginner advice

Look for sturdy straps with a door anchor and an extension strap for beams or trees; the original brand and well-reviewed alternatives both work for beginners. Start with rows, chest presses and assisted squats at a fairly upright body angle, then lean further as you get stronger.

Safety

Anchor to a door that opens away from you, so pulling keeps it shut, or to a solid beam, and test the straps with a firm pull before every session.
