pull-up bar

Overhead exercise rail

A pull-up bar is a horizontal bar mounted at a height that allows someone to hang from it and perform pull-ups—exercises where you grip the bar and lift your body until your chin clears it.

Pull-up bars attach to door frames, walls, or ceilings, or stand as part of outdoor fitness equipment: I installed a pull-up bar in my garage.
