DIY PVC Parallel Bars 

Your a hero

Thanks g

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah filling is a good idea!

thanks :)

RU-vid is truly a remarkable blessing. LordPadron I have been watching your video's which have led me to the video lesson from Kaity & Adrian which ultimately proves that "each one teaches one" this is awesome. I am intrigued by the concept of PVC as a viable option for home gym equipment. I am in a unique circumstance where in home gym equipment is my best option. I am 6'0 350lbs, I do a lot of body weight workouts routinely, and I am rather limber for a larger frame. Do you have any suggestions as far as the PVC gym being a possible option for a frame like mine? (I would value input from both sources "Kaity & Adrian" and "LordPadron")

@@heavycmc not to butt in here but i work with all kinds of pipe at my job regularly..pvc is not that strong..i see a lot of ppl on here using these diy pvc rigs but i don't recommend it for someone that weighs over a buck 50...i really don't recommend it for anyone honestly,even lighter folks....gotta use that steel man...good luck!

Thankyou so much! We will definitely be making more DIY equipment videos in the future too! :)

@@VigilanteFitnessCouple I anticipate that. My family and I are grateful.

Whats the weight capacity??? Lol im 270

1' 1/4 pipe

thanks for concern, PVC is actually strong AF. We also make sure to check on the bars before everyset and spot each other!

yeetus doritos you could reinforce it by inserting a smaller pipe inside i think it will be much stronger

Did my research and as it turns out, Schedule 40 PVC pipes can withstand a textile strength of 954 pounds. Schedule 80 can take 1,225 pounds.

Thats great man! yours look great, and made out of metal! You should make a training vid on them!

@@VigilanteFitnessCouple sure I will! Thanx man

Wow such an easy build

@@VigilanteFitnessCouple i making this bars bro Can u tell me what is tha height of your bars in cm

hmmmm good idea, we might look into that!

@@VigilanteFitnessCouple Cement will crack. Best thing to do is add a horizontal support bar near the top.

cool suggestion man.

Probably go solid core 40 to be safe. Can’t hurt. Little heavier and expensive but worth it.

yeah definitely !

or cement works too

Thank you guys so much I will try it👍👍

Really happy to hear thanks for support 😊

good video btw :)

thanks part of it is glued together but we do take it apart

They fare really great as parallettes/push up bars, but with dip bar dimensions I am not so sure ^^

Oh we never replied!! but yeah we still used them :P just making sure to check on them before every set. The wobbliness actually adds extra core work!

Fill with cement maybe? Will take away the portability though.

If you glued it (and used 1-2 cross beams at the base) the wobble would largely go away.

More coming in the next few days!!

Se llama PVC, solo compralo grueso para que soporte

Cuanto peso soporta

glad you are entertained :P

For you, you would probably want to glue and fill with cement !

Kaity & Adrian awesome definitely will, thank you ! :-)

very fun!

We are heavier than that now, but it becomes alot more stable after gluing properly and we had a friend who filled his. Also it is even more stable if you switch to the shorter posts

@@VigilanteFitnessCouple It is a nice job. But, in our case, the person who would use it weighs 95 kg (normal weight for someone with developed muscles), so it must be reinforced. Regards.

Thanks :)

not true

yups
