Dual Exercise Bars: 
This is a smaller and less expensive version of the 5-place Strength and Stretch bars which provides two adjustable bars for various pulling, pushing and stretching exercises.
The assisted push-up is an effective overall upper-body exercise which strengthens not only your chest, but your triceps, deltoids, biceps, back and abdominals as well. These are the same benefits achieved with regular push-up, the bars help lower the resistance and allow additional repetitions without excessive strain.
Assisted pull-ups exercises the same muscle groups required of chin-ups. Position yourself under the bar with the feet planted on the ground. Pull with the rowing action until the chin is above the bar. The resistance is controled by the position of the feet and the chosen height of the bar.
Additionally, all of the many exercises that can be done on a ballet bar can be practiced on the strength and stretch bars. These can include many leg strengthening exercises including alternating leg swings, lunges and deep knee bends.
