Anchor GymH1 Ceiling & Wall Mount Anchor for Resistance Bands, Exercise Bands Mount for Bodyweight Straps, Strength Training and Home Gym (Wood Screws Included)

The media could not be loaded. I have been a sports medicine physical therapist for over 19 years and needed to enhance my physical therapy practice. The Anchor Gym H2 was the perfect solution to the needs of my clinic. I needed a versatile anchor which was commercially strong enough for TRX equipment but would allow me to easily interchange it with resistive bands. This high quality anchor was easy to install. I love the fact that it has an open hook with a t-bar which allows me to quickly take a TRX Rip stick off to switch to suspension straps or tubing. The t-bar prevents whatever is hooked around it to not slip off. It would have been a pain if I installed an x-mount instead. We train our physical therapy patients on our "Anchor Gym wall" using 2 H1's, one at ankle height, one at 7 ft high, and one H2 at 4 ft. The mid position allows clients of different heights to do rotator cuff strengthening.We've trained clients including kids, 80 something year olds, obese clients and elite athletes such as gymnasts and baseball players. They all love the exercises that they can do with the simple anchor and bands. I would definitely recommend installing this in a home gym as well as in a commercial gym.

Like others have said, this is a very sturdy and well-made product. The thickness of the metal and overall solidness are impressive. I have only used it for a few days but it has not budged even slightly when I put almost my full weight (220 lbs) on it when using rings.Installation was a little trickier than expected. In order to attach it solidly you need to find a stud, and the heavy lag screws that are used to attach it have a hex head, so you'll need a socket wrench to drive them. This makes sense, the screw you need will be too heavy to drive with a screwdriver. You'll need to drill a pilot hole with 3/16" bit. The holes in the plate that receive the screws are not a lot bigger than the screw diameter, so you'll need to drill carefully. Your best bet is to drill top hole first and screw the top screw in almost all the way. Then you can level the mounting plate and drill the 2nd pilot hole through the opening in the plate. This reduces the chance of drilling the hole in the wrong place. There are no installation instructions shipped with the product, instead you get a url to a website with the instructions, but they are pretty simple. In summary, to install you need a drill with 3/16" bit, a socket wrench set, and a level if you care about having the plate perfectly level (probably unnecessary).

"I buy lots of stuff on Amazon but I have never been compelled to write a review until now....!! The H1 is simply and amazing piece of fitness equipment. I can work out in my home with any type/brand of resistance band, suspension trainer (including TRX) or stretch strap. I don't have much space so it fit nicely on my wall in my bed room. I might get another one to mount outside as a well since they are weather proof. I had a few questions about the use and installation and reached out to the company and the owner, Shawn Finnegan responded back right away with tips on fitness and nutrition. He has posted some great information on the site about how to eat and exercise to reach my goals. He also offered free coaching if I needed more help down the road....I love his "Above and Beyond" attitude for his customers. That is so rare these days! I'm so happy I found Core Energy Fitness and the Anchor Gym."

These are worth the money. A quick background. I had ordered other wall mounts. They got lost in the mail. So, I put in an order for Anchor Gym mounts. The other mounts were a lot less expensive. I decided to go with these Anchor Gym, the more expensive option after reading reviews. Lo and behold BOTH sets of mounts showed up on the same day. WHAT a difference. On the cheap option, the box was busted open, the screws were all loose, and the paint was already peeling off. I opened the Anchor Gym order. Each mount was boxed up separately (see pictures). I could feel a difference. The Anchor Gym mounts are super heavy duty. They are not painted. They feel like solid steel. The difference is insane. These are high quality mounts. If you are debating between getting a cheaper version or these, learn from my mistake and buy the Anchor Gym mounts. They are worth the money.

These definitely get the job done for me. I was able to anchor them in the studs adjacent to a door frame. I installed 3 - one near the ground, another and chest height and the third at about 7 feet. These work perfectly for a wide range of exercises. They hook design is genius - it is easy to attach and detach bands, and I never worry about them accidentally slipping off. These are excellent.

I bought this to use with my fitness ropes. It is sturdy and with the size and weight of the hardware screws that were included, I doubt it will ever be anything but 100% securely fixed. Just remember and make sure where you install it is where you want it because it is not going anywhere else so thanks.

Worked really well and mounted easily. A little pricey for what it is, but it solves the problem quickly and easily, so I guess that’s worth something :)

Very strong. Provides two levels for your exercise bands, straps, etc.
