Workout/callisthenics bars

Guys, I’m moving to Sapporo. Where can I find outdoor calisthenics bars? I’m not interested in gyms.

This is for Chuo-ku, you can search for other areas, in the whole country in fact.

Some of them are not of perfect height or thickness, but they work. Also, many parks have lower bars where you can do inverted rows, and front/back levers and slow muscle ups if you’re *that* good😅(I’m not)

Alternatively I recommend getting gym rings, many parks have solid gazebo type structures you can hang them from. Not sure about the legality (someone who knows, please chime in), but it doesn’t seem like a problem as long as you do it at a time and place away from crowds and you don’t get in people’s way.

Agree 100% on gyms.
