I decided I wanted to get a dip bar to do dips, bodyweight rows, leg lifts and other types of abs/core exercises at home. I found 3 dip bars, but I don't know which one to get. I'm 5'5, 130lbs so I'm afraid some of the bars might be too big for me.

 

These are the dip bars I am thinking about buying:

Ultimate Body Press Dip Stand
Black Mountain Products Heavy Stand 3000 - Pound Rated Dip Station

Lebert Equlizer

 

The Ultimate Body Press and Black Mountain dip bars look almost the same. I read that the ultimate body press can be adjusted, and the bars are angled, but I can't tell from the pictures. Lebert Equlizer seems a little bit too small, and it doesn't look as stable as the other 2. I'm trying to keep the cost below 150, and I can't have anything TOO big or anything that needs to be mounted onto the wall.

 

Here are my measurements. Which dip bar would be best for me?

I would personally go for this one: http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Body-Press-Dip-Stand/dp/B000ICHPIK/ref=sr_1_2?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1394321096&sr=1-2&keywords=dip+station

 

Seems the most sturdy and being able to adjust it to be lower for bodyweight rows would be best.
