    CZ 455 receiver

    Does anyone know anywhere that sells the receiver only and/or other individual parts such as the bolt? I'm planning to assemble my own trainer and since I'll be purchasing nearly every other part separately, I'd rather not just sit on a pile of parts I don't need.

    Cheater rubber bands for pullups?

    Re: Cheater rubber bands for pullups? I use a counterweight, climbing harness, and a short section of static line for reduced weight pullups. I mounted a 2nd bar behind my pull-up rig to act as the pulley and keep the weight from hitting my knees - works great.
