    Low Bar height??

    I'm wondering how high you have the low bar. I'm 15, 5'2" and a level 8/9. I have issues with keeping my feet up on my counters. My low bar is so low right now that i can't even swing on it with my knees bent because they hit the ground. Is that bad? So, where do you have your low bar?

    Ceiling Height

    What is the average height that the ceilings in the gym should be? They are trying to move us into a new facility and I need to find out what the best height is.

    Coaches Bar height

    Just a quick question. My dd is the tallest on in her class, and I was wondering what you could tell me about the height of the low bar. The last gym we went to always set the low bar somewhere close to my dd's height. Is this correct? The new gym sets the low bar so if she is standing right...
