I’ve been searching for weeks and can’t find a pull up bar! All the ceilings in my house are standard height (which is pretty low… I’m 5’ 10" and can easily touch them standing on tippy toes) and I can’t find a pullup tower that will fit.
I don’t want one of the ones you have to screw into the door frame, because then I can’t close whatever door I put it on.
Does anyone know of any towers that are relatively short compared to the rest, or have any ideas to help me??
Any other options, such as a low hanging tree outside, stairs leading to the basement, etc?
nope, no trees, no basment. The only stairs we have are very open with really no way to improvise a pull up bar.
I’m guessing you don’t have access to a gym then, right? Aside from those options, is there a school playground in your area? I did a pull-up workout from the monkey bars when my gym was closed awhile ago.
i have one of the ones that go in your door frame and it doesnt interfere at all with it closing
Most chin/dip stations are under seven feet. Mine is only 6’10".
Sub and Testy - Do you have any links or anything to what you have? Or atleast a name and where you got it? I can’t find any good ones for the door frame, and the towers I find are all about 7’ 1". A 6’ 10" tower just might fit…
Mine is a golds gym power tower. I tried goggling it but all I could find were assisted power towers by golds.
This one is 86". Do you have 8’ cielings?
Here is one that is 81"

What do you have, no gym right? Do you have a power rack, if so put the bar at the top and do pullups from that. What equipment do you have?
that 81" one might work… my ceilings are all about 91"-92"
I’ve got a set of dumbbells, but I really wanna start doing some pullups in my workouts.
