Building An Outdoor Pull-up Bar | DIY Pull-up Bar (Less Than 15 Minutes!) | Na’Jee Umbra

DIY / Build Your Own Pull-up Bar At Home! This one will last forever, unlike the traditional pull-up bars are made of steel. Which causes it to rust if got wet over time, weakening the steel making it easy to rust out and break. Mines is made out of galvanized steel, which means it will not rust because it is coated with a waterproof zinc layer. It cost a little but it'll last a lifetime. You get what you pay for!
Part List:
All Galvanized Pipe
1-1/4-in x 72-in [Side poles] x2
1-1/4-in x 48-in [Top bar]
1-1/4-in x 24-in [Feet] x4

Nice 👍🏽 Can you muscle up on it?

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

I would not recommend you do muscle ups on this. I snapped one side doing them 😅 its not stable enough. Im working on a better version due to so many people asking about muscle ups.

[@alekstinchfield3437]

@@umbravisionsnetwork Have you figured anything out yet? I was thinking I could just put a pipe strap on each corner by the caps

[@AriJordan]

a better method that would also be cheaper would have been to get one 6ft pipe and to use 4x4's cement it to the ground.@@umbravisionsnetwork

[@SuperColonel91]

Dude! Thank You So Much!!!

[@TheElevenBravo]

So glad I came across your video. -What a simple, effective, versatile , economical and effortless method of having pull-up bars! I was going to build mine with 4x4x10 pressure treated lumber and a 72" black pipe. After seeing your final product, I have changed my mind. Mostly because of its versatility, whereas mine, I was struggling of thinking of a place I could build it in. Thank you, sir! p.s. I love the fact that you honor your beautiful family! Much love and respect to that!

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

Wow thank you! Yeah I will be doing a setup like that once we move into our own home but this works out so much easier. Only thing is you’ll need sand bags if you want to hang a punching bag or do muscle ups. I’m glad this was able to help with your search. Thank you for your comment!

[@motleypixel]

7:34 $365. Price of schedule 40 steel as more than doubled since before COVID. It's all galvanized schedule 40 plumbing pipe with NPT threading, not cheap but like he said will last. No need to pain it either, just a waste of money, time and product. Only thing I would recommend is to put some anti-seize grease on the threads so it can be taken down later. Thanks for sharing.

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

Yeah that’s the only thing about inflation😅 been deciding on a color scheme now. Im going to have it powder coated in the winter before spring.

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

And thank for the tip about the anti-seize! That was a gem for sure🙏🏾

buying a pullupbar was the best thing i ever did for my life (technically its part of my power rack) but wow what a life changer. at first i would walk by it and squeeze out 2 pullups, thats alll i could do at the time. now im 32 pounds heavier and i walk by the bar and do 15 paused reps perfect form! they changed the way my body looks without going to a gym ever!!!!

[@rossstevens6165]

How tall are you? That bar looks very tall, considering the side lengths are 72 inches.

[@MrBilioner]

Outro song please

[@Myownraps]

Run 90s on each corner and run a bar to brace each side. Throw a sandbag on each corner and you should be able to do absolutely anything you want on it.

[@Funktastic_Ed]

You should add some foam to the feet, it might help making it more stable.

[@robertcarson3221]

One adjustment I would make is to use 2-3” pipes for the frame and they make reducer fittings that you can fit the 1-1/4” pipe into for the actual bar you pull on. Much stronger frame… for those of us that are heavier that is.

[@robertcarson3221]

3” x 1-1/4” galvanized bushing to be exact.

[@BarXaMFitness]

I believe I’ll use this instead of digging holes in my back yard. Great vid and I subbed!!! Have you tried muscle on this pull up station? Does it tilt when performing muscle ups?

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

Thank you for subbing God As far as muscle ups I wouldn’t recommend it with this particular setup. The muscle ups require a lot of force and it wears on the threads. Cause it to snap, it’s happened to me twice since making it.

[@BarXaMFitness]

@@umbravisionsnetwork thanks for the reply

[@mrlogick1098]

Imma try pvc

[@realityisntachoice1483]

Might jb weld the top so the bar connections won't loosen and spin while in use. That's the only addition I made.

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

Wish I could weld 😅 plan on use lock tight on the top. Once I have it powder coated.

[@official_mawdur]

Really cool video, but do you think there’s a way to build this cheaper? Does it have to be galvanized steel? Most of these that I’ve seen where they’re already built is between $80-$200. Baseblock has 1 that’s like $160-$170 with shipping? I love building my own stuff though so if you have any suggestions that’s a little more economical, I’d definitely be open to it

[@srinigypsy]

i just found two large straight cedar logs. very heavy and will need a deep hole and concrete but free. sourcing bar this week. considering drilling holes in the logs if i cant find some type of brackets.

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

Wow thank you, honestly because I’ve built this I was looking for a cheaper diy setup that was around $100! So I guess I have to do a new setup. Back in the lab I go👷🏾‍♂️

[@iamnikrust]

Plz tell me the name of the section lowe's plz bro

[@rubenchandrasekar]

Is it stable enough for muscle ups?

You will need sandbags to hold the bar down

[@Horus-Lupercal]

What kind of capacity do you reckon this has bro? I'm a 100 kilo (224 poud) powerlifter and want to start banging out weighted pullups. Much love from New Zealand. 💪

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

This pull up bar can hold about 182 kilo or 400lbs it’s sturdy but you’ll need to add sands to the feet. Shoutout to New Zealand! Definitely on my list of places to visit.

[@dcochrane4243]

Sup Nu ....question...how tall are you? I'm 6'5 260 and just wondering if i might have to spend a little more money for mine.. I want to build my own pull up and muscle up bar and I want to make sure I can keep my form perfect.. any advice with that? Nice i.g page by the way.... one love bro ✊🏿

[@umbravisionsnetwork]

I’m 5’11 and 155-165lbs it changes a lot lol. You’re a big guy, I would recommend you use 6x6 pressure treated wood fence for the sides and 4x4 pressure treated wood for the base. This setup is perfect for pull-ups but it’s too wobbly for the muscle up because of the force. I should know it broke on me when doing them 😅. I still would use the galvanized steel for your actual bar though just adding elbow joints and floor flanges to the tops of the 6x6. This setup will definitely be cheaper and save yourself from breaking the pull up bar and falling. Anymore questions please hit me on IG so I answer in more detail and give examples and links. Thank you @dcochrane4243 for the love. peace and blessings✌🏾hope this was helpful.

[@dfnuniverse2198]

EXCELLENT! THAT IS ALL I NEED OR WANT! BUT THE $25 MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION IS: WHAT DOES THAT STURDINESS LOOK LIKE IF YOU ATTEMPT TO SWING AND/OR DO MUSCLE-UPS ON THAT THING. STEEL IS THE WAY TO GO. THE ONLY THING I AM GOING TO DO DIFFERENTLY IS DOUBLE THE VERTICAL PIPES TO CONNECT A FREE-STANDING CAGE (RATHER THAN A SINGLE BAR, YOU WILL HAVE A DOUBLE PARALLEL BAR AT THE TOP AND EXTEND THE BOTTOM LEGS TO TO 48” RATHER THAN 24”s). FROM AN ENGINEERING STANDPOINT THE LONGER THE LEGS ARE, THE MORE STURDY THE STRUCTURE IF YOU ACTUALLY SWING FROM THE BARS. I WANT TO SWING TO BUILD STRENGTH AND STAMINA. CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BABY! BE BLESSED!

To answer that question you'll need some weights or sand on the legs because it does rock. Stay tuned for an update video!

Very cool. Don't think I can justify almost 400 dollars for a bar though. I built one out of two 4x4's in the past (moved houses). I was looking for an easier way this time but at this price, eh, idk man. Think I'll just make another 4x4 one for under 50. 4x4 8' are 10 bucks each, bury them about a foot and a half or so, bag of concrete is 5 bucks. It's a bit of a pain but the whole point is to work out right? 🤣I do like the pipe and I like how it's mobile, too. Nice work.

I bought this to replace a very similar item whose foam grips had worn after years of use. kzbin.infoUgkxwyoGHi-cCLV1AqJYj7QeIWKSpdRMYPF1 This one is is even slightly better than the old one I had! (Sorry I don't remember the brand or model.) This bar sits a bit higher in the doorway, giving me more ground clearance for movement, and the foam grips and foam pads that protect the doorway are thicker. It was also very quick and easy to assemble. The only minor gripe I have is that the hand grips in the middle are really tight on the bar, and therefore hard to slide along the bar if you want a wider or narrower grip. You have to be patient and gradually work them into the position you want.
