I need a pull up station, NOT a pull up bar, because I plan on doing bodyweight dead lifts in the middle of summer AND winter and jungle gyms just dont cut it in the fall and winter obviously. Im only 5’9 and Im in toronto if that helps.

Any ideas please? Could I just go to like a landfill and pick up some discarded metal bars and like get them welded together? Or do I just buy one of those big coat racks and remove the wheels on the legs and weld on a steel platform for each of the legs??

Thanks to anyone who answers.

    1 inch threaded black iron pipe. One long piece, two 90 degree elbows, two short pieces, two flanged ends to screw into the ceiling joists

    This was heavy enough for me to do pull-ups with weights attached to my belt 300lbs total
