Great design. Definitely gonna consider that for my backyard gym. Just a tip, mixing the concrete and water in the fence post hole with a pencil bar works much better. I say this after doing about 200 fence posts in my yard.
One question, where would you find the post and brackets? Also would tree roots ( we’re talking about a 3/4meter tall tree ) be an issue? As in will they ruin all the balancing of the posts over the years?
@@frh1263 I got (2) 4"x6"x16' and the brackets from home depot. You'll want to dig about 3-feet down (almost a meter), so I suggest a posthole digger. So, it really depends on if you can get through those roots easily. If not, it may just take a little longer to dig. Also, I used quite a few bags of cement per hole for stability..
Another tip. If you use a metall shoe in which the post can be bolted down and the wood is liftet of the ground a couple of inches . This way it wont rott away in 2 years
Hey, I love this design. I know you have some of the stuff listed in your description. What type of wood did you use? Also, do you have a downloadable list anywhere that I could snag from you?
Why do you recommend doing 10” wide holes for the posts? I was recommended to dig as narrow as possible from someone who has previously installed. Appreciate the help
This is so awesome. I was looking for something just like this. But I have a doubt in my mind. Wouldn't rain and extreme weather conditions make the wooden poles weak with time? Or is there any special kind of wood or a way to make them everlasting?
It is a good and considerable suggestion; foray, it really boils down to personal preference; but not a must. It very well may be preferable for some; however there are opposing consideration(s); for example: damp & extremely hot environments; it rains a lot where I live and it is an additional layer of protection for the base of the wood; even for treated wood and coated with a sealer like Klitz; eventually soaking in the wet mud and heat; it will eventually breakdown the wood at the point where the tensile strength is most important; this it is why above ground, concrete "Deck Blocks" exist , ( aka: Also called pre-formed deck foundation blocks ), I have an 8' privacy, ( zombie ), fence; and have had to replace several 4x4's over time, and also a couple on my back deck as well. Also, for the rest of us; as we age, the goal becomes to improve our property to become more maintenance manageable; and it would be just another thing to beat the weed whacker line against. Alternatively, when I can just do a quick & easy fly by on the Hustler raptor and make quick work of it. Peace
I agree , concrete all the way up is better for draining water away from posts. Soil around bottoms would encourage rot but if the wood is treated it would still last a long time.
Amazing setup! Only one question: do you need any permission or anything to be able to dig in your yard? I know it may sound silly but I just want to make sure :)
Where is it possible get sketchup for this project? As a construction demonstrator, you are quite "tizls" (google translate refuses to translate it correctly). It is not clear how you treated the leaves so that they do not rot next year. There is no sector for training the diaphragm area. I don't understand what you used the useless tire for. In general, your variant can be used as a base and modified to become really useful.
@@zackpero4768 I think that the abdominal press muscle training with the "Sit-Up Bench" is missing. It does not take up much space and can easily be made in your construction.
I want to construct a pull up bar station in my backyard, but I live in the desert. It gets up to 120f during the Summer and touching anything metal feels like the devil spitting acid on your hand. I dont want to wear gloves or put shade up over the bar, so is there a material I can use instead of metal that would help? Or even painting the bar white? Anyone with experience with this?
Simple and to the point. Nice spot too, with the farmers field.

I'd just use post create, you dump the bag in and top it off with water and it mixes it self....
Should have fitted a slippery dip. Girls love slippery dips. Careful not to mess up that hair.
Beautiful view at the backyard
nice that you used so many posts and linked them together that would keep it nice and steady.
Nice job! It's perfect. I like the little kid at 2:55. Haha.
watching this video already sweating thinking about the holes i got to dig up lol! and i know my area is full of rocks! O'boy cant wait!
Good luck !

Thumps up for a man who builds and trains
Headed to Hardware store.
Great, now if I only had a backyard.
Just build it inside your bedroom, instant workout
Creative, thanks for detailed video
Nice views during workout....nice
Wow! That’s a great outdoor gym. Thank you for the detailed video
great video
the algorithm got me here, the content will make me stay....:)
I need this for my Calisthenics journey.
This is awesome!
great setup for lots of different workout options in a compacted area, thanks
Dang, I have rock everywhere. Great build. Always wanted one.
This is cool.
Heaven
Nice! really envious of your location too, how great is that space you have!! All the best with your training
Nice!
You did great. Looks nice, and sturdy.
You are the best bro
Thank you my friend
Awesome job.
Great results. Appreciate the step by step tutorial 👍
Wow🔥🔥🔥
Thanks man, good info
Hey love from India ♥️🚩🇮🇳
Hey, I love this design. I know you have some of the stuff listed in your description. What type of wood did you use? Also, do you have a downloadable list anywhere that I could snag from you?
easy to follow. how long did it take to build?
Use post hole digger guys, will be much faster but awesome video man I’m adding this to my ranch today
Looks good, but pipe-through-post is a far better than relying on the flanges
good to know, what pipes do you recommend? I guess something stainless?
Nice set up. I gotta do this
Great built n info..👍
I’m sure you’re kids would appreciate it as well. Great job
That's something for generations. Well done.🙏🙏💝💝
wood in cement at ground level will last a few years .
Good job. I also want to do something similar in my house.
I live in a remote part of Canada. I can easily get the lumber and cement, but I need a link to where I can purchase the bar and anchors.
Bet that bar gets hot!!
Possibly, haven’t noticed that during the summer, but haven’t also used it during super hot days.
nice 🎉
I really like your design just wondering what’s the purpose of ladder?
Climb to the dip bar
Nice idea. Now I have to search for video using metric system.
Just make a screenshot and convert the measure/scale unit/gauge to a metric one later on on the internet
Or just learn it. The whole world uses it.
Very useful video.
After 3 months' use, are there any regrets about this setup?
Would you like to change anything?
The only change I plan is to add sand around the area for a more soft landing and for kids to enjoy it more.
How would this work in Washington state? Might have a chance building it in the summer
Should be fine
Hi, good video. I have a question: have you had any issues with the wood posts splitting or cracking from use on the bar over time?
Still fine to this day.
Where are you located? Is 2 feet down below the frost line?
Why do you recommend doing 10” wide holes for the posts? I was recommended to dig as narrow as possible from someone who has previously installed. Appreciate the help
I believe 10’ hole would give you more concrete around the post to hold it in place, i would also change 4x4 posts with 6x6 if I would redo it now.
mashallah i need this
Get it !
Awesome, took a lot of this to build one for me and my kids. Did you put a clear coat on after painting pipes? Someone mentioned maybe I should.
No, but looking bad I should have
Would this be ok in snow?
Survived 2 winters already.
Looks great, thank you for walking through this step by step! Question: what are the metal pieces around the bottoms of the posts called? 🙏
Post Anchors or Post Base Skirt
@@NYDStories much appreciated!
Motivational,coming from a 70 year old former Ranger. Where did you pick up the rings? Mark
I'm doing this this summer !!! I'm curious why didn't you use a hole digger tool?
What about postcrete instead of concrete? Also good to see the technique. Really awesome.
I like to torture myself :) time and $$ to go rent the hole digger was less interesting, instead I got a good workout digging holes :)
did the wood got stale and did the steel get rusted?
Not yet
Would this be effective to hold more than 200+ lbs I’m 160 lbs and I do weighted calisthenics
I am 198 lbs, holds me well. But if you want more, I suggest to go with 6x6 posts instead of 4c4
you appear to have some caps on the top and different ones around the base that aren't in the install, where did you get them from
Homedepot, one type comes with lights and the others are simple
Question, how much weight can the floor flanges hold?
Hard to say, i have around 200 lbs and it was all-right.
@@NYDStories perfect, thank you so much. Great vid, will be making my own hopefully soon
How wide is the dip bar setup?
What are the top cover and bottom covers called? Thank you
Post cap
Good morning sir, what size is the longest pipe?
Hi. Did you find 1" pipe outside diameter is good enough? Do not need bigger? And is it strong enough for length of 180cm?
Good enough for my hands, i guess it depends on your hands size, try the feel before getting the pipes in your local hardware store.
You can always add tape too make the bar grippier and thicker in sections… we use to do it at our estate’s monkey bars
my dream
just finished this today, how long would you say the concrete takes to dry??
I used a fast setting concrete, 30min and it was ok, take a look at the bag you got they tell you exact time it needs to cure.
@@NYDStoriesthe concrete dry it’s been 24hrs, i’d send u a pic of the build but i cant in the comments 🥲
What screws did you use ?
Deck screws.
Where can I buy a bar like the one you have?
I got it at Lowes/Rona
I would love exercising with those views.
This is so awesome. I was looking for something just like this. But I have a doubt in my mind. Wouldn't rain and extreme weather conditions make the wooden poles weak with time? Or is there any special kind of wood or a way to make them everlasting?
Its not everlasting, but wood is treated, so it will last for a good amount of years, you can also stain it every year if you dont want it turn grey.
What is the total price for this construction?
About 250 CAD
Good job but you shouldn’t fill the concrete to the top of the hole, stop 4 inches off the top and back fill with soil and seed it
Can you explain why, please?
Bruh @@ImzyImz it should be common sense.. it looks neater and better when no concrete is visible and is instead covered with grass

You don't want any organic material resting against the wood, your advice is the opposite of what you should do
I agree , concrete all the way up is better for draining water away from posts. Soil around bottoms would encourage rot but if the wood is treated it would still last a long time.
does it hold up with the rain?
1 year now, all good.
Amazing setup! Only one question: do you need any permission or anything to be able to dig in your yard? I know it may sound silly but I just want to make sure :)
You can do it if you own the house and the property, I would ask for permission if you’re renting a property
Not where I live as I am out of the city, but check with your city bylaws
Are you from finland bro?
Canada !
Are those treated posts? They don’t look like it.
How tall are you brody?
How much does it cost ?
Was that charcoal you added on top of the concrete?
No, some regular stones from local HomeDepot
would it be easy to add a dip station?
There is a dip station already
@@NYDStories you mean the parallel bars? Are they close enough to do dips?
Nevermind friend, I saw you doing them.
How much did it cost you in total ?
About 200$ if I recall right
@@NYDStories ty, I'm thinking of doing the same in my backyard your video is really helpful 👍
How much did it cost
I built a similar one but with little more to it and it cost around $400
Roughly 250$, need to check the receipts.
Are 4x4 posts OK, finding anything thicker isn't so easy
They are alright, but I would go with 6x6
could you provide Centimeter measurements, so that non american viewers can follow through, thanks

A tree planted on the side would nicely complement this gym. I think an oak would really fit in there.

you could cover up the bar with a tarp when you’re not using it
