Chin up/dip station

Tinnuk Posts: 291 Joined: 2005/12/19	2007/04/02, 10:57 AM I'm in the process of making a gym sparing no expense, but I've hit a snag. The area that I'm making it has a ceiling of only 7 or so feet, so all ready made chin up/dip stations are too tall. Does anyone know where I could get or how I could make one that's shorter. I don't mind having to start on my knees to do chins. Keep in mind that I don't have the option of drilling holes in the ceiling or wall.

You prolly be better off getting another ab machine....or power rack. -------------- \\"The eight laws of learning are explanation, demonstration, imitation, repetition, repetition, repetition, repetition, and repetition\\" You have to learn to follow, before you can lead.
