Getting one of these.

Already have 7ft Olympic bar and bench with plenty of dumbbells. Only problem is the equipment if kept at my workplace in a spare office, drilling into the walls for a pull up bar is not an option, neither is using a bar that fits into a door frame.

Has anyone has attempted pull ups this way? By putting the squat rack on the highest setting with a couple of weights to keep it balanced.

Have considered a power cage, but again equipment must be easily moveable then I've got the hassle of selling my current bench and missing out on leg curls/extensions.

Yes i have tried in the presence of my personal trainer it is bit difficult but dont do it without your trainer can be dangerous but it is quite helpful......
