Outdoor fitness equipment

Anyone have any outdoor fitness equipment? I don't have space inside my house so I'm thinking getting a tower for my backyard. Anyone recommend any brands that last longer than others considering it will be outside in the elements?

Salmon made a pull-up bar.
Gymnastics rings and parallel bars are great and portable
ETA: a sandbag would be fun af too
ETAA: I’m just not a big fan of power towers. I feel like they aren’t versatile enough.

Can do more than parallel bars?

Whaaaaaa? How so? Parallel bars are super versatile. Handstands, planche, rows, chest bar dips, tricep extensions, l-sit, pushups. I mean the list goes on and on.
What can you do with a power tower other than pull-ups/chin-ups and dips? Maybe they have changed over the years idk

If you want to spend the money, getrxd makes a galvanized rig. Get that and a stainless bar and rubber bumpers.
If not a couple 4x4s concreted in the ground for a pull-up bar, couple for set of parallel bars and a set of rings will at you up. Then get a weighted vest, couple heavy sandbags and you are set.

this is my plan
I haven't built it yet (because I've been lazy and had easy access to an awesome gym), but this might push me to finally break some ground this summer
I also planned to get a weather proof box and store a few KBs
