Squat Rack Or Power Rack Reddit

I have a half rack with weight storage and the only downside for me is that i can t use the pull up bar if i m doing anything else in the rack.

Squat rack or power rack reddit.

I used valor fitnessbd 9 power squat stands up until my squat started breaking 300 lbs for reps. A former reddit user wrote for the price you get a great rack stable and well built and mentions this budget power rack also fits attachments from most major brands like titan. Haven t had to move anything else since i put it up. Hi i have a ceiling just under 7 feet in my basement.

Squat stands half racks are perfectly capable of handling any compound movement you re looking to do. Squat stands generally don t offer up that much savings in terms of space since the uprights are mounted in the center of the braces on the bottom. The extra safety of a power cage isn t necessary it s just nice to have. Again the 810xlt is touted as mostly a beginner to intermediate rack with this user adding i don t lift heavy so for me it s perfect.

After that point not having full safety bars was getting dicey. Are there any rogue racks that would fit. As for bench i went with rogue flat utility 2 0. Most have the option of buying safety spotter arms so you can bench or squat safely and also use for rack pulls.

The hole spacing is awesome i set my j hooks for squat and bench spotter arms are the same for both. If you re willing to go up to 250 i ve been using the fitness reality 810xlt for well over a year and it s held up beautifully. I m aware of the titan t 2 short rack but if i could find a better one.
