Being a gym rat normally, the pandemic has hindered my ability to work out in a bootcamp class setting for some time. To stay safe, I’ve been building a home gym over the last year so I can continue my workouts in the comfort of my home. I’ve been putting off getting a squat rack because I needed to clear a little more space in the gym. However, after clearing out some things and seeing I have more space, I set out my search for a squat rack to complete my gym. I’ve been searching over several weeks for a sale on a sturdy durable squat rack. I purchased this one due to the value, the multipurpose use and the weight limit.When the squat rack arrived, it actually came in two separate packages. That made it easier to move into our garage. All the parts were packaged neatly and with adequate padding so that nothing was damaged.My husband and I built the squat rack together. It took us a little less than an hour. The instructions were simple to follow and we didn’t have any issues fitting all the parts together. We’ve had problems in the past putting workout equipment together and the holes didn’t match up, but it wasn’t a problem here.After testing out the squat racks, there are some things that we liked and didn’t like.Pros:- Base is heavy duty and feels sturdy- High weight limit of 660 lbs- There is a safety latch for the barbell when not in use (this is something I didn’t see in other squat racks)- Multipurpose use including pull-ups, dips, weighted squats, and trx workouts- Different posts for trx ropes- Anti slip grips- Adjustable height so both myself (5’ tall) and husband (5’ 10” tall) can use comfortablyCons:- When doing trx ropes, you need to add weights to the bottom to stabilize since it’s not a full cage squat rack- Height is adjustable but if your gym has a lot ceiling, that might prevent you from adjusting height to tallest settingOverall, I am happy with this purchase. I no longer have to hang the trx ropes to our doorway and worry about the bar falling down since I can use it on this squat rack. It fits in our gym perfectly and allows us to engage in multiple workouts. I’m happy with the purchase and glad that I purchased while it was on sale.
