Our Home Gym Rack Collection
We have a wide range of power cages and squat racks that suit both commercial gyms and at-home fitness setups. Whether you're interested in strength training or functional fitness equipment, a rack from our range will meet your needs.
Many of our squat and power racks come equipped with rack attachments that enhance your training and ensure your safety. For instance, our spotter arms are used to catch your load in the case of a failed repetition. We also stock J-cups, or J-hooks, which are hooks designed to support your barbell between sets.
Our racks, especially when combined with compatible rack attachments, offer many benefits to strength trainers. Their solid structure and safety features allow you to lift heavier weights and push yourself harder. In this way, you can increase your strength more quickly than you would with free weight training. You can expect the following from our at-home rack collection:
Power racks
Power racks consist of four uprights that are horizontally connected to one another to form a cage-like structure. This is why they're also referred to as power cages.
Power cages often form the basis of a gym setup. Their multipurpose functionality makes them ideal for everything from basic fitness training to intense strength sessions. A power rack is a great addition to powerlifting equipment, CrossFit equipment and functional equipment. Invest in a power rack for your home gym to unlock many different exercises for your future workouts, including squats, pull-ups, bench presses and more.
Squat racks
A home squat rack is a key piece of weightlifting equipment that features two uprights rather than four. Similar to a power cage, these racks allow you to perform a wide variety of exercises. As the name suggests, you can intensely engage your leg muscles with squats and lunges, along with their many variations. Because these racks do not have overhead obstructions, they are also useful in targeting upper-body muscle groups through the shoulder and bench press.
Other benefits of squat racks include their compact size and portability. This is extremely helpful when used as at-home gym equipment. Investing in a squat rack for your home gym is a great way to save space. You'll also gain the flexibility to change around your setup as you expand on your strength training equipment.

What factors should I consider when choosing a home gym rack?
When deciding on a gym rack for your home, it's important to consider the following:
-
Space: If you have limited room in your workout zone, a more compact rack is the way to go.
-
Maximum weight capacity: If you're an experienced lifter, you'll need a sturdier rack that can support heavier weights.
-
Exercising goals: Want a rack that will add variation to your training style? A modular power rack can support many different rack attachments, including everything from landmines to dip bars and pull-up bars.
Squat racks vs power racks: Which do I need?
Both home squat racks and power racks are ideal for lifting weights and can increase your safety during training. Key differences between the two are their sizing, sturdiness, modularity, and affordability. Consider these factors when deciding between a home gym power rack or a home gym squat rack:
A power cage is typically larger and sturdier than your average squat rack for a home gym. Its stable structure allows you to safely push your limits when lifting heavier weights. Power racks are also more modular; they allow you to build onto your rack to explore a wide range of exercises.
While you can use a squat rack for many of the same load-bearing exercises as power racks, it's a far more compact home gym equipment piece. Having a lighter frame is one of the major draw features of a squat rack as it allows for easy moveability. These racks often come with a lower price tag than power racks.
