    Default A $500 or less

    Squat rack?

    Any suggestions? My wife wants to get something to have at home but I would like to use it some on days when the gym is closed or whatever. If it can safely hold 300 lbs it will be enough for us and I need a pullup bar.

    I actually went to dicks tonight to look at this one and liked it. I am just hoping there is a better deal out there.

    Do you want something that is free standing or attaches to the wall? If space is an issue, rogue and Lynx make some nice units that fold in to the wall or are tucked in close.

    Lynx is local to Atlanta and they make quality stuff:

    I like this for being able to do pull-ups as well.

    500 lbs and under $350 is gonna be hard to beat - especially when you factor in shipping.

    Under $500 to hold 300lbs. You had it reversed but from what I have seen that rack from Dicks is probably the best deal.

    Go to rogues website. They have squat racks and yoke racks in your price range. Quality gear.


    This the one I have.

    Or you can do something simple like this.

    I saw this one here on base at lunch. It gets decent reviews and is pretty darn versatile for $349.
