Choosing the right gym rack for you

Whether you’re outfitting a home gym or a commercial gym, a rack setup is bound to be at the top of your priority list. It allows you to tap into the key compound movements: squat, bench and deadlift, and—with the smarter solutions—cable exercises and other movements.

But with a variety of price points, styles and features to choose from, it can be daunting to know where to start. That’s why we’ve put together some of our most popular products from across our range to help you navigate the world of gym racks.

The multi-tasker: our multi-functional trainer

View product

The one that does it all. The Multi-Functional Trainer is a standalone piece of equipment, meaning it’s not modular and can’t be combined with any of the other phases to make into a larger rig. It is, however, the king when it comes to versatility. It’s a compact machine for how much you can do with it and competitively priced considering you can access a pair of cable weight stacks, a smith machine and a barbell hook.
