A fantastic piece that has a more natural feel than blocks, and doesn’t require someone holding a board. Also will fit a bunch of bar thicknesses without feeling like it’s ready to give up the ghost

When your wife is a fitness instructor, things sometimes just show up that support her classes. I wouldn’t trust my life to this thing, but for cardio or plyo applications that aren’t a heavy landing, I haven’t seen anything to run away from. I wouldn’t trust NOT trust with dynamic exercises or much of anything “weighted”.

Got and put into a gym on a loaner to help a buddy. It’s a pretty damn solid rack all things considered. Would I run 1000 lb attempts out of it? Probably not. But I didn’t see anything that made me think “I wouldn’t use this in a home gym”

We tested at Rogue as we recently pulled our belt squat/hip thrust combo out of our space to upgrade to a Rhino. This was nice, but just seemed like something else to trip over and have to find a way to store as a high price point. It made a hell of a stool for me to sit on while we talked though.

No major issues, but I have the lowest frills, no plastic, take a beating and give a beating back to the bar, version. We use our equipment, it’s not a showroom, so doesn’t bother me. But if you want pristine, the all metal will obviously tear your equipment up!

Solid hooks, especially where you can’t or don’t have a stand alone mono. Not my favorite to use if in a full kit (briefs and suit) as the rerack sucks if equipped. They are functional and have a solid purpose. Cons: I have smoked my head on these stepping through my rack more than I care to admit. It pretty much skins you when you do that. I want them beefy, but manipulating into place is a pain for some folks.

Local commercial space has mounted on their rack. If you need a rack mounted chalk bowl with an arm that you could park your truck on - this is the option you need.

I played with this as Rogue Retail store and I could see some real application into my training space. It’s overbuilt and moves smooth, but at price point new it’ll be a “wait” game for now as I can accomplish a similar burnout in dual and iso extensions with a band folded up.
