    Best power rack? OPINIONS PLEASE

    I don't know why you think the powertec rack can't handle 200kg squats... Its rated for 1000lbs. My 150kg squats cause it no problems. I weigh 106kg and the rack is very stable when doing pullups. Here is a guy doing 135kg squats in the older model rack: rory cubitt form check full...

    Best power rack? OPINIONS PLEASE

    I vote powertec because that was the path I chose after seeing/testing both racks. However, the MMPR is decent. Both the powertec and the MMPR have similar footprints, similar gauges of steel, Powertec's bolts have backing plates MMPRs dont, MMPR has better chin up bar, powertec has better...

    Ironmaster super bench vs gymdirect bench

    Oh, fair enough. I just assumed from the signs when I walked past going to the RTA today that it was Paul Graham's old equipment.

    Second session into this program after an 18 month period of inactivity. Geez it kicks your ass! I previously did stronglifts 5x5 and got my 3RMs to 80 BP 150 SQ 150 DL from quiet low numbers but developed tendonitis in my elbow in the process... It'll be interesting to see how this...

    Equipment - Help me decide

    I saw that rack in the flesh and it looks awesome! Really solid & indestructible. Have you contacted the seller to let them know about the rust? That way there is a record if anything breaks & hey you might get a discount on your next purchase! Nothing ventured nothing gained. How was your...

    muscle motion vs powertec power rack

    Hey Marko et al, Sorry for the very delayed response. The 200kg commercial rack does look the goods but it wasn't a consideration due to space and height restrictions, however I have to admit that I was very impressed when I saw it at gymdirect (also the open top heavy duty one appeared to...

    muscle motion vs powertec power rack

    Just a quick update: I went to check out Sam's Fitness and decided I liked the powertec gear much better than the Muscle Motion stuff so I ended up buying the Powertec Rack. The rack is awesome and I've got a crew of mates coming over atleast 3 times a week to lift. The quality is really...

    muscle motion vs powertec power rack

    Hi all, Anyone have any personal experience with the Force USA rack? I went to gymdirect today and checked out the MMPR which I was impressed by, however if the Force USA one is of a better quality then I might get it instead. I'm going to get rack, lat pull down (I want one for triceps...
