This one might be good for the intended purpose, but there are many other pull up bar stands or multi-use exercise stands that could be be portable assuming you have at least a hatchback vehicle. Obviously use your best judgment here, and it may be an unnecessary expenditure for your implemented routines, but it also might be worthwhile so I figured I'd add it in. https://www.amazon.com/Barbell-Power-Rack-Exercise-Stand/dp/B00HYQP72O?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_2

CAP Barbell rack back in stock this morning. Recent reviews state missing parts and lack of customer service response, so proceed at your own risk:

Any ideas on storage accessories for a CAP Fitness squat rack? Picked up one on Amazon and want some pegs to hold weight plates but can't find any.

Is the Cap Power Rack fine for a starter set? I have it on standby for when it comes back in stock, and have an extremely small space for basically just something of that size.

Its a cheap squat rack I bought with some other cheap standard equipment. Not a bad starter gym but you'll probably want to upgrade to olympic gear eventually.

It's the CAP power rack, I bought it on Amazon. It pops in stock every now and then, I think I paid like $140 for it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HYQP72O/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_GSALFb5RA65M0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

is it normal that I am able to pull the sides of my rack and it will come down? I have the screws on the bottom pretty tight, i can't tighten them anymore. I have the CAP barbell rack that gets posted here from time to time ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HYQP72O/ref=twister_B07GZF5JWW?_encoding=UTF8&th=1 )

If you have some space, you could get a free-standing rack with a bar on the top: https://www.amazon.com/Barbell-Power-Rack-Exercise-Stand/dp/B00HYQP72O?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_2

I don’t recommend power tower. Limited space for rings and potential of tipping over. Much better to use a power rack. This is what I use:

Prices fluctuated a lot, and delivery times. I eventually got it for $141 and it took about 5 days to get to me. Not bad.

Does anyone have experience with this CAP barbell/squat rack? I have one coming in the mail this week but I'm having some concerns about how stable it is, and if the catch arms are stable enough to hold 225lbs on when I'm doing bench. There are also some add-on catches for $30 but I'm wondering if I should cancel this and just spend more money on a rack

Fellow tall guy here. Honestly, if you're going to spend $200, I'd recommend getting a squat stand/cage. You can find a cheap squat stand for $130-250 (for example), or a cage for about $300. They're generally going to be more stable that the power tower you're looking at, and you can also use them for other things, like squats, if you have a barbell or think you might want to get one in the future, or for hanging your rings, etc.

I went with the CAP squat stand. It fits in my guest room and I'm not lifting big enough weights to worry. I think it's rated up to 500 lbs

I bought this one from Amazon right before the virus for $89

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HYQP72O/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_uNdMEbA9ZNC1P

Looks like it's out of stock/crazy expensive right now but if you can wait it's a steal for the price. I was skeptical due to the price but it's awesome.

I have rings on it, bands, climbing holds.

Hey guys, what would you say is the most budget rack or squat stand I can get? I'm planning on spending most of my money on weight and just need anything that won't get me killed at this point lol.

I was thinking about this titan stand but its on backorder, any thoughts? https://www.titan.fitness/racks/squat-stands/t-3-series/t-3-series-short-squat-stand-with-j-hooks/400925.2.html

Or this one when it gets back in stock? https://www.amazon.com/Barbell-Power-Rack-Exercise-Stand/dp/B00HYQP72O?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_4

Two uprights, not the full cage. Essentially yeah, I'm looking for a squat stand with spotter arms, but not the ones that are free legs you move in and out.

This is the cheap CAP one I'm referencing. It's okay, but it is 1.) Tall and 2.) Not as stable as I'd like. The height isn't a deal breaker, but something shorter with adjustable height would be better. (As long as it's not super unstable when I lift it to squat or press) https://www.amazon.com/Barbell-Power-Rack-Exercise-Stand/dp/B00HYQP72O/ref=mp_s_a_1_24?dchild=1&keywords=half+rack&qid=1603675095&sr=8-24

Edit: Looks like for stability, the height is gonna have to come with it. Think I'm gonna go with this one; the landmine attachment has me sold. https://www.amazon.com/Fitness-Reality-Multi-Function-Adjustable-J-Hooks/dp/B084P72GYX/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=squat+rack&qid=1603676754&refinements=p_72%3A1248957011&rnid=1248955011&s=sporting-goods&sprefix=squ&sr=1-4

I bought a CAP Barbell Power Rack Exercise Stand from Amazon.

Amazon's page said I was getting model FM-905Q, but I instead got model FM-CS7000F. It is the exact color I ordered though.

CAP's Website and manual PDF for FM-CS7000F says this model only has a 300 lb weight capacity with 12 and 14 gauge steel thickness. However, the manual I received says it has a 500 lb capacity. I tried contacting CAP, but they're not picking up the phone.

I already bitched to Amazon and got a refund, but if this rack does actually hold 500 lbs, then I'll keep it.

I heard in the Amazon comments that an older model sold with only 300 lb weight capacity. Did they change it, but not update their model number or website? Just want to make sure this thing is actually safe to use.

My best suggestion is get a couple of plates. Because, you can do tons of stuff landmine style. You can do squats, deadlifts, rows, core twists. Then with plates on both sides you can do bent rows overhead press, floor press, deadlifts, straight leg deadlifts, wrist curls, etc. Even if you can just snag one pair of 25s (if you could gt your hands on bumper plates that would be great). The door hanger pullup bars are ok and they don't damage the door frame but be extremely careful and never swing. I used those for years before finally getting back to a free standing one. I know everything is pricey right now but i bought this pullup/weight rack pretty cheap and I love it.

would you guys trust a 12 gauge / 14 gauge squat stand? says its rated for 500 lbs (static) for the j cups and pull up bar. Warranty is dog shit, only 30 days. i will probably go max 455 on it on squats. And i cant trust that I will always put it down gently.

​

might just flip it and put it towards a Rogue SML 2

If you're interested, I have a set and a squat stand that I'd be willing to sell. $400 for both. They're lightly used with no signs of wear.

This is the set:

I second this, get a good pull up bar, here is a link to the one that i got for my house, And then attach a pair of rings to it. Rings are way better and more versatile than TRX, primarily because of the variety of grips (you can work False Grip in rings, not really with TRX).

You can progress your pull-ups and dips quite quickly using the Russian Fighter Pull-up Program from Pavel Tsatsouline.

https://www.strongfirst.com/the-fighter-pullup-program-revisited/

Eventually you can get paralletes, but you can work L-sit and some other stuff on the rings so i don't find them that necessary (even though i have them).

By the way, I never used resistance bands ever. I was able to progress from 1 dead hang pullup to 9 dead hang pulls ups within about 40 days using the Fighter pull up program that i linked to above. I also did the same exact protocol for Dips and increased those by a large amount as well.

Biggest thing i'll say is to spread your sets out over the full day. Don't do all 5 sets in one sitting. That way you can make sure your form is perfect.

Recommendations for a power tower to add to my new calisthenics home gym

Hi,

I am about to order a power tower to do pull ups from and hang gymnastic rings from. However, I am very confused and was looking for your opionions. Also, feel free to suggest any other power tower besides the ones that I listed. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JBBRV4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and https://www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Power-Exercise-Stand/dp/B00HYQP72O?th=1#customerReviews

I live in my own house but don't want to use door pull up bar as my door frame creeks every time I hang from it. I am 172 lbs and 5'ft 7''.

I had ordered parallets, gymnastic rings and a Dip station last week but I think I am now caving in for a power tower to do pull ups properly. I just want a power tower that can complement the stuff that I already have. Want to focus on pulls ups , abs and upper body . I had been doing a lot of squat in my gym so my lower body is more developed as compared to my core.

Dip station https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077Z8N3WW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
