Nice review - covered all the important points. Some people definitely go overboard with equipment and get nervous about a bit of instability. I have a basic 4 post Bodysolid rack that has given 10yrs good service.
It only has one plate pin. The other is a barbell stand and it's too wide a diameter to put a plate on it. It works fine if you load the one pin though.
Thanks I have been looking around for something like this mainly that can handle the suspension trainer. Not many people out there demo doing suspension trainer on a small rack or power tower. This will be perfect can add to it slowly to do barbell stuff if I feel like it
If the uprights were one piece it would be a GREAT value, however,connecting uprights in the center scares the daylight out of me as many bad things can and will happen if you go over 300 pounds.
Can I ask what the measurements are for this rack? In particular, how wide is it? I see the measurements online say it is about 46 inches, but I don't think that includes the little ground anchors on each side. I have a space that is 48 inches wide and want to use the Cap Barbell rack as as a pullup bar. Thanks!
Damn!! I took a Sat and built one outside....had I known this thing only cost that much, I'd hav just bought that!!🤦♂️ wouldnt be pulling an "Arnold" and putting hundreds of pounds on it, woulda been fine....damn, I'm kinda bummed I missed out on it. 👍 good stuff.
Hard to say. The deluxe is still a "cheap" rack but just a slightly bigger build. It does some with the safety bars so that is a big plus, because you'd have to buy these extra on this one.
