FAQs
Read below for the answers to our most commonly asked questions.
What’s the difference between power racks, squat racks and half racks?
Power racks, squat racks and half racks are all designed for strength training, but their differences lie in structure and functionality.
-
Power Racks: A power rack is a four-post structure with adjustable safety bars for maximum safety. Power racks allow you to perform many different exercises, including squats and bench presses.
-
Squat Racks: Squat racks or squat stands are simpler, boasting a two-post design intended for squats, making them less versatile than a power rack.
-
Half Racks: A hybrid rack, the half rack combines features of both power and squat racks, with two upright posts while including features such as safety arms and pull-up bars. This makes them more comprehensive than a squat rack and takes up less floor space than a power rack.
What exercises can I do with a half rack?
A half rack is the ideal choice for increasing strength, plus it’s perfect for home gym owners needing strength equipment without investing in cumbersome power racks.
Key features of this rack include an adjustable safety bar, meaning you can perform exercises such as bench presses, bent-over rows, bicep curls, squats and overhead presses. For strength training, incorporate movements such as deadlifts, pull-ups, tricep dips and lateral pull-downs.
Which pieces of gym equipment complement half racks?
Several pieces of equipment can enhance the functionality of half racks, with four main additions being an adjustable bench, weight plates, barbells and resistance bands.
-
Adjustable Bench: A must-have if you want to perform exercises such as bench presses, overhead presses, and incline/decline exercises with dumbbells. This is great for working a variety of muscles and building strength.
-
Weight Plates and Barbells: Essential for building strength, Olympic barbells are best paired with bumper, cast-iron or rubber-coated plates for squats, deadlifts and presses. A high-quality barbell with a good knurling grip and weight capacity will help you maximise your strength training.
-
Resistance Bands: Resistance bands can be useful for warm-ups, mobility exercises and adding variable resistance to weights to increase the intensity of your lifts. Resistance bands are budget-friendly and easily accessible if you’d like to upgrade your strength training without breaking the bank on more plates.
