Body Solid Squat Rack

We Have the Greatest Selection of Power Racks

A Body Solid squat rack is a necessary part of any gym looking to have a complete free weight program. Squats are an important type of lift that works a large majority of the body’s muscle groups and helps to build supporting muscles for more complicated Olympic-style lifts like the snatch. Not only this, these products help to build micro-muscles that improve tone and help to increase balance and coordination when lifting weight. All of this makes the body stronger and healthier overall as its muscle mass increases.

One difficulty with the squat is the risk involved in setting it up without a rack. To avoid this, racks were built to allow the setting of barbells without the risk of having to completely lift a barbell first to perform the squat and to let the weight go from a reduced height. Racks also help balance barbells to prevent the possibility of rolling, which can cause dangerous injuries and damage to other equipment.

With Body Solid, their racks feature adjustable heights perform more than just squats, including curls, shrugs, calf raises, and others. This is tremendous benefit from such a simple piece of equipment that is rated to hold the heaviest bars and weights.

These products work great alongside other free weight products including smith machines, power racks, and Olympic benches. Each of these presents different opportunities to try lifts. This variety increases strength and flexibility and challenges even seasoned lifters. Furthermore, it provides a great introduction for many people new to lifting who are looking for the right entry point to dive into this important and diverse activity.
