    OHP from rack vs clean from floor

    Has anyone else noticed that if they clean the bar from the floor prior to overhead presses rather than just lifting it out from the rack at chest height, you are able to press more weight / the same weight feels easier? I am trying to work out why on earth this would be the case for me - my...

    Any feedback on this rack? (W8PL8)

    Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum. Finally decided to make the switch from a commercial gym to a home gym for a variety of reasons. I'm basing my home gym around a power rack, bench and oly bar/plates (i focus on the big 3 for the most part). This is the rack I have been seriously...

    P90x vs Power Rack

    So my cousin has fallen victim to the P90x program and I'm trying to convert him to lifting weights like you know, a man! Sorry ladies of ausBB, I mean, like a real "person" :p He's not fat and he's quite strong for the limited amount of lifting experience he has so I thought the P90x is not...

    Force USA F-PC Power Rack

    My 1st post is a question sorry :eek: I'm seriously considering getting this rack as it looks pretty solid but the weight ratings seem a bit exaggerated. Could any owners tell me the pros and cons of this unit. Also if anyone has the lat pulldown, is it of good quality ?. Thanks, Marcus

    PowerTec vs MMPR Rack (non commercial)

    As much as i really want the MM commercial rack, it looks like i might be forced to put my rack in the garage at this point which doesn't have the clearance to pull the commercial spotter rods out the front. (and i'll be going side on to maximise bar space width wise, so my front to back...

    Muscle motion commercial rack lat attachment?

    Does anyone know if there is a rack lat attachment that it would be possible to bolt to the muscle motion commercial rack? I like the commercial rack as a hoe gym option, but in my 3mx3m work out space a lat pulldown is only going to fit my layout as a rack attachment
