Squat racks and stands are essential for anyone serious about strength training. These pieces of equipment provide the stability and support needed to perform barbell exercises safely and efficiently. Whether you're training at home or outfitting a professional gym, a squat rack serves as the foundation for key compound lifts such as squats, overhead presses, and bench presses.

Ideal for lifters of all experience levels, racks allow you to lift with confidence, especially when training alone. They help prevent injury by offering adjustable safety catches and secure barbell placements, promoting correct technique under load. As part of our trusted gym machines and equipment collection, Welzo’s squat racks and stands are selected for their build quality, safety features, and space-saving versatility.

Benefits of Squat Racks & Stands

• Safe lifting environment
  Racks offer built-in safety arms and adjustable height settings, helping users perform heavy lifts without a spotter.

• Versatile training options
  Beyond squats, you can use these setups for bench presses, lunges, overhead work, and more.

• Supports long-term strength goals
  Consistent, controlled lifting with proper rack setup allows for progressive overload and muscle development.

To complement your rack setup, a high-quality weight bench adds valuable versatility. It allows you to perform presses and other seated or lying movements with full support and alignment.

For users incorporating barbell training into their programme, pairing your rack with durable weight plates and bars ensures you’re lifting with balanced, precision-calibrated equipment that’s built to last.

Most Common Types of Racks and Stands

Welzo offers a variety of options to suit different space constraints and training preferences:

• Full power cages – Provide enclosed lifting spaces with built-in pull-up bars and extra safety features.

• Half racks and squat stands – Compact and mobile, ideal for home gyms where space is limited.

• Adjustable stands – Easy to reposition and customise based on height or exercise type.

If you're focused on functional strength and conditioning, combining rack training with a weight sled introduces movement-based resistance that complements static barbell work.

To expand into more dynamic routines, using kettlebells alongside your rack can add explosive, single-arm strength training and core stability work.

Protecting your lifting space is also crucial. Welzo offers gym mats and flooring designed to handle dropped weights, reduce noise, and keep your gym surface secure and intact.
