Possible to get a Power Rack which is less that 190cm high?The question is in the title! My home gym will be in my cellar, and the ceilings are only 190cm high. Will it be possible for me to buy a power rack which will fit?
EDIT: The only reason I want a power rack is to be able to perform exercises such as squats and bench pres safely. Would something like this suffice? http://www.fitness-superstore.co.uk/...k_/3331_p.htmlLast edited by CharlieBoardman; 28-07-2012 at 16:21. -

Re: Possible to get a Power Rack which is less that 190cm high?That thing? no- nothing to catch it if you fail at the bottom
You need something like this: https://www.strengthshop.co.uk/equip...quat-rack.html
though it's not obvious if that one is adjustable, I think it is but if not won't do you for benching. If you are interested in that specific one ask before you buyLast edited by BKS; 29-07-2012 at 00:24. -

Re: Possible to get a Power Rack which is less that 190cm high?I can just about make out the safety bars being adjustable. I assume the bb hooks are as well.(Original post by BKS)
