" ... We needed something a little shorter than most commercial racks so it would fit in our space but I didn't want to have to duck to get into the rack or bend my knees to my chin to do pullups. ... This rack system met both of our requirements and had the added bonus of the dip bars (which I totally love). ... "
" ... The HulkFit is a good basic rack to use. ... Doing pull ups is amazing on the rack and it is the perfect height for me which I am 5'8". ... "
" ... After reviewing many products and reviews, I came upon this one and fell in love with the look, the capacity, and being able to do many workouts from the comfort of my own home. ... I would highly recommend this product for those that have a busy schedule, don’t have time to go to a gym, and have space to do so. ... "
" ... This HulkFit 1000lbs rack definitely fits what we were looking for! ... "
" ... I researched squat racks a lot and for the price and functionality with the pulley system, this is the best deal out there. ... "
" ... This rack is well worth the price in my opinion. ... "
" ... This power rack is well made and quite sturdy. ... "
" ... There is plenty of room inside the cage to do squats and deadlifts, which I was concerned about. ... "
