I'm after a power cage/squat rack for a home gym. It's going to replace a dip station, flat bench and multi-gym to free up some space.

I'm struggling to find any reasonably priced ones that are not suited for an olympic bar.

I have 5 foot bars at home and associated weights, I'm only 75kgs so I'm happy with the 5foot bar. Any recommendations of a suitable rack/cage or will they all be for olympic setups?

Thanks

Get yourself an Olympic bar to go with the rack, you won't regret it
