In 2020 the global fitness equipment market reached a value of AUD 16.41 billion. If you're looking at purchasing gym equipment for your home, or commercial use, a Power Rack is a key piece of kit that you can't miss out on.
A Power Rack will enable you to do all kinds of exercises with one piece of equipment, getting you the most out of your workouts.
For a rundown on why it is the perfect piece of equipment for you, keep reading.
What Is a Power Rack?
A Power Rack has a cage structure with 4 vertical bars, and adjustable horizontal bars to allow a barbell to be placed at any height.
If you're after the best Power Rack on the market, VERVE Fitness has a variety of different options to choose from.
Power Rack Components
A standard Power Rack with weights will have J-hooks on both sides that you can move up and down as needed. VERVE Power Racks have west side hole spacings of 25mm to make small, precise adjustments. These are what you will set the barbell between sets or when not in use.

Benefits
With a Power Rack, most exercises can be done alone which is ideal for a home gym. The safety bars and straps of a Power Rack make things more secure.
Compound exercises are very popular as they are considered the most efficient types of exercises you can do to increase full-body strength. This can be in the form of barbell exercises as well as bodyweight exercises.
Some consider Power Racks to be quite expensive, but when looking at how much you can do with them, they are actually quite cost-effective. You can target all muscle groups in various ways, making it one of the most complete pieces of gym equipment you can buy.
What Exercises Can You Do?
A Power Rack is just one piece of equipment but has a wide range of functions. With a standard Power Rack you can do any of the following exercises:
- Squats
- Deadlifts
- Barbell rows
- Barbell shrugs
- Bicep curls
- Overhead press
- Pull-ups
- More
Add in a bench, and you can add in several other exercises.
