Half Racks
A great addition to any gym, Half Racks are what you need for safe, effective strength training and exercises like squats, bench presses and pull-ups.

Bolted down or freestanding, GymEquipment.co.uk has some of the best brands like Spirit, Exigo, Hammer Strength and SwissBarbell.
A gym rack is a piece of weight training equipment that allows the user to perform various different strength exercises, acting as a mechanical spotter. The half rack is different to the power rack due to its open, smaller nature. This gives the user more options with exercises that may require more space, but still gives the option of a spotter. The exercises you can perform are similar with both a power rack and half rack, with the only key difference being training away from the rack when using a half rack.
