Or a power rack? For a home gym set up

Get the titan short rack

power rack is more versatile

A half rack is fine.

What are some benefits of a full vs half power rack? Like what are the functional differences?

I got a full powerrack with a bar and adjustable bench for 250 on craigslist

full power rack has safety bars so you don't die when squating and benching alone. You can also do things like rack pulls and rows easier with the safety bars.

power rack provides security.

Half rack is fine.

Half racks can have added spotter arms like pic related.

Power racks HAVE. Plus most half racks with that have retarded pricing
>>

power rack probably if you're doing low bar I guess. If high bar just get a half rack. Been training for 2 years in my back yard and have no problem with a half rack and a bench.

Thanks mate

I've always preferred squatting using one of these.
>>

There is a kit for Rogue racks that turn it into a yoke/sled as well. That is the most versatile, since you can turn your rack into an awkward yoke/prowler.
>>

How much does one of these cost/where to buy?
>>
>>37319810
a power rack's still better if you're a retard like me. i have a half rack, managed to miss the spotter arms when bailing a squat, and now my floor's fucked.

doesn't even have safeties, you're going to kill yourself kid
