Garage Gym $50 Dollar DIY Squat/Power Rack | 2020 COVID19 Lock Down
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 кві 2020
- With gyms closing due to the corona virus outbreak, finding gym equipment has been tough so i decided to build my own Wooden power rack
Details of the build.
List of materials/measurements : • UPDATE! Part 2 | Garag...
This has to be the 4th or 5th homemade power rack I have seen on youtube that people have CUSTOM BUILT FOR THEMSELVES with the squat rack too high. you SHOULD NOT unrack a squat on your toes. If you put any substantial weight on the bar and unrack on your toes you will fall. Stay safe guys, dont hurt yourself on avoidable mistakes.
That part was painful to watch.
this is stupid. I have a stand alone squat rack (store bought) and I have been unloading the bar from 135 pounds to 425 now ON MY TOES. why don't you just do yourself a favor and act like you know all is perfect.
great video eddy!
Alan Zac it’s a safety precaution. You should be able to retail a squat by dropping it if your legs give out from a hard rep, not calf raising it. If you still have enough energy to calf raise it after a burn out set than you’re not trying hard enough.
@@codemajic8238 Never unrack on your toes, thats basic squat knowledge.
@@codemajic8238 everyone learns bro. No needs to get butthurt over someone trying to help. It wasnt said in a negative manner.
I thought his shoulders were popping like popcorn at 5:23 😂 turns out it was just his feet on the floor lmao
Joe Black so my shoulders arent supposed to make that noise 😕
Really impressive man! This virus can't stop the gain train lol
not a chance!
Wooooo!
could you make a supply list please, i want to build this
This is the best simplest DIY rack I’ve seen so far! I’d like to know how much it would hold.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Great work man! This situation is showing the best side of doers and the worst of haters🙄. Keep training and stay safe!! Greetings from Perú 🇵🇪
Just want to say thank you. Building one now. Wish I could attach a pic or two. Gonna finish it tomorrow, unless other things interfere (not likely, but can't promise).
Alan May awesome! Good stuff
Can you post the list of stuff you used for this?
*MY ASSUMPTION*
WOOD
2 x (4 in. x 4 in. x 8 ft)
3 x (2 in. x 4 in. x 96 in.)
HARDWARE
4 x (3 in. x 7 in. Tie Plate / 16-gauge steel)
I don't know what screws he used but I recommend the
one listed to screw into the 4x4s
? x (1/4 in. x 6 in. // Lag Screw @95¢ each)
The screws he used for the bent tie plate bar catch
? x (#6 x 1-5/8 in. Philips Bugle-Head Coarse Thread Gold Screw)
1 x (1-1/4-in x 72-in Galvanized Steel Bar)
Screws and nails are tough right now here. Found some good ones for not bad prices, but most quality stuff is either out of stock or ridiculous.
Description
Alan May lol what do you mean? Get a box of nails for a nail gun because they’re cheaper and just use those nails
Lag screws are great for wood
There’s a lot of trust in those little chock block racks. Screws unfortunately aren’t designed for shear stress like that. If you use continuous lengths of 2x4 and have them stepped down it would hold up better. Like, the ultimate thickness would be 3 2x4’s at the lowest point. Especially because I imagine some people who want to recreate this might grab drywall screws not knowing any better and end up with a loaded bar on top of them. Could use some fine tuning, but it’s a good start
Joe Boyle even a structural screw 4inch would be good
Using drywall screws would be a disaster. I'm thinking at least a 1/4 X 4 1/2 Hex Lag Bolt Gr. 2.
Nice ceiling mounted shelves. Those are awesome! Good work.
Good job, brother! you can also shoulder press in that beauty! Blessings!
That was dope af. Squat rack, press, & pull up bar is a must in my opinion. I mean u can execute all major compound movements.
Wow! Great job and totally doable. The pull up bar addition is super cool. Just built a pull up bar out of some pipe and a couple elbows. Now i'm gonna havta take it down and fasten it to this squat rack. Thanks
Can you please make a list of what you bought
Safe, simple & straight to the point. Nothing fancy & like you said, it gets the job done. Nice work, I’m making this shit tomorrow
Did you do this?
I don't know squat about woodwork. Yet, I just built the same rack. Thank you!
Ha! Good one! You dont know *squat* about it eh?
In response to the intro - Wood can be just as strong as steel, if not stronger, if you use timber framing/japanese joinery joints such as haunched mortice and tennon and the three way mitre. They do take time and skill but as we've all seen pallets, done properly wood can can withstand tonnes. use load bearing shapes like an equalateral triangle. For a squat rack/cage, don't be afraid to use 4x4 at a minimum. You can turn the barbell unloaded into a pull up bar
Yo dun, thanks for the video. My wife and I made one today. Works great!
I made the squat and press mounts low enough for her, and they work fine for me. The squat rack doubles as the incline press mount too.
Thank you!
Good job man. Gonna try the same some day maybe. Here in Germany even the wood would cost me way over 150 euros tho :D
good work bro .keep it up bro💯💯💪😷
Man that's an awesome idea!! Before the whole lockdown I was experiencing some elbow and shoulder pain during OHP so i've taken about a month off of lifting period to just let my body heal. I ordered a steel mace from onnit and have some of my pops old weights that i'm going to scrounge together to hopefully be able to start lifting again so I don't lose my gains by the time things get better.
I love the fact that you can still do incline bench and even flat bench if you wanted to. Nice man.
thats sad to hear. hope your injury gets better man and im sure this idea will get you back on track. just take things easy and slow. take care
Edwine Concepcion Thanks bro. 🤙🏻
Good job btw Eddy. Entertaining and interesting. You could build a children’s fort with a slide and places to climb for your next build, then ship it to me.
Great job !!!! Only thing you should have done differently is lowered the bar placement catches buy about 4”-5” each one so you can use it for flat benching and so you don’t have to stand on your tippy toes to re-rack while squatting. But still looks great
I got a saw and I want to build something so I will build this!!! Thanks for sharing
Honestly super impressive this is completely out of wood... major props! My only recommendation might be to shave the bottom edge of the wood blocks supporting the squat bar rack holds so that it makes the un-racking easier on the incline bench
Alex Herrmann thank you! I see what you mean. It does get in the way but still manageable. I also mainly use this for squats and pull ups so I’ll leave it alone for now
Well done man. Great idea and well built. Seems very sturdy. I feel like making one even though i already have a metal power rack.
Ivan Djuric thanks brotha. Build is fun. Do it if you have some more space!
Sta ima?
UnknownUser nista man. Kako si?
pretty good for just lifting some smaller weights, but better than nothing... good job! great job.!
be careful
Excellent presentation.
Years ago I needed a squat rack at home but couldn’t afford one. I found 4 blocks of wood and several long nails and nailed the blocks to 2 medium sized trees that were about 3-1/2 feet apart(in my yard). The blocks were offset to to prevent the barbell from rolling. It worked. The cost to me was $0.00
Who is down voting this video? Really great concept. Thanks for sharing.
Diy racks look way more sturdy than the flimsy cheap ones So disappointed you didn't record the whole process.
Solid build man
Wow can't believe you built this by yourself. Good job!
saragamo thanks! Check out the other one that I built. 10x better
I'm surprised with some of the negative reviews. I was so impressed with the ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxMwYg0MOXR4M-oGeyBsNSYe1aPOUoRH6D cage that I got the lat pulldown attachment that goes with it. It is equally outstanding. I don't have one complaint other than putting it together is a job. The instructions and packaging of the parts are very well designed and organized. Also, I stripped and damaged the pull down cable the first day, admitting it was my stupid fault, and they quickly replaced it at no charge. I'm 6'5, 280lbs and fit in the cage just fine. Glenn B
There’s literally a million different ways to build something like this. I can’t stand it when people start hating cuz he didn’t build it the exact same way they would. Nice build dog looks good 👍
i8dapuszy thanks bro
Most definitely going to try this. I want to try and implement a dip bar area too
This really helped and encouraged me! Awesome video bro
Way better than those wood on concrete bucket type builds. Those are unstable and are actually quite dangerous. Great video!
Why did you set the adjustment to for bench press to incline and not flat? Is it more stable on an incline bench press or is it just purely preference?
James Elij San Andres thanks! And I agree. I feel those are less functional than a unit. The bench that I have has elevated seat and makes it uncomfortable to bench flat and I also prefer incline more
@@_Apeflex Inclines are far better, you got that right.
This is what I would make if I was stuck in the past like Marty McFly in Back to the Future III.
Bro that’s some impressive shit looks lean aswell and most importantly safe
Activate A uh i think the re rack is too high, you shouldnt have to tip toe to re rack for a squat
MegaZepho so put yours lower, geesh 🤦♂️
poolkrooni you’re missing the point, geesh 🤦♂️
MegaZepho you are missing the point
HI - Did you ever post the dimensions and the complete list? Can't see the top of the HD receipt, but I am guessing it was the pipe. Thanks for sharing - hope to build this weekend.
Stephanie Mclaughlin I meant to but totally forgot. I will post an update including a full list and dimensions🙂
@@_Apeflex Thanks Eddy! - Can't wait to start this project!
I'm glad youtube decided to put a link to the CDC's page on covid on this video that has literally nothing to do with covid.
Really inspires me to stop not giving a fuck.
Wow really good. I need that squat rack in my garage thats gonna be my project tomorrow...
Dang that is badass. Good job bro. I have that same bench and several sets of dumbbells ranging from 10lbs to 50lbs that I'm using for now. Probably try to add a 7 foot bar and plates with a squat rack to complete my home setup. Working out at home is a lot easier.
Can you post a list of wood and all that you bought and measurements ?
Dope build man! Would love for you to post a comment with all the things you used to make it easier to copy and paste for a shopping list 🙌🏽
Nice set I love garage gyms.
That's a pretty clean build! Nice work.
Post the list of stuff!
Great job, very nice thanks
Looks great and well built too! Enjoy the quarantine training!
Definitely prefer this to buff dudes idea for barbell holder, pipe fittings too complex and expensive for parts the nail plates look slicker aswell
Great job man. Ciao da Roma
Get a ice box and put 30 bricks in it for squats, awesome set up bro!!!!🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Good work. Shame to rush drilling holes that don't line up
Amazing work really enjoy watching your video💪🏾💯
Looks great, but i wouldnt trust those j cups or the constant shaking with my life.
Absolutely awesome job 👍👍
Nice build! Quick and simple!
IDK how safe that is when the weights start getting heavier. A real heavy duty bench and squat rack will.pay for itself if u cancel your gym membership
If you use 4x4s they're basically indestructible
Agreed but the problem I'm having is finding one. I don't need to spend $1500. I'd like a nice rack $6-$700 but everywhere is sold out. I'd be ok if I had to do this for a few weeks. Weights should be early next week. Miss picking up the weights 👍.
@@jasonthieme8926 I bought a heavy duty bench/squat rack combo that safely holds up to 800 pound. Bought it on eBay for only 350
@@jasonthieme8926 and BTW depending on where you live gyms are closed indefinitely and when they reopen there's no guarantee there not doing this again so I would absolutely recommend buying equipment
@@jasonthieme8926 If you live in Arizona, I got a rack for $500 new in box
Decent, with that amount of weight this should hold up fine. If you do perhaps end up using it with more weight I'd suggest swapping out the strongties for something more durable like a piece of 4x4 with a bolt going through the post and cut out for the bar and a front brace too. Enjoy your workouts!
Kay Bakkali I agree. Check out the other rack I built. It’s way stronger
Eddy Concepcion I’ll have a look now. Props on actually getting it done, everyone has something to say but not everyone can actually get it done.
Kay Bakkali yep. I built out of boredom and necessity. Works for me and that’s all that matters
I love it! Great job!!
Nice Chuck's Brah
A you did a great job on
Great job. Thanks for posting it.
Good job!
good job but i would add some safety bars to squeeze the last rep out
Ladies and gentlemen....The Concepcion Contraption !!!!
This is really dangerous. Those screws typically hold up ~50 lbs so 4 screws on the squat j cups only really gives me confidence up to 200 lbs.
Edit: just imagine that you can bend your j cups with your hands like he did and ask if his hands create more force than a loaded barbell
Brian Hsieh he put 4 in each side so 400 lbs rather
Improvement Through Movement I counted 4 on top and 4 on bottom so... maybe. What worries me way more is the j cup just unfolding under the weight of a loaded barbell
Brian Hsieh potentially but the force is pushing down and not out to the sides so in my eyes as long as he doesn’t shake the weight back and forth while unracking and racking it should be good, I do agree he probably could’ve gotten something slightly more sturdy though
Dude the only way it’ll unfold is if the foundation of the rack wasn’t straight. It’ll be pretty solid for med weight
He did say he wanted something simple, that gets the job done, cheap, and he could dispose of it easily. It's not a permanent replacement for his workouts. I also don't think he is trying to lift +300lbs on that, so he should be safe.
very good !
Kudos for the effort. Also squat form looks good. But I've never understood the sense of building a rack without safety bars.
Thank you. It’s a temporary rack and don’t plan on really overloading it. I’m no pro power lifter but lift a pretty decent weight. I can safely, with confidence play with 315 without the need of safety bars and all I have is 275 so I wasn’t too worried
Bro, you need to put the 2x4's on the front that holds the bar both for squat and bench load/weight bearing, as in the 2x4 should be hitting the ground to support to the weight being put on it. Do not trust the screws alone. Screws are fine to keep things from wobbling back and fourth but you're a pretty strong guy and i have a bad feeling that thing is gonna fail eventually.
This exactly. The wood is not the issue, but the barbell is being supported by the screws alone from the 2x4 to the 4x4. I would run that 2x4 straight to the ground, then run another one in front of that for bench height.
Fantastico!!!!!👍👍👍👍
I’m gonna use this template as a pull up bar only
nice!
Nice squats.
Well done man! You should paint it and really give it a custom look.
Looks good man
Good Video dude
Nice job
This is Fire as hell !
Great video
Thank you
Nice build! I've seen a whole lot of these recently and just wanted to offer a few tips for anyone that considers building one, whether it's this one here or any other power rack out of wood.
1. SPEND 5 FUCKING BUCKS ON SOME WOOD GLUE
-This will massively increase the strength of all of the joints in the frame that are only held together by a couple of screws.
2. I wouldn't use those flimsy plates as the barbell rack. Just cut another piece of the wood you've used from the frame with a slight angle on top so it creates almost a V shape between it and the frame, and glue and screw that in, plenty of screws, too. Less effort, more sturdy. If you're really worried about the joint strength of glue and screws, use a whole beam to the full height, so the force is driven into the ground.
Finally, when you come to fixing on the parts that your bar is going to rest on, do it LAST. You will be pissed if it's 1" too high and you can't adjust it. Stand there with an empty bar and get someone to draw a line under it, so you can see exactly where it should be for your bench and however high you need to rack after squatting.
Don't worry, not critiquing your build or anything, for the most part it looks very good, and will certainly do the job while we all have to suck it up and work out at home! Just thought that after a few years making precision parts and doing a whole lot of woodworking, it's only right that I share my concerns, because I imagine a lot of people are gonna be building these now and some of the things I know, I only know through making the mistake in the first place. With something like a weight rack like this, that mistake could cause someone serious injury. So stay safe out there folks! Build things properly, wash your fuckin hands. Much love!
Curt's Clashers Use glue for sure! I used lag screws as fasteners. Easier and stronger. I also laminated 2X6 lumber instead of using solid and used 4 uprights like a typical power rack. Instead of attaching blocks to hold the bar I bored holes through the uprights and used solid steel bars with collars on the ends. Never moved and I could set to various heights. Tied the rack into the wall for more stability. Was squatting over 450 lbs. for reps and benching over 300 for reps at the time. Never an issue. Also, built a bench from 2 X 4 lumber with a 3/4” plywood top and foam rubber padding with a thick fabric upholstery. That bench saw regular use for about 30 years until it got tossed during a move. No problem using wood if you know what you’re doing!
@@a_nick_t Yes tht sounds awesome! I like the idea of the steel bar with collars for racking the weight, too, seems like far less effort and very sturdy. Too right, you can use wood for anything you want, as long as you do it right, it will serve the same purpose as anything else on the market!
Simple and clever man, hey what did you expect ? ^^ Thanks and Gratz ^^
thats awesome
Hella dope bro. You got a new subscriber mate!

nice! you could even add a lower notch to flat bench
Sick. Good job.
Nice man
Very cool!
Thank you
would you have the measurements i can use i want to build this? i would appreciated
Sweeet!! Good job my man!
What piping did you use for the pull-up bar?
Jordan Marino yes
You need make a video about the last part. good job too bro!
That’s awesome, I just finished building my squat rack which is pretty similar.
I'm impressed
Realmente alucinante, y bien elaborado
Nice job. I was wondering how I would cope with positioning the bar for the different heights needed for flat bench press, decline and incline. My only worry is that there is no safety net. If anything goes wrong and you need to get rid of the bar there is nothing you can do other than lift it back onto the bar stop. I will see if I can come up with anything that doesn’t get in the way.
Just found your channel and subbed. Thanks for sharing!!!
