PR-5000 V2 Power Rack Does Rep Make The BEST Rack for Home Gyms?

Рет қаралды 54,760

Күн бұрын

The Rep PR-5000 V2 power rack is thought of as a budget version of Rogue's Monster rack. In this video we see if those cost savings result in an inferior rack or if this squat rack is one of the best options for home gyms.
This might be one of Rep's greatest creations but we all know Rogue is still king in the garage gym world. So we compare the price, quality, and options between the the PR-5000 and Rogue Monster lines. This may also help you decide whether a 3x3 rack with 1" hardware is better (or worth the upgrade) from a 5/8" rack. This is in-depth look at Rep's cage covers attachments, build quality, price, and comparisons to help you get a better idea of what's out there and what the best choice is for your gym.

Nice work on the full breakdown. I just added two red PR5000 uprights to my Sorinex rack. There’s a few differences I’ll note for your viewers. The finish on the REP is more textured than my Rogue or Sorinex. In time I may find that means it resists chipping better, but for now it’s just an observation. Since the numbers start about 1/5 the way up, the numbers don’t line up to other racks. Not a huge deal since numbers are where you’d likely add attachments but I didn’t expect that. The REP cutout logo on the upright was right where I wanted to put a crossmember, so I had to go up a few inches. I like the cutout but wish it wasn’t in the way. Mixing Inches/metric can work if your crossmembers are ovals like Sorinex, but the bigger distance between your first and last crossmember, the bigger the gap.

I’m seriously looking to purchase a rack soon and very possibly this PR-5000. In this video he states the cost at 3 grand. I’ve commented and he has replied stating that he got all attachments and the full gym. I don’t know if he is talking about bars and weights. I just need the rack and a few accessories and attachments. If it’s not to personal could you possibly let us know about what you paid? I’m budget minded to some degree avoiding Sorinex and Rogue but just kind of getting an idea of what I might have to spend.

@GlucksGym 2 жыл бұрын

My rack with all the Rep PR 5000 attachments was just under 3k. That's the rack as a 6 post setup, landmine, strap safeties, drop safeties, both sets of j cups, spotter arms, dip attachment, globe pull up bar. That 3k is the rack and all the attachments I have (and almost everything Rep offers) but I might've missed something in there.

Also, agreed on that commenter… that was very creepy. Separately, the buy American only guys get annoying fast since we all know their clothes, furniture, car parts and everything else are made overseas but they draw the line at gym equipment and act like they’re better than everyone else.

Great video, I'm glad I found your channel! I'm rack shopping for a small apartment bedroom (not ideal LOL but it's the space I have). I think I've decided on Rep, but still debating about which model. I want to leave room for the most upgradeability and expansion, in case I move to a bigger place some day. I've been mostly looking at their Apollo and Omni racks, because bolting down is not an option for me, but I'm starting to look at the 5000 as well - as long as it's safe to not bolt it!! Your videos, and some of the other channels I've found, are proving super helpful. Thank you!

@GlucksGym Жыл бұрын

Depending what you're doing with it it may not have to be bolted down or you can get front feet for it. Don't sleep on the PR 4000 either. We've reviewed it but since then they've updated the hole spacing to be equal on all 4 sides like on the 5000

Great review as always. I'd like to point out two small issues I have with my PR-5000 configuration: 1. If you choose the Multi-Grip pull up bar, and the lat pull down attachment, you better get the 41-inch depth version. For my 30-inch depth rack, there is just not enough room for your head if you want to use the fat grip of the pull up bar inside the rack. 2. you need to consider the space needed on the uprights for the spotter arms. I was thinking using the flip-down safeties for benching, and the spotter arms for squat, so I dont need to reset the height for each movement. But it turns out that the spotter arms takes about 10 inches of space on the uprights, and there is just not enough room for the two safety options to be set for the desired height at the same time.

Great review! Currently in the process of shopping around for a garage rack replacement. I got a junk-tier setup maybe 7-8yrs ago (cheapest thing at Titan Fitness), but it's gotten to the point where I really know what I like and what I absolutely hate. I was leaning heavily toward Titan's X3, but to be honest, I had forgotten about laser-cut numbers. Kind of like what you showed in the video, I have had to make use of marker doodles on athletic tape to remember heights for pins and really need something better. I hadn't given REP a look for racks, but the benches I got from them are solid. I'm still kind of on-the-fence between 5/8" and 1" holes, but to be honest, given the price difference, I'm sure the 5/8" on the 4000 will do me fine (plus it seems every time I see an attachment I like, it doesn't come in 5/8"). Will keep an eye on their prices for a bit longer before pulling the trigger. Thanks!

What’s nice is the huge 1 3/8” holes that very neatly accept 1” plumbing pipe fittings from the hardware store, so I make my own safeties, j-hooks etc. for next to nothing. It didn’t come with plate storage so I made that as well by bolting 4x4s to the front and attaching storage pins from Rogue. Great review and entertaining as always!

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZamlqqBmainl6M.html Never done this before, but hopefully this link shows the rack and my custom goodies. Please forgive the old guy pot belly. FYI the long safeties are tapped with 1/4-20 threads to accept thumb screws so they don’t accidentally fall out, and have 1” cold rolled steel rods inside them for the best possible strength. The storage being so close to my face when squatting is a concern; if I dump a squat I need to make sure I don’t fall forward and hit my head on the 4x4s or other hardware. But at least the whole thing fits in the limited available space.

@Gluck'sGym or any other knowledgeable party, is it conceivable for one to install 2 of the lat pull down systems on the sides of the cage, when using the 41" sides, to effectively create a two pully dual arm system?

@RJArrayCPA 5 ай бұрын

What configuration of this PR 5000 would you recommend if I wanted to add the dual plate loaded Athena while not having to bolt this thing to the floor? If I went with the plate loaded version, I would have to sacrifice the rear plate storage uprights, as that would get in the way of the pulley trolleys.

@Sadtiric 2 жыл бұрын

Glad to hear you've had a good experience as well! I've been loving my PR-4000, just waiting for the rest of the pieces for my lat pulldown to come in today! I wonder if you would do a slightly more in-depth comparison (short?) about west side spacing vs the standard 2" spacing all the way down as far as the actual utility of the closer spacing in the bench range goes? I feel like I made the right choice with the 4000 but, like you said, all the cool stuff is for the 1" hole 3x3 like the PR-5000.

@GlucksGym 2 жыл бұрын

Glad to hear you're enjoying yours. Westside really just gives you shorter increments so you can adjust the lift off point for things like bench. It also has the same result with the safeties. Allowing you to position them more precisely so you can still get out from under the bar but it's not getting in the way of your range of motion.

@Sadtiric 2 жыл бұрын

@@GlucksGym Yeah, the idea behind it sounds really well thought out and all, but in practice it seems to be a little less.. practical? To word it differently, in your opinion, is it worth sacrificing all the potential add-ons to have a negligible (?) difference in lift-off height? I feel like I "fell for" the marketing for the West Side spacing, along with being nudged by the concern of my wallet instead of just waiting another month or two and saving for the "big boy" rack. Though, like you said, even the 4000 is more than any home gym really needs. If you could pick ONE for most people, which would it be? Sorry for such a long reply and thanks for yours!

Rep has lowered j cups but they're not as fancy as the sandwich or round. They'll be releasing others this year as well. I have the same issue with Wynie so I always put it lower and I deal with it and let her squat at her ideal height. Many other j cups will fit though you may want to shim the uhmw to get them to fit tighter if you find they're too loose (going American to metric for example). Thanks for using the link! In 2 weeks or so I'll have a video that talks about the shim thing but I've probably shown it in others. I'll have to look at all my American cups to see which is any that I have straddle that 1"

How is the lateral rigidity? Does it flex if you stand inside of it and rock side to side against the uprights? I got mine a couple months ago, and while it's super nice, overkill and clearly I'm at no risk of it ever collapsing on me, I was kind of surprised at how easy it was to make it flex/wobble side to side. I don't mean it was coming off the ground, just that it wasn't as rigid as I expected for how beefy it is. Enough to make the weights on the weight horns shake and rattle. However, rep accidentally sent me 41" crossmembers for the rear section, instead of 19", so mine is two 41" sections front to back, which probably makes it a bit weaker laterally. I'm hoping once I switch to 16" crossmembers for the rear, it'll tighten up. In fact Rep didn't ask for those extra 41s back, so I might just use of of them as a brace across the top of the weight storage uprights. Can't hurt, anyway.

@GlucksGym 2 жыл бұрын

It'll sway a bit side to side if you're dipping off the side or pushing from the sides but it's pretty dang solid and I have no worries about it. If you had the rear brace it would make it more tank like but it's so much more rigid then my old Rogue 2x3 and that had the brace.

@Threxx 2 жыл бұрын

@@GlucksGym I actually have the rear brace. I noticed yours wobbles similarly to mine when doing dips (I saw that part of the vid right after I commented). I'll see what changes when I get the 16" crossmembers swapped in and put that spare 41" crossmember in up high. I know it's just silly OCD stuff... not wanting lateral sway, but that's why we buy overkill racks in the first place right? On that note, I have never tried the same thing on a rogue monster rack.

Oh that's a fun one. The 5000 allows you to build off to the sides easier but is probably an overblown advantage. How many of us truly do? But it is nice to be able to have the freedom to put stuff wherever. But the oversized hardware starts to add up the cost on accessories. Then again 1" racks are often the first to get new stuff but Rep has been doing good lately at releasing it all at the same time. That being said if you're using other comanies stuff who knows. With the 4000 I like Westside spacing because the size difference in Wynie and I is enough that with bench for example with our 5000 we have to set it so low I can't unrack after like 75% 1rm.
