How to install a crossfit rack at home

From the Bileven blog we tell you what elements you need to turn your home into a mini box. And if you are thinking of setting up a CrossFit rack at home, read these tips.

Surely you have thought about it at some point, even more so in the wake of the covid pandemic. Installing a CrossFit rack at home or in the garage is a fantastic option to be able to train on your own, with all the comforts and at the time of day you prefer. In the world of CrossFit, or fitness and bodybuilding in general, the rack is the metal structure built with metal materials. This frame allows the execution of a large number of exercises and functionalities, thanks to the layout and shape it has. Rack is a globalized concept, which in Spanish we could translate as weight cage or power cage. Therefore, if you have always wanted to set up your own training space in your home, and you have wondered what you need to achieve it, we will quickly tell you what you need to know about one of the essential elements to achieve it: the CrossFit rack .

What is the price of a rack

Of course, the first thing to take into account is the budget you have, since a CrossFit rack is not usually cheap. Therefore, setting up a home gym, economically, must be done progressively. The logical and most advisable thing is to go little by little, unless you have enough money to set it up quickly. It is essential to invest in good quality products, which in the end will be more durable, safer and will satisfy your needs effectively. This does not mean going for the most expensive, but simply investing in a product that is worth it, since it will serve better and longer. The quality of the materials, or having an expert who knows the subject, if you need it to set up a larger home gym, are essential aspects. If you already practice CrossFit, you will know that there are a series of essential elements to be able to perform various exercises: dumbbells, bars, kettlebells or kettlebells... and, of course, a structure, the rack. The average price of a CrossFit rack usually ranges between 600 and 700 euros in specialized sports stores. However, Bileven offers you crossfit racks with the most economical and competitive prices on the market.

Bileven Rack: two rack options at the best price

Among the crossfit rack options offered by Bileven, you can find two custom-made structures, designed by our team of engineers and at factory prices. These are:

• Crossfit Power I Rack: this model has a horizontal bar that connects both vertical supports, allowing you to perform exercises such as the chin-up or pull-up.
• Crossfit Squat Rack: uniform steel structure, ideal for performing squats or squats.

Benefits of having a rack at home

It is important to make it clear that we do not encourage you to stop going to the usual box or training center. Training accompanied by friends and colleagues makes you and others better, and is very important both to be able to perform at the highest level and to learn from others. However, having a rack at home has attractive benefits:

• Total availability, because you can train at any time you want, and for as long as you want.
• Variety of exercises to perform, since you can add basic ones such as squats with a bar or pull-ups.
• Maximum comfort: your rack, your rules.

What is a crossfit rack for? How to install it at home

The rack or structure will be used to practice a wide range of strength exercises, and if it has a horizontal bar, you can even do pull-ups. In addition, it will also help you practice weightlifting exercises. If you have a comfortable budget, you can get a power rack, but a house with little space will not offer many alternatives. However, brands like Bileven adapt to the needs of each client, designing and building each cage to measure. Furthermore, our brand offers this alternative not only for individuals, but also for CrossFit boxes that need their first racks, or expand those they already have in their facilities.
