The Powerline PPR500 Half Rack, or squat stand, is a commercial grade workstation designed for home or garage gym use. For those who don’t have the space or can’t be bothered with a full power rack setup, the PPR500 offers much of the same functionality and optional attachments that you would find with traditional power racks but with a smaller footprint.

Powerline PPR500 Half Rack

Being a part of Body-Solid one should expect the Powerline PPR500 Half Rack to be on par with the quality we’ve come to know, and it is. At 83″ tall when assembled, the PPR500 can easily be deployed and used in most locations even with vertical space challenges. With 2″ x 2″ heavy-gauge steel frames and weighing 112lbs, the Powerline Half Rack supports up to 700lbs.

The full dimension of this model is 50.2”L x 50.9”W x 83” with 2″ hole spacing, and while not supporting as much weight as some other half racks on the market, the PPR500 half rack is sufficient for the majority audience who simply need an at-home option. It’s backed by a 10-year warranty on the frame and 1-year on all parts.

Attachments

What sets the Powerline PPR500 Half Rack apart from most half racks is its optional attachments. This model offers a rack extension that provides spotter access, capability to add u-links and other attachments, weight horns for storage, as well as providing more stability for the rack itself. Additionally, one may opt for the lat pull-down attachments for added exercise variety, or a landmine for additional back and shoulder movements. The best part is that these attachments are relatively less expensive than most others on the market and are of excellent quality.

If you have limited space or would rather not deal with a full power rack, the PPR500 is an excellent option considering its durability, warranty, and optional add-ons.
