Level up your Gym with Competitors Outlet's wide selection of Bench Press Racks & Stands

Release your inner Competitor's Outlet each and every training session with the right equipment. Whether at the gym or at home, the bench press racks or squat stands are an essential start to a strength-building routine. 

Combine your favorite Olympic-sized barbell and transform your home workout to elite status. Tiered J-Hooks allow lifters to customize the height and are perfect for overhead pressing, bench pressing, back squats, front squats, rack pulls, and deadlifts. 

Bench presses are an ideal workout for developing the shoulders, arms, and chest. Competitors Outlet has a wide variety of Traditional, Incline, and Decline Bench Press Racks and Squat Stands.

Each bench press variation works for slightly different muscle groups with variations that include:

  • Traditional bench press. This exercise is done lying down on a flat bench and pressing a barbell up and down at chest height. It works the pectoral muscles, shoulders, and arms.
  • Incline bench press. For this variation, the bench should be angled upward between 45 and 60 degrees, so you are leaning back slightly. It targets muscles of the upper chest and shoulders.
  • Decline bench press. For this variation, the bench should be angled downward, so when you lie down your feet are in a higher position than your head. It works the lower chest muscles and shoulders.
  • Narrow grip bench press. During this variation, your hands are narrower together on the barbell. It works the triceps and forearms.

Use a spotter if you're new to bench pressing or bar weight squatting. They may keep an eye on your form and make sure you're lifting the right amount of weight for your level of fitness level.
