KS-1 Kids Squat Stand

The Rogue KS-1 Kids Squat Stand is one of the first of its kind in the industry—a durable, American-made weight training station that adapts the features of a standard Rogue stand into the ultimate compact beginner’s unit. Whereas most children’s weight training gear amounts to glorified toys, the KS-1 is a genuine piece of Rogue equipment. The 48.625" tall unit measures 28" between the uprights, making it uniquely compatible with beginner barbells like the Rogue T-2.5KG Tech Bar. If you want to introduce a child athlete to the look and feel of training on an actual competition-level rack or squat stand, this is the ideal system..

What is a Squat Stand?

What a squat stand is

A squat stand is a two-post, free-standing rack for squats and presses — most of a power rack’s capability in a smaller, cheaper, movable package. Uprights are joined by a pull-up crossmember for stability. Monster Lite (3x3) stands are the premium tier; 2x3 stands cost less and still handle most home training. Note that a squat stand’s safeties are shorter than a full cage’s, so many lifters pair one with spotter arms for heavy solo work.
