SM-2 Monster Squat Stand 2.0

Bridging the gap between traditional squat stands and power racks, the fully redesigned Rogue Monster Squat Stand 2.0 features over-sized 3x3" 11 gauge steel uprights, 1” hardware, and a bolt-together base with triangle plates for maximum stability. Each 93" upright of our SM-2 model also now includes a keyhole design down the side (for greater flexibility with a wider array of new attachments), along with a new Satin Black powder coat finish and dome tag branding for a bolder look. The unit’s base, triangle plates, and crossmembers feature the Satin Black powder coat finish, as well.

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.
