Hello Jason missed your post... yup the power rack is super expensive.

Its price per plate, the guys at the shop just work there, cant give more discounts.

Maybe if purchased directly from Transmark the pricing will be better. Doesn't hurt to try, saving up for the power rack and bench.

Don't have to buy all at one go.

Purchase fewer items to get started and add on as needs progress.

Fitness concept is having a sale right now, check out the benches on sale

Hello VoodooEx thanks sharing.

Appreciate some information on the power rack. Cost, model and where it was purchased.

I'm still searching in the market for a quality rack.
