Overview
A squat stand is a pair of independent or bridged uprights that hold the barbell for squats and presses without the bulk of a cage. It is the most space-efficient way to train the barbell at home.
Sizing & placement
At only 24 inches deep it is the shallowest rack here, with a 48-inch width and an 84-inch height that calls for a 7-foot ceiling. Keep the 36 inches of front clearance open so you can walk the bar out to squat.
Where it works
Compact garage gyms and home gyms; minimalist barbell setups.

Frequently asked questions
- How deep is a squat stand?
- Just 24 inches, making it the shallowest rack option for tight spaces.
