Description
The REP PR-5000 Half Rack offers the same commercial-grade quality and modular compatibility as the Power Rack, in a more compact, open-front design—ideal for those seeking a space-efficient training setup. Built from 75x75mm 11-gauge steel, it also supports a rackable weight capacity of 453.5 kg (1,000 lbs). Featuring 2-inch hole spacing, 1-inch pinholes, and laser-cut numbering, it allows for highly accurate attachment placement and quick adjustments. Storage is streamlined with six 15cm top weight horns for smaller plates and four 30cm horns at knee level for heavier ones.
Included are Lowered J-Cups 2.0 with recessed linings to protect equipment and optimize bar placement. The 59.5cm gusseted front spotter arms provide strong external safety support, featuring raised lips to prevent barbell roll-off. Additionally, a 66.3cm front foot extension stabilizes the rack when training outside the uprights. Precision manufacturing techniques such as laser cutting, robotic welding, and premium powder coating ensure this rack stands out as a centerpiece in any home gym.
The Ares 2.0 is a high-performance functional trainer and lat pulldown/low row attachment system, designed to integrate seamlessly with the PR-5000 rack. Developed from customer feedback and REP’s innovation-driven approach, the Ares 2.0 combines versatility, efficiency, and commercial-grade quality into one compact solution. At its core are dual 118 kg (260 lb) selectorized weight stacks, supporting both unilateral and bilateral training. A 2:1 cable ratio (e.g., 100 kg load = 50 kg resistance) offers precise resistance adjustments, ideal for functional and accessory training.
This system is outfitted with swivel pulleys at each front upright, typically found in high-end commercial equipment, allowing a greater range of motion and smoother movement. The pulleys have been repositioned to the outer edges of the trolley to improve ergonomics, while the cables are routed from below, enabling the trolleys to rest at the base and clear space on the uprights for other attachments. Each trolley includes a smooth plastic liner for fast and easy adjustment. Upgraded cables with a thinner coating deliver a smoother, more refined user experience, while hot-rolled steel weight plates with a machined finish ensure long-term durability and performance. The independent stacks allow two athletes to train simultaneously or one athlete to use both stacks in a variety of exercises.
The Ares 2.0 also features an integrated lat pulldown and low row station, complete with an improved footplate design that provides enhanced comfort and better starting angles. The weight stacks are rotated 90 degrees and set farther back within the rack frame, creating additional space inside for benching and specialty barbell work.
