Garage Gym Power Rack 2.0 - 2X Series
Built to Grow With Your Training
The Giant Lifting Garage Gym Power Rack 2.0 (GGPR 2.0) is our most refined and popular rack built for home gym athletes who want dependable performance without overpaying for unnecessary extras. Designed from real customer feedback and years of garage gym testing, the GGPR 2.0 delivers the perfect balance of safety, stability, and value.
Built from heavy-duty 2" x 2" steel tubing with a 700 lb static weight capacity, this rack is engineered to handle serious training sessions while maintaining a compact footprint ideal for home and garage gyms. Reinforced top gussets and extended pipe safeties provide added rigidity and confidence under heavy loads, so you can train hard knowing your setup is built to last.
We designed the GGPR 2.0 to include the features that actually matter—without inflating the price tag. From laser-cut numbered uprights to protected J-cups and integrated plate storage, every detail was created to improve your lifting experience from day one.
What Sets It Apart?
The GGPR 2.0 was built for lifters who care about functionality, safety, and long-term durability.
Unlike entry-level racks that cut corners, the GGPR 2.0 includes reinforced gussets at the top of each upright to increase rack stability and reduce movement during heavy lifts and pull-ups. The extended pipe safeties provide reliable protection inside the rack while giving you more usable lifting space during squats, presses, and bench work.
Laser-cut numbering on the uprights allows for quick and repeatable adjustments, helping you dial in the perfect J-cup and safety positions every session.
To protect your equipment, we included upgraded three-pad J-cups that help preserve your barbell knurling and reduce unnecessary wear over time.
And because organization matters in a garage gym, the built-in chrome weight storage pegs keep your plates off the floor while adding extra stability to the rack itself.
Out of the Box, Your GGPR 2.0 Includes:
- Heavy-duty 2" x 2" steel power rack frame
- 700 lb static weight capacity
- Extended pipe safeties
- Reinforced upper gussets for added rigidity
- Pair of three-pad protected J-cups
- Laser-cut numbered uprights

Key Features
Frame & Construction
The GGPR 2.0 is built from durable 2" x 2" steel tubing designed to withstand years of heavy training. With reinforced gussets and a stable base design, this rack delivers the rigidity and confidence serious lifters expect from their setup.
Whether you're squatting heavy, bench pressing, or performing pull-ups, the GGPR 2.0 stays solid where it matters most.
J-Cups
Your barbell deserves protection too.
That’s why we equipped the GGPR 2.0 with upgraded three-pad protected J-cups designed to minimize wear on your barbell’s knurling and finish. The added protection helps reduce metal-on-metal contact while keeping reracks smooth and secure.
Pipe Safeties
Safety is one of the most important parts of any power rack setup.
The extended pipe safeties on the GGPR 2.0 provide dependable protection during failed lifts while giving you plenty of usable training space inside the rack. They’re built tough, easy to adjust, and ready for heavy sessions.
Numbered Uprights
Quick adjustments make a big difference during training.
Each upright features laser-cut numbering every two holes, allowing you to easily line up your J-cups and safeties with precision. No more guessing or uneven setups between workouts.
Weight Storage Pegs
A cleaner gym is a better gym.
The integrated chrome weight storage pegs help organize your plates while also increasing overall rack stability during pull-ups and heavy lifts. Functional storage without taking up additional floor space.

We bought the pro rack 2.0 for our garage gym and we love it. Pretty easy to put together (just make sure you pay attention that you’re putting the pull up bar the correct direction).
The price point was the reason we purchased it and I can’t imagine needing to spend a ton more for a basic power rack.
Also love supporting a local WA brand.
Love the garage setup!!! I purchased the garage gym power rack 2.0 plus weights and barbell. This has been a long time coming and am more than happy with the equipment. On top of that, customer service was amazing. I purchased the day before the memorial sale and asked the staff if they could still honor the sale on my purchase. They were very willing and refunded the amount on all sale items. Based on that, I will be going to Giant for all my gym needs.

This rack is super sturdy and overall incredible for the price. I assembled it myself no problem. When comparing 2x2 racks like this, there are a couple things that stand out on the Giant: The laser cut hole numbering, and holes on the sides of the uprights for accessories. You won't get those on the Titan or Rep racks. Also shout out to the included j-cups which are excellent quality. I added a couple Giant weight pegs and used my cheap backup plates to weigh down the rack. The barbell storage tubes I put on the back of the rack are from Titan. I use a Rep AB4100 bench and Bells of Steel shorty barbell, you can see in the pictures how all that fits really well with plenty of room to maneuver.
The only thing that's kind of a head scratcher is that only one of the front uprights has holes all the way to the bottom. At first I thought for sure this was a mistake and I got an incorrect part, but no, it's shown that way in the assembly instructions. Why not have all those lower holes on both uprights? Beats me, maybe it's a cost thing. Also pin/pipe safeties are expected at this price point, but they suck. I have some Titan spotter arms coming to replace them since Giant doesn't offer spotters, flip downs, straps or anything else.
Lastly, this won't apply to everyone, but I picked up my rack from the Giant showroom in Phoenix. Super easy process and saved a bunch of money on shipping. If you have the option, go pick it up. I also got their amazing Northland bar, and saving so much on shipping is awesome.
I’ve been watching this rack for awhile and got an email that it was on sale, so I bit the bullet. The assembly wasn’t bad and I had it together about an hour and a half later. I’ve been using it for a few weeks and I’m very happy I bought it. It’s sturdy and once you add weight, it barely moves during pull ups. Now I just have to rearrange my garage to fit everything…
So solid! So beautiful! So perfect in every way! I LOVE it!
It's a good rack especially for the price and they have a decent amount of attachments
For a very reasonable price I got a great rack and row/lat pull attachment. It was easy to put together and has been great to use.
The power rack was simple to install. Took about two hours. Very sturdy and functional.
We also purchased the extension with the pulee. That one took another 30 minutes to install.
All in all I give this Power rack a 10 out of 10. The only thing that’s better than his power rack is the customer service by Jordan in Arizona. Thank you so much for helping us design our home gym.
Wish I would have bought this sooner!!! Worth the money!!!
Very practical for the space I have. Not heavy duty but neither am I. I will never overload this since it has a 700 pound rating. I also bought the lat pulldown / row attachment. It’s smooth. It was pretty easy to assemble and all the parts were there. Very happy with it. I may have to add hooks to hang barbell clamps from.
I definitely recommend stacking weights on the floor pegs since this does need a little stability. Since I recently transitioned to bumper plates, my old steel plates work fine.
This thing right here has made getting a workout in easier than ever!! Perfecting your form at home and avoiding the 5pm gym crowd has eased my anxiety, plus being a girl in the gym… need I say more?
GET IT!!
Saw that the Garage Gym Power Rack was on sale so I decided to buy it along with the lat attachment. This is my second purchase after getting an adjustable bench from GIANT. We’ve enjoyed the equipment so far and are looking forward to future add-ons for our garage gym setup.
I bought this rack after shopping around and being really discouraged at the prices of other racks. I got this assembled in less than two hours and it is awesome! I love the plate holders on the back and the pull-up bar, this rack is such a great value!
Perfect, great quality and easy to set up.
Amazing deal and awesome quality. So psyched to have my own power rack for my garage gym. Everything went together well and it looks really good with a nice black powder coating on the metal. Seems like an awesome company and I love to support locally owned PNW businesses. Will definitely order some more gear or accessories soon or when in stock. Great customer service getting back to me and updating me as well about the order.
Great product and excellent customer service!
I was shopping around for gym equipment locally here in Washington after covid hit and gyms shut down. I didn't have much luck untill someone recommended giant fitness. I am far from being the world's next strong man champ but the guys working at this wearhouse were so helpful and polite (never felt judged like some other places I went). They even called me back when they noticed a missed call (I didn't even leave a message). Good service is very rare these days and I had nothing short of a great experience buying my equipment from them. All the equipment I purchased functions perfectly for me and the prices were the best around by far. Someday I'll be buffest dude on the block thanks to this place.
This power rack was perfect for our home gym setup. Not only is it versatile with the compatible attachments, but you won’t beat the quality at this price point. Highly satisfied with the purchase.
Quality equipment and well packaged for shipping.. easy to assemble
couldn’t be happier with my power rack! Fantastic equipment and quality for a great price! Highly recommend
The products and selection are great! Customer service is excellent!
A few reasons I love my new power rack - 1) I picked it up in Pheonix next day, 2) I assembled it myself in less than 2 hours, and 3) it’s made with high quality materials - 100% worth the price that I paid!!!
I love the Giant Lifting family - I’ve got a barbell, bumper plates, a plyo box, a jump rope, and now the power rack - you guys continue to produce awesome stuff!
Couldn’t be happier with the quality/price. Does exactly what I need it to without breaking the bank. Definitely recommend.
