Exercises you can do with the bar rest supports

CS-1 Bar Rest Supports: the foundation of safe training

The bar rest supports are part of our range of accessories for CS-1 racks and squat cages. They are one of the first accessories to install on your rack, before you even think about comfort options.

Why choose the CS-1 bar rest supports?

On a power rack, safeties are not optional: they are what lets you push your limits without risk. Without them, you cannot attempt a squat PR or train to failure on the bench press when you are alone.

Our supports go beyond the basic safety function. Their flat, sturdy surface lets you do rack pulls, pin squats or presses from the pins. The laser-numbered holes guarantee identical positioning every session, essential for tracking your progress on the CS-1 Power Rack.

Result: you turn your cage into a professional training environment, where every set can be taken to failure safely.

A work area outside the cage

Mounted on the front uprights, the supports extend your rack by about 70 cm. You gain a work area outside the cage for the bench press, the squat or bench movements.

Safety tip

Use the bar rest supports on a rack that is bolted to the floor, or fitted with front feet or a CS-1 rear stabilizer, to prevent any tipping under load.

How many adjustment positions are there?

10 positions per support, laser-numbered from 1 to 10.

Does the rack need to be bolted to the floor?

It is recommended, or else use front feet or a stabilizer, because the load is applied in front of the uprights, beyond their footprint.
