rock-solid stability team up with a chalky fist bump of swoleship.

This power rack is to home gyms, what maple syrup is to Canada: world-renowned, and the sign of impeccable taste. *chef’s kiss*

Benefits of the Hydra 3 x 3 Inch Flat Foot Power Rack

  • STABLE FLAT-FOOT STYLE
    The 4 post Flat Foot power rack is the granddaddy of all rack configurations. If you want your rack to outlast heavy squats, handle big bench presses and withstand a set of chin-ups with 8 kids latching onto your waist, then this is the rack to get. This bad boy weighs a hefty +250 pounds and unlike the 4 Post With No Feet, its design is ultra-stable — so you don’t have to bolt it down before trying for that new chin-up PR. Oh, and did we mention you’ll fit in with the cool crowd with this rack? *wink wink*
  • COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER BRANDS
    If you’re a die-hard fan of the metric system, then listen up: the uprights of our Hydra racks measure true 3″ x 3″ which is EXACTLY 76.2mm x 76.2mm, instead of the typical 75mm x 75mm uprights of other brands’ imported racks. By matching the same tubing specs as many of our American competitors who make their racks on US soil *respectfully tips hat*, you can mix and match attachments freely without needing to stick to one brand — hello, open ecosystem! Just be sure to research thoroughly BEFORE you begin the mingling shenanigans, deal?
  • MODULAR DESIGN
    QUICK! Name three things in life you can’t live without. I’ll go first — pockets, sliced bread, and… a customizable power rack 😎 Choose a pre-made design like you see here or build your own piece-by-piece. You can always add separate components later when you’re ready to expand your unit with weight plate storage, or divide and conquer by splitting your rack into two collegiate-style racks for double the fun. As you can see, we put a lot of thought into this… our mom would be SO proud.

Hefty 11-Gauge Steel

Hefty 11-Gauge Steel

Built with 11-gauge steel, this bad boy can handle the weight capacity needs of world-class lifters. You get even more stability than our Light Commercial Rack which means less shaking when racking your bar or while using attachments. Even if it’s not bolted down, you’ll feel that true #heavyweight status.

Laser Cut Numbers

Laser Cut Numbers

Trying to line up your j-cups perfectly can be a pain in the you-know-what. And unlike many of our competitors, we have lasered numbers every 1-2 holes to make adjustments a breeze. So you can easily change your j-cup height after your widow-maker squat set… because counting is HARD WORK when you can barely breathe.

1" Spacing in Bench Zone

1" Spacing in Bench Zone

Ready to settle for 2″ hole spacing throughout? Pffft, not a chance. You are an efficient and optimized MACHINE, that’s why we went with extra precise 1″ hole spacing to make unracking a heavy bar a little easier. After all, every morsel of energy matters when going for that 1lb PR (fractional plates, you da real MVP).

No floor bolts required

Flat foot racks have the distinct advantage of not having to anchor to the floor, simply attach the flat foot and voila, you are ready to set PR’s.

Our flat foot supports come in 56″ and 62″ lengths, with an optional 43″ flat foot crossmember to connect them for added stability.

Post-Assembly Review

Overall, this is a fantastic and very high-quality build. Great value and is extremely customizable. For those looking for a commercial quality rack, I highly reccomend this one for the price (rouge quality with a much lower price). While there are a lot of great racks on the market, I'd say this stands out due to its versatility, including the many attachments available from BoS. I have a few already and will likely buy more. Would definitely purchase again.

Hydra free standing power rack

I ordered the hydra free standing power rack to replace my Rogue SML-2C rack. I am a long time Rogue customer and thought of giving BOS a try after seeing a review on Garage Gym Reviews. The quality of the rack is outstanding. There were no burrs, assembly was straight forward, all holes aligned perfectly, powder coating was perfect and was surprised how stable the rack was without it bolted down. The accessories fit perfect (J-cups, safety straps etc) . Overall I'm very happy with the purchase. However, I gave it a four star review for the following reasons: First, ordering was confusing as BOS has both US and Canadian websites. If you order from the Canadian site (which I did first) it will not allow you to select the US as a shipping destination, you have to go to the US site to order. It would have been nice to have the website automatically redirect you. Second, after waiting for a few days I didn't get any info about the shipping of my order. I tried to call customer service by phone and kept getting stuck in an automated loop. I then sent an email inquiring about my order and they responded in the next day and my order went out shortly thereafter. Third, I received an extra 3x2 cross member that did not fit the power rack and I deduced it was in case I wanted to set it up like a squat stand. I also got a lot of extra hardware. I would have liked to exclude this and had a cheaper price. I guess it wasn't clear on the ordering because you have to order everything a la carte. Finally, I purchased the roller J-cups. They have a standard white nylon cylindrical roller, it would have been better to get it in black or SS and have it tapered like the Ghost J-cups. Overall this is a great rack and I'm very happy with it, but for 5 stars I expect a flawless customer experience.
