bro the "I could see myself as a high schooler going into a dicks sporting goods, seeing a Nike squat rack, and saying 'yeah, I don't want that one I want a Rogue one'" killed me lol
"Nike, just don't do it." Gotta love the honesty there Coop. I was thinking it wasn't worth it either. I don't care who makes a rack as long as it's sturdy, affordable and allows for some customization.
You could also just buy some Nike stickers and put them all over your gym if you like the aesthetic of the brand logos that much. It’s pretty simple for me. If you live in America and are gonna spend rogue prices you buy rogue. That’s it. You go elsewhere only to save money or support local businesses.
This thing should be max like $650. I haven't seen stickers or 5/8 without westside spacing in a while.
My Titan T3 even has Westside spacing and it was like half the cost.
Hey man, love your videos! I just ordered the Better Body Equipped power rack, any shot you can make a review on that!
Been waiting for this one!
4 Post hydra rack with same specs will cost several hundred less here in Canada if picked up and be a better rack!
Just found your channel a while ago. I like your reviews and interviews. I would like to get your opinion on the Amazon Mikolo 3x3 power rack.
Speaking of attachments, I would love to see a breakdown of maximum advantage grip attachments and a comparison to some of the prominent knockoffs
This is why I watch this channel, truly independent and willing to say the tough truth.
Risking having Nike not sending them free product, and they don’t care.
“Just Don’t Do It”
Love it.
Why are we praising thie channel for the 'tough 'truth'? EVERYBODY can see this rack is overpriced... and what a risk to take.. "Nike not sending them free products".. WOW.. such risktakers.. :D
TLDR: Wish gym equipment with branding.
I'm never considering nike anything for the rest of my life. Well said
How is that the takeaway? WIsh equipment doesn't use robotic welding and laser cutting. It's more like a runway fashion version of strength equipment. All look less functional.
Any Body Solid equipment reviews? Great vid :)
Body Solid doesn't hand out equipment for free to RUclips reviewers so it's not likely to happen.
Can you please review stretching equipment? Once saw this amazing hamstring/hip flexor machine from five (German company) and never seen stuff like that on RUclips.
What brand / type of wireless mics do you use for your filming? Thanks in advance.
its crazy how much people pay for branding
It's called the eleiko syndrome. A eleiko hoodie is the price of a regular barbell.
People being easily influenced by consumerist business tactics. Sad.
I would just buy Nike stickers and put them on a titan or rogue rack if I liked the swoosh that much.not sure why you would spend rogue money and not get rogue though.
U should review on bullbar 2.0 looks like a good idea foldable pull-up bar.
The only advantage I can see is the fact that you could buy this in the store if that matters to you. Outside of that there is zero innovation, just the same old thing that has been done by several other companies. The squat rack market is pretty darn saturated right now.
That's good for the consumer. It should stabilize prices, at least in theory.
Gotta appreciate that coop gives honest reviews! Thanks!
Regarding the shipping. I have the bolt together version of the rogue r3. I don’t remember how much shipping was but it came on a double length pallet and I had to be there to accept delivery. It’s still a lot of long heavy components even if it isn’t welded together. So it’s not like they ship every upright in a separate box via ground. And if they did it would probably be more expensive to do that vs freight. So yeah, not sure what people are expecting when it comes to shipping gym equipment this large. It’s not gonna be cheap.
What are those glow sticks you have in your background?
Good day sir , is there any probability your gonna do a maxum sx2 functional machine a review ? I’m very interested into it but can’t seem to find any genuine review on it. I’m watching every video u make and your awesome !
It’s probably worth noting that “Nike Strength” is not Nike. It’s a company that has licensed the Nike brand to use on strength training equipment.
You're kidding yourself if you think Nike just licensed their name... while it's a seperate, corporate, entitiy, they are clearly an active part of this new organization. It is Nike.
Reebok/Adidas licensed it out to some white label UK company where clearly no one had ever squatted under a barbell.
@@mrkang4080 You are uninformed. I have intimate knowledge of the setup.
@@mrkang4080they get a very high percentage off their profits
Not doubting your info but wondering if you can expand on how they’re doing the shoe scrap plates if they’re just licensing the Nike brand?
HI COOP CAN YOU REAVIEW THE CAR JACK DEAD.LIFT ATTACHMENT from FORTISEQUIPMENT ?
Rather, get the titan because that extra money I can get the monolift or a nice set of spotter arms. Or some sort of attachment. They lost me at no westside spacing
They lost me at 'Nike'
We need an updated best rack video looking at all racks and prices etc
Coop if I get a titan rack will a rep Athena be compatible with it ?
Hopefully they deliver to Hawaii, still waiting for rep fitness deliver to Hawaii. Can only hope
With the amount of companies doing a lot with their racks, Nike is relaying on a Nike swoosh rather making a great product. You can also have someone print a Nike logo
Is the 1100lb rating with or without the sticker?
Don't know where to ask, however, maybe here on your latest video is the best place. Do you have any advice for underground garages? I'm worried about ventilation and carbon monoxide in a potential gym. The garage is underneath the apartment complex, and although each unit is it's own closed off thing, I'm not sure how to go about testing if it's safe to be working out in there, nor what measures I can take to potentially keep the air fresh
If it helps, I'll likely be sectioning off the workout area in it's own room. It'll be pretty small, the garage is single width, but can just about fit two large cars length wise, with enough room for a rack and another bigger piece next to it. The plan is to have one big, or two small cars, and section off the area with a large storage unit and a door. My family makes furniture, and we;ll likely make a cabinet that's as high as the ceiling.
It's been hard researching how well ventilated underground garages are, and it's a shame I may have to give up on doing it if it turns out to be too much to manage, especially after budgeting out most of the stuff
i bought a used rogue ml on fb and looks new/all hardware for $450. of i had to do it again though i would just buy the mini monster lite because all i need is something to hold my spotter arms and bands
I appreciate your honest review. Your review lines up with facts/specs
Forget the rack I need one of those Eleiko jumpers
absolutely sick sweatshirt
you should review a multi gym
If I'm going to buy a rack or barbell made in China, it's not going to be something that costs basically the same as a USA-made product.
I would never fall victim to branding *buys newest Chinese made iPhone with 400$ specs for 1 grand*
How much do Nike stickers cost on a Titan rack?
Review the Stray Dog Goat please.
Make a stencil of a Nike logo and then add your own "Swoosh" if such things are important to you.
People who buy this to make a statement about themselves, really are making a statement about themselves - and it's not a positive statement. 🤪
Does it make you take a knee?
Beat me to it
Honestly, when I looked closer at them, they just look like rebranded rogue monster lite racks... but imported. There is a couple of differences... but not much.
Coooop. Swooooosh sticker is always worth hundreds more. ❤
😂😂😂
They might be able to buy some market share in school and CrossFit settings, but I really don’t see them making a mark in the home gym community. They’re years behind in innovation and are charging a premium for inferior product. They would be better off just buying an existing fitness company like Rep or Titan (which they’re plenty big enough to do) and rebranding their existing product line.
They can’t do that because those companies are successful for being cheaper than rogue. Nike would have to jack the price up and they aren’t gonna beat rogue in that game. They are too far ahead as the made in USA top dog. Nike has to innovate. Not rebrand something rogue did decades ago.
Nike's been living off their name fer years
This is for the guy who wears a fashion brand wristwatch.
I thought the thumbnail said “Mike made a squat rack”, and I was thinking who the fuck is Mike?!? lol
I am
Aw sheesh. Glad I watched this, looks like ill be buying a different rack and a pack of nike stickers
More holes are “better “ Coop , better 🤣
I paid less for a Titan T-3 setup that includes 81 inch uprights and is 6 posts not 4. What a rip off though what else would you expect from NIKE.
1000% Nike's playbook... Make what everyone else is making n add 20% to the price
I think these are partially meant to replace all the gear at Nike sponsored schools and facilities.
Right and their athletes. It's cheaper to send them things they make or buy in bulk and then the athletes are always using merchandise. If I'm not mistaken there are a lot of basketball players that are sponsored by Nike.
Riddle me this??? What do you get when you add Apple/Samsung A.I. fitness tracker and a Bluetooth WT002-Smart Training Weight Stack Pin to a fuctional trainer ???? Nike's bulls eye into the future
If you bought it at Dicks with a discount it wouldn’t be bad. It would be something you could see in person and take it home.
But still no westside spacing. That's a deal breaker. For bench that spacing is awesome
Just bought an Ethos (Dicks house brand) rack fer 600 on sale. Same size, 1" holes, a multi grip pull up bar, spotter arms... Tell me again y I'd but this "budget" rack at baller prices
@fleamcbaggins3087 I have the same rack. All the attachments I have for it are rogue and titan series. The little holes at the very bottom and on the top. on the cross members I drilled out to 1" holes. I have 1" aluminum band pegs. From rogue. I also have it bolted down. I'm a 405 squatter, and it doesn't move when racking. Great rack for the price. It will last forever
Let me guess, these Nike products were made in Nantong, Jiangsu Province, China.
Usually they stay away from performance enhanced sports. Especially after Lance Armstrong.
Any chance you can review sunny health fitness? Seems like they are budget friendly but you seem to know if it's good quality or not.
I tried buying a Sunny squat rack when I was first building my home gym because it was small enough to fit in my garage. When it arrived, parts were bent in a way that prevented me from assembling it. I tried unbending them and it almost snapped in two. I returned it and bought from Rogue instead. Only going with legit manufacturers from now on.
@samwillis1479 oh! Well, that doesn't sound good. I guess when it comes to stuff like this it better to just bite the bullet and invest in better equipment then? I think that makes sense
That little swoosh is the most expensive part of the rack.
Note worthy, this is marketed as a Nike Killer. 😮😮
Instead of making a squat rack, etc., how about they make some lifting shoes that fit wide feet?
I'll take my major lutie power rack that i paid $770 for out the door. A functional trainer and accessories. And before you all crap on me for not getting a rep or been a great rack.
Robust! Nike Pasta, Mama Mia!
I feel like gyms/health clubs are more the target audience for nike strength than home gym-ers. Easy way for gyms to feel more upmarket to spend a few hundred dollars extra on Nike equipment, and they can make that money back on selling more memberships to people who think "oooh I know that logo, must be expensive"
A commercial gym would be more upmarket if it had Rogue, Sorinex or even more so if they had ELITEFTS.
@@albertfischer8804 A real "gym gym" sure but I think there are a lot of "lifestyle gyms" you got your personal trainer, everything looks fancy, a wide selection of smoothies, not too much sweat. That's the kind of gym that fits this rack.
@@albertfischer8804 yes but the bulk of people shopping for gyms aren't going to know that.
Yep, deffo a tiktokkers brand. Wonder how many swooshes were gonna c in Joey Swoll vids 😂😂😂
Whether or not this is actually third party licensing and not N¡ke is irrelevant. If it gets more people to use barbells and get stronger than so be it, Swoosh and all.
Can someone put me on to a flat footed rack plz
$950 is crazy. Before he said the price I’d be OK paying 5-650 ish.
Tbh i thought since that swoosh is on there it was gonna b more like 12-13 hundo. Nike's been living off their name fer years
So if you're gonna spend the money just go rogue... Gotcha
Naughty Nikee
I’ll bet the Nike strength equipment exists to sell to all the university’s that are big time sponsored by Nike.
The fact that it has a swoosh and made by Nike is the main reason I wouldn't want it. I much prefer to spend money with companies that focus all their efforts in the gym equipment industry, even those that have their products made in China, like Titan and REP.
I wouldn't buy Nike because u hardly get what u pay fer. Nike's been living off their name fer years. Its firmly in their playbook to charge 20% more than their competitors when they've been making average stuff fer a long while now. This rack is just another example of their arrogance
Buy a decent rack, throw some Nike stickers on it. Now you got a Nike rack lol
Please always be honest.
What is your real progress?

5/8 holes but no Westside spacing? Pretty stupid. The only reason to use 5/8 holes is so you can have Westside spacing.
The Nike Swoosh on the crosssbar should be orange 🤷🏻♂️
At least most of you have the option to get this if you really wanted it. Nike Strength is just another company along with several others that do not ship to me.
where are you located?
I’m located in Hawaii.
@@123.MikeCheck I see...I thought you might be here somewhere here in Europe and was about to recommend the german(chinese made) ATX brand, but that wont help you then🤷🤷 sorry..
Buy a Titan rack and a big Nike sticker, boom saved yourself $300.
Anything with the Nike logo is overpriced. Though if you are shopping Dick’s Sporting Goods, this is a better rack than the DSG brand racks.
Thank you Coop for this review. I’m glad you aren’t scared to speak your mind. This rack is crap.
I don't why, but i don't like the NIKE equipment. Much prefer Rogue, REP and BoS.
Welding looks pretty substandard. Made in China I’m assuming too, like everything sold by Nike. Paying through the nose for a budget product just because of the branding. I’ll pass 😂 Nike massively mugging off consumers.
Yuck. For the Nike prices much rather go with Rogue. Absolutely nothing better about this. Nike getting desperate.
"My honest opinion of the Nike rack"...
Said while wearing an Eleiko sweater. I think we know where this is going.
Nike should stick with apparel
This the same rack I have in my home just without the Nike branding. Paid $100 in FB marketplace
Nike was late to the party by literal years. Using their name to assume people who dont know anything about home weightlifting would buy it but ignoring how over saturated the market is and one of the main competitors literally took a page out of Nike's book with running and started competitions based around CrossFit. Its over priced, not well-supported and underwhelming. Rogue and at least a dozen others make this move sad for Nike.
Looks cheap and not that great looking..ehh Rather go with Rep or Titan.
Couldn't they just use the same child labor used for their shoes to reduce costs and offer it at a better price?
Enough with the Nike content. Complete garbage
I just think that moustache looks very soft.
I like NIKE, not for workout equipment. It’s corny.
Absolutely overpriced 😂 However, I applaud their effort to enter into this arena.
It's no fitness reality rackv
oh look Marketing and name at the expense of actual functionality and value. Oh look it's Nike. again. shock.
No more nike please. USA USA USA or just quality.
Eleiko heavy mug heavy mug heavy mug. How about a usa heavy mug
Meh!
Don’t do it.
I am still boycotting all things Nike for their anti-police, anti-military shenanigans
Ur small
Woke company. Never buy
Their racks are trans
They lost me at no westside spacing
REP is so far ahead with racks/designs... better cable options than rogue and titan, and better priced than rogue. Nike is only talked about because they sell a lot of shoes. Their fitness equipment is bad.
