Frequently asked questions

How does the home gym space work?

It converts stations or machines into a planning class using a published rule. Allow about 35 square feet per station and extra area for a squat rack. The headline is a class such as Corner, One Car, Two Car, and Rack, not a vendor ranking.

Is REP Fitness Athena bench better than Titan T-3 Series Power Rack?

This page does not rank REP Fitness Athena bench, Titan T-3 Series Power Rack, and Rogue SML-2 Squat Stand. REP Fitness Athena bench and Titan T-3 Series Power Rack are listed because they are real products with official pages that map to different or overlapping classes. The useful question is which class matches your inputs.
