They are so much easier to move around and they have UHMW on top to save the knurl. Rather than having to mess around with elevating the bench, you might want to get the spotter arms. Maybe it is better to chop off the bottom rather than the top. The safeties for squatting and the J-cup setting for bench are within the 1" hole spacing. I prop the bench on 2 pieces of leftover butcher block countertop. The 1" hole spacing starts just above where I need it for the pin-pipe safeties on the bench. I have the Titan 82" power rack (purchased in 9/2017) and I have a 16" tall Adidas flat bench. I would guess that the vast majority of lifters would have both safeties and J-hooks in the one inch section on all Titan racks these days, possibly even with a setup like Wilhelm's with the platform top higher than the rack feet.ĭid some video-sleuthing, and based on this post's video, a small female lifter (our very own would be just into the bottom of the one inch spacing with pin-pipe safties (might be different for a swing-in type, I think the bottom might have a pin (though possibly not needed) so you could only do a two inch increment for it to line up if it is out of the one inch section). That's with a Rep Fitness AB-3100 bench, which is 17.5" high. My small chest and (I think) average to below-average arm length (or effective length when lying down, I had some trouble getting bar out of the top hooks on a Hammer Strength fixed bench without having to protract shoulders a bit - bad for tightness) has the safeties into the one inch section, and J-hooks just above the half-way point of the one inch section. when did you get the shorty one, you've had it for quite a while now right? I believe they fixed which end they were chopping for the shorty version (might have even seen a thread back in Egypt about them having fixed it, but not sure), based on what I have. The hole spacing is the same on these which were ordered in August. Hold the phone!! I just checked my setup which is a full height rack, plus the shorty T-6 extension, so a pair of short uprights.
