Do you think it would fit an XL REI sleeping pad inside the rack? Because that’s where my Wife would make me sleep if I even thought about doing this? 😂🤣
If I wasn't married I'd definitely be happy living in a garage with just my tools and squat rack. I'd be retired by now and just train every day. The rest of the house is for the women, just give me a nice garage space and a Coop Squat and I'd be set for life
Love to see it! Crazy build, thought out, loads of storage! The Supercar of racks. But what would you do for the 'honda civic' of rack/functional trainers. Would love to see a small space high quality custom rack like this. Maybe 16" 4 post with wall mounted to save on that 6th post but still provide stability over floor supported half racks, having a lat pull/functional trainer attachment would be key, Would you go with stacks vs plate loaded. Maybe safety arms for space saving when not needed vs having a full in rack safety. Would be interesting to see what you would come up with!
Most times people say they have a "home gym" they mean a Squat stand and a flat bench in the corner of a dark wooden shed. When This guy says home gym, he means it, holy mother of God that's insane.
I’m a wife and the handy one in the family so I’m planning out, purchasing, assembling and installing everything for our home gym. Love seeing these vids as they are great source of inspo and info. Plus Coop you are a very silly dude and I love it. Now I have to find space for a Handheld Dynamic Weight Storage Rack..
Sweet! I made a similar style rack and it's funny, I've used a lot of the same attachments (adjustable pullup handles so I could also mount the UPS, bench prop, etc). I removed the rhino handles and placed the bench prop crossmember in their place so I can use the Mutant Metals handles for weighted dips. I didn't think to place the rhino/jammer handles overhead for weighted pullups though, I will try that out. Some other attachments that are useful with the rhino rack: hip thrust bench, the new monster roller pad, squat wedges, front squat harness, Ironmaster super bench pro (it can slide under the platform), leg rollers, and utility bench.
I’ve just started out my garage gym pursuit and bought a bells of steel power rack, I feel trapped with the limitations of a 2.3x2.3 rack with 5/8 holes after witnessing this video and now want a more open platform like this! The UK is so far behind the US and we have to import rogue from Europe which sucks as the second hand market is next to non-existent. Maybe it’s best I don’t as I’ll get divorced.
Glad you got the surplus strength pulley! Super good idea with attaching it to the rhino, I’d love to see a video of you getting creative and creating options with the surplus strength unit.
If I could only choose between 'closed environment' or 'open source', I'd go with the latter. Buying a single decent rack and being able to add almost anything from almost any company, is a huge benefit that to anyone but the truly professional outweighs the extra attention of detail and more tailormade fit. At the end of the day it's all gym equipment; meant to be rugged and rarely requiring 'closed system' like setups in order to function. Great work!
Would love to see a video of you loading / unloading weight on the rhino - does not look like it would be quick / efficient to get 45lb plates in and out....
Hey Coop, does the Vendetta increase the length of the jammer arms? Would you still be able to use the vendatta arms on a rogue short lever arm configuration inside the rack?
So it looks like this is 4 Titan extension kits, 8 43 inch rogue top cross member items and rogue rhino stand alone? With 4 bottom cross members? I cant seem to find the bottom cross members on rogue's site though.
Your videos have been a huge help in my first rack purchase decision. Thank you. PR-5000 VS ROGUE Monster. Now trying to decide which Rogue Monster version i want. There are a few options. RM-3 2.0 , RM-6 2.0, RM-4 2.0, Im lost and ready to order. They all three look the same to me.
Hey Coop, do you think you can do a video on how someone who works out in a garage gym can find a coach? There’s no info around as to how to go about it and what resources you can trust. That would be value-added for sure. Thanks for considering.
Where’d you get those dip horns? I know you mentioned in the previous 1.0 coop squat you were going to get a custom set made I think from black widow. Since then they have a pair on their website. Are those the ones you’re using in this video, could the ones they have on their site work just as well either way?
I see the amount of plates you have. I've watched your videos about the different types of plates available. I'm looking for plates, but i don't know how many of each to get to be optimal. Can you please do a video "Optimal plate kit for beginner, intermediate, advanced".
Do you like the 24" spacing for your rhino drop in or do you feel 30-36" would give you more flexible options for additional set ups, bench arrangements etc? Going from a 4 post to 6 post setup and curious with the functionality you've experienced.
Hi Coop! Can you tell me the make of the steel plate ball target that you have attached to the rack? I am looking for exactly that for my rack. Thank you.
It’s a year later and we are ready for the ultimate Coop Squat Rebuild: Crème De La Gym edition Then like a month later do the quality budget version k thanks
Been looking all over to see if the rhino attachment is a huge hinderance on doing incline benches. What are the negatives to attaching the rhino? Looking at the rm-6 rhino combo. 😊
nerd advice for Sam: collect all the weight and put them into an excel sheet. 1) this means the next time coop ask you to calculate something, you already have most of the data in it. 2) if you mess up in the calculations, you won't have to reenter everything 2, 3, or 17 times.
Coop, can you do a review on all the squat wedges out there. PLEASE! I’m a big fan of Rogue but I don’t want to purchase from Rogue just because I’m a fan if I don’t hve to.
Amazing Coop! Shows what can be achieved with some creativity. If ever you want to send your old Kensui EZ vest to a new loving home, will be more than willing to show it love 😊 Loving the content 🇬🇧
How u doing bro. Hey do u know if the titan attachments 5/8 will fit rogue RML-3 rack, i think they do but but 100% sure. Iam thinkimg about buying a RML-3 rack to drop in my standalone rhino. I already have lots of titan x3, 5/8" attachments. I can always buy 1" adapters if I decide to buy the rogue rm 3 with 1" holes... ...iam also debating between the 6 post or 4 post 30" to drop in my stand alone rhino to make a little space in my one car 21x10 garage. I have an Isolator coming too and i want a dedicated upright for it:).. I already have an inspire FT, a selectorized stand alone lat pull down, echo rogue bike and many other things..I also just added a one person ir sauna. With the 6 post rack I will have 2 stations in case iam working out with wife which she does different workouts than I do and i also will have plate storage but I think the 6 post are long🙄 anyways any advice will be good😊
You should caveat this review with a “if you have a ton of money to set on fire”. Freaking awesome, but goddam, why aren’t you competing in the Olympia!?
I wanna lat pulldown, was thinking about the bells of steel. Now I'm considering something like this. I don't know if I want to load it though but it would be nice to have more than 310 lb
Do you think it would fit an XL REI sleeping pad inside the rack? Because that’s where my Wife would make me sleep if I even thought about doing this? 😂🤣

Definitely lots of hammock attachments 🤣

I don’t think it would hurt to have Sam start over and double check everything.
I agree, he was texting.
he was filling out an application to work for REP Fitness
Job's open... although we usually don't have much headroom for new employees.
Headroom can be increased by moving out of the basement
@@bmstylee Lol it could be Foyer Brandon or Master Bedroom Brandon!
@@bmstylee that was the joke 🙃
Hahahahhaha
Dig down
Most times people say they have a "home gym" they mean a Squat stand and a flat bench in the corner of a dark wooden shed. When This guy says home gym, he means it, holy mother of God that's insane.
You could put some drywall around all those rails and run some electrical, plumbing and rent it out as a 1 bed 1 bath tiny house.
By 2025 Coop's entire house will be a squat rack
And Sam will be jackedy jacked.
😂
I’m a wife and the handy one in the family so I’m planning out, purchasing, assembling and installing everything for our home gym. Love seeing these vids as they are great source of inspo and info.

For the sake of future moving guys, I hope this is your forever home gym Coop 😂
Good luck, coop buys a new house every 18 months or whenever Rep comes out with a new rack model

The UK is so far behind the US and we have to import rogue from Europe which sucks as the second hand market is next to non-existent.
Maybe it’s best I don’t as I’ll get divorced.
This is the best garage gym channel. Swole Jole approves.
Coop is my hero....almost makes me want to drive through Springfield.
Time to do it again at all 3 price points. Have fun Sam 🥳
Great video! Do we have an ETA on the functional trainer comparison video? Excited to hear your thoughts on the different options
You demonstrated what the rhino can do so well and I wish I had the space for it. Seems like a great way to add some variety in a convenient way.
awesome home gym, Coop! your gym has come a long way since 2020. the walls, lighting and racks give it an awesome touch.
Glad you got the surplus strength pulley! Super good idea with attaching it to the rhino, I’d love to see a video of you getting creative and creating options with the surplus strength unit.
That is amazing!! Total respect for your passion!
What’s the slam ball plate on the side of the rack? I’ve been looking for a good one and don’t wanna destroy my walls thx
Seconded, what is that thing?!
Step up plate from stray dog strength
Open source is so awesome, Coop can custom-engineer a square, and call it a box!
Bwuajajaja “did you get the bolts?” Then the x files music ah man too funny
make a “budget” version build video PLEASE with cherries and knurling on top PRETTY PLEASE
That...looks...AWESOME 🔥🔥
This is amazing and I love the idea. Great job Coop!
Coop and Sam are THE duo!
This guy sure loves pull-ups
Screw the Monster Cave, this is the Coop Cave!
I don't think I saw a single comment supporting a closed system...
Cause open source is the best!
If I could only choose between 'closed environment' or 'open source', I'd go with the latter.
Buying a single decent rack and being able to add almost anything from almost any company, is a huge benefit that to anyone but the truly professional outweighs the extra attention of detail and more tailormade fit.

Great work!
This is awesome! Very creative rack you have there Coop. I'm inspired!!!
I love that 3 change plate attachment
Same. Simple, but well done!
Would love to see a video of you loading / unloading weight on the rhino - does not look like it would be quick / efficient to get 45lb plates in and out....
It would be cool to make a series called pimp my garage gym
Sam killed me with the Basement Brandon comment!
Love how you maximized the use of the rhino
Sorry, I didn't catch the name or brand of those dip bars you are using?
2:21 now I know what to count at night so I can fall asleep 👍🏼
Video idea: Dumbbells vs Kettlebells vs Fatbells?
Garage Gym Reviews has jumped the shark.
Hey guys this is COOP!
Love it. It’s beyond overkill.
This guys Mustache becomes more epic every video
After all the issues you had with the Rogue pull up handles... surprised you did not go Prime RO-T8 with 1" spacers.
I like the RO-T8 Handles, but I prefer having the round handle most of the time tbh.
Anyone know what those dip horns are? Never seen those and now have to have them.
Custom from Black Widow Training Gear. (You won't find them on their site 🥺)

This is just really expensive legos for adults. I love this hobby!
What is the metal plate you are doing the medicine ball throw onto?
Coop - Would you please tell us the name of the black crossmembers sitting on top of this rack? They are not bolted down .
Hey Coop, does the Vendetta increase the length of the jammer arms? Would you still be able to use the vendatta arms on a rogue short lever arm configuration inside the rack?
what is that dip attachment you are using? Looks perfect
So nice!!
So it looks like this is 4 Titan extension kits, 8 43 inch rogue top cross member items and rogue rhino stand alone? With 4 bottom cross members? I cant seem to find the bottom cross members on rogue's site though.
What company is that medicine ball target attachment from?
never knew you needed 136 different places to do pull ups
Thank God you're putting that Titan plyo box jump machine to use
Your videos have been a huge help in my first rack purchase decision. Thank you. PR-5000 VS ROGUE Monster. Now trying to decide which Rogue Monster version i want. There are a few options. RM-3 2.0 , RM-6 2.0, RM-4 2.0, Im lost and ready to order. They all three look the same to me.
Would you be able to bolt a Titan extension kit to a Rogue rm3 to make it a 6 post?
Hey Coop, what width are the crossmembers that you have the plate posts attached to? And are they from REP?
Assambly Sam threatening to take a job with BasementBrandon 🤣🔥
What a beast of a rack.
Hey Coop, do you think you can do a video on how someone who works out in a garage gym can find a coach? There’s no info around as to how to go about it and what resources you can trust. That would be value-added for sure. Thanks for considering.

Has Coop ever said what the DIY thing was @ 3:50?
I made the original coop squat with slinger and rogue crown pull up bar on the front. Love it
Love open source system theory. Followed your lead and did the same.
I'm looking forward to seeing Sam make a cameo appearance with Brandon in the basement
If i get rich one day, i don't want a big house with a garage, i want a big garage with a house and a gym just like that! lol
Cool DIY plate dividers
your gym is basically a supercar of homegyms lmao.
Where are those dip horns from? Definitely see the value in having two individual dip horns, instead of a single attachment.
Custom from Black Widow Training Gear. (You won't find them on their site 🥺)

@Garage Gym Reviews Rep said they are coming out with one too this year
What's COOP gonna do when the Rep Fitness Aries Cable System come out? He's screwed!

Hi Coop/Sam! Can you let me what brand of jammer arms are the ones at the back in front of the Rhino squat?
What dip handles are you @garagegymreviews using?
Hi Coop! Can you tell me the make of the steel plate ball target that you have attached to the rack? I am looking for exactly that for my rack. Thank you.
The $1 million Dollar Option!!
It’s a year later and we are ready for the ultimate Coop Squat Rebuild: Crème De La Gym edition
Then like a month later do the quality budget version k thanks
Ask Sam to calculate total cost!!!!
Been looking all over to see if the rhino attachment is a huge hinderance on doing incline benches. What are the negatives to attaching the rhino? Looking at the rm-6 rhino combo. 😊
We love Sam!
Need to get a build list/guide for the og rack and this one 🤣

It looks like Coop made his own DIY Rogue "cave" type deal.
Coop, can you do a review on all the squat wedges out there. PLEASE! I’m a big fan of Rogue but I don’t want to purchase from Rogue just because I’m a fan if I don’t hve to.

What are the dip bars, Coop?
Hey Coop would the Rogue Monster spotter arms fit on the Rep PR-5000 rack?
I don't like the rep PR-5000 spotter arms they don't come with the pins.
Did you find the answer?
How did you hang the Rogue Utility Seat 7:23 ?
Hey guys this is POOP! Still waiting for him to say it.
@Garage Gym Reviews
The above is a scammer.
You should contact Guinness book of world records and build the heaviest squat rack. That would be cool!
Could probably buy Twitter with the cost of that set up
You should caveat this review with a “if you have a ton of money to set on fire”. Freaking awesome, but goddam, why aren’t you competing in the Olympia!?
I wanna lat pulldown, was thinking about the bells of steel. Now I'm considering something like this. I don't know if I want to load it though but it would be nice to have more than 310 lb
Hey Coop - Do you have any clearance issues loading plates onto your Rhino? Can't tell what size Rogue Top Crossmember you have spanning the distance?
Great video! Can you attach the prime RO8 pullup handles to a rogue monster lite crossmember? Thanks for all your content!
And one day Coop will use it...
