power rack
Barbell safety enclosure
A power rack is a piece of weight training equipment consisting of four vertical posts with adjustable horizontal safety bars or pins.
The structure allows a lifter to perform barbell exercises like squats and bench presses without a spotter—if you fail a lift, you set the bar on the safety bars rather than dropping it.
Also called a squat rack or power cage: I waited for the power rack to open up.
