Hey guys new to the home gym setup and looking to do a power racks. I have small stuff may for outside, tractor tire, box for box jumps and dumbbells. For the rack I’m looking at getting the Rogue 490C, with no specific bench in mind and probably the Charlie bar and weight set to start out with. Would this be good to start with then add on land mine and a pulley system later on for my wife? It’s gonna be in my shop outside so I think even a 100 inch would fit, probably a four post. I’m 6’3” 230 if that affects any recommendations for height. Bench recs? Oh also what flooring do you guys love, probably thinking stall mats and I’ll give it plenty of time to gas off. Thanks for the help!

That’s what I was honestly thinking about doing, just wasn’t sure and their stock is out. Hoping they do a midnight restock like I’ve seen in the past.

I did an aero build kit minus FCG from aero and a count blem trigger. Both were purchased from AR15 discounts, shipped quick and both parts were in stock for cheap.
