I not only wanted a yoke, but a squat stand as well. This fit the bill perfectly! It is a tad on the heavy side on it's own, however I enjoy that because of how stable it feels when performing pulls ups or using the rep dip attachment inside the rack. I wanted to simplify my training set up and not have a power rack anymore with too many bells and whistles. I think my only issue with it is that I wish it had a smaller pull up bar option. I ended up buying the Rogue socket pull up bar that fits in the middle perfectly. It feels less stable however, but the Rogue bar is knurled, stainless, and smaller which makes doing pull ups easier.

THANKS REP!

Best yoke I have ever used and it also doubles as an extremly sturdy squat stand if you buy some J hooks and spotter arms. I am a heavy bencher and squatter and this yoke just feels incredibly sturdy. I bought it as a yoke and I use it more for a rack than my regular rack at this point.

I will say I rarely write reviews, but after spending months researching I’m hoping i save some time from anyone who is debating on purchasing this. I’ve trained strongman for about 5 years now and decided to invest in a home gym. This thing is a tank, solid as any rack can be without it being bolted down. As far as using it as a power rack it does everything you can ask. And you are able to purchase band pegs for conjugate training as well. I’ve used rogue and titan yokes before, they work great as a yoke but are shaky as a rack. I’ve racked 600lbs onto this thing without any give. I also will drop a log on the spotter arms and it is solid. And as a yoke it is very well balanced and strong. Only thing I don’t like is the pins holding the yoke crossmember on goes right where I like to place my hand. But I put my hand there anyways and have no issues running 700lbs+ on this so far. I purchased this during black Friday and waited to give it an honest review and if I’m building a strongman gym and only want the best that is currently available, I would go with this yoke. I did not purchase the carry attachment because I have farmers handles already. But I did purchase the pull up bar, which I’m sure does help stabilize it as a rack but I can’t say for sure And I added on the skids which work great. All in all a great piece of equipment for the price. As it can be used as a very strong rack or yoke.

We bought the Oxylus Yoke to use as a squat rack instead of a traditional power rack as well as a yoke for strongman training. It offers great versatility in the uses as a squat rack and is balanced and heavy enough to get great yoke runs in. The thickness of the cross bar and durability of the steel means I can load sandbags and stones over it without worry as well. I have already squatted heavy and have had no issues, be sure you have a 36mm socket wrench to really get the bolts secured or it may lean a little bit. Overall fantastic and versatile piece of equipment and undoubtedly one of the best yokes on the market for such a great value.
