    Trying to find a sumo rack somewhere in Toronto for less than $300

    I really can't find any at all


    I tried amazon - but the ones they do ship to Canada, shipping is like $160, which is way too much.

    I only have $250, and so I'm hoping I can borrow $50 from my parents at the most, but the problem is I can't even find a sumo rack at all!


    Can anyone help me find one?


    Thanks a bunch

    Have you been to Treadmill Factory? They have like 3 stores in the GT area.

    There are also other fitness stores in Toronto, but I can't remember the names right now.

    EDIT: Fitness Source also has many stores in the GT area. There's also Foremost Fitness, but from what I remember, their equipment is all pretty high quality and expensive.

    I have, but I couldn't find a sumo rack there.


    Thanks for reply, tell me if you remember any other fitness stores

    Edit - Fitness Source didn't have a full list of what they sold, so I'll give them a call. I couldn't find a sumo rack at foremost fitness.

    Exercise Direct - their store is in Winnipeg, but they do ship. They have a catalog on their website, but those have been around for a long time now, so you should probably call them.

    Primal Athletes - I've never been to their store, but was about to order an Olympic weight set from them to ship to Ottawa when I suddenly found plates used locally. Seems like they also have a store in Toronto.

    How high (or how low ) is your basement ceiling?

    205cm is just less than 81" and a lot of racks seem to be about 82". Have you checked out a lot of power racks? I'm not sure if there are, but I would think they would be some that are less than 80". Maybe someone else know of one.
