    Question Power Cage vs. Power Rack

    These are the two machines I'm looking at

    Power Cage
    http://www.newyorkbarbells.tv/pro92560.html

    Power Rack
    http://www.newyorkbarbells.tv/8510.html

    Is there an advantage to getting one over the other?

    The cage really has no advantage. as tetsuo said, no chinning, and also that means less stability. plus, no lat option expandability. and they have the same weight capacity
