Questions & Answers
Have a Question?
-
Can you explain why these would not work for squats? is it just the height that stand extends to or is there another feature that is on the BD 8 or 9 that makes it better for squatting? I am only 63’ tall so am thinking the max height on these may work fine for me.
Since the BD-2 doesn't have as much height as the other stands it can be challenging depending on your height but you can do squats with the BD-2 stands if it works for your height.
-
Can these be used for decline bench press?
Yes, the BD-2 can be used for decline bench press. The minimum height for the top bar hook is 33.75" and if needed the safety catch can be utilized as well which is lower in height.
-
As owner of a Valor Fitness BD-9 squat stand I have the following question: Does the safety catch of these BD-2 bench press stands fit into my BD-9 stand? I have a recurrent lower back issue and I am looking for a solution to perform shoulder pushes without the necessity to lift the barbell from the ground to shoulder height at the beginning of every series, if you get my meaning. The J-hooks of my BD-9 are too narrow to be comfortable for this purpose. I need a wide catch to put down or pick up the bar in a second without much aiming.
Unfortunately, the safety catches from the BD-2 are not meant to fit with any other item.
-
Can these be used as squat stands for someone who is 5'5?
It is not recommended for squatting, but if you start from the bottom position of the squat, it will work (although making the exercise considerably more difficult).
For squat stands, we would recommend the BD-8 or the BD-9. -
How much do they weigh?
Each stand weighs approximately 30 lbs
-
How much weight will it support?
The BD-2 has a max weight load of 500lbs
