The Body-Solid multi press rack (GPR370B) is a full-commercial half rack rated at 800 lb, built from 2" x 3" high tensile strength steel welded on all four sides. Its 14-position gunrack, 7° reverse-pitch uprights and 17" safeties suit squats, presses and heavy free-weight work at home or in a facility.
This rack puts a loaded barbell at the right height, safeties underneath it, and nothing in your way.
What is a multi-press rack? It is a half rack—two heavy uprights on an extra-wide 4-point stance—where you lift in front of the frame instead of inside a cage. You get walk-in access and an open feel that a full cage can't match.
That layout opens the whole free-weight menu. Squats, calf raises, lunges, deadlifts, and upright rows all run off the same frame. Can you bench press on a multi-press rack? Yes. Add any free-weight bench, and you get flat, incline, decline, and shoulder press without buying a second station.
Body-Solid lists this one as Commercial for application and Total Body for exercise focus. Type: Half Rack. It is built for home and commercial use, and the specification sheet backs that up.
The frame is why this rack outlives cheaper ones.
Extra-heavy duty 2" x 3" high-tensile-strength steel forms the mainframe, welded on all four sides rather than two. That is the difference between a rack that stays square under load and one that develops play in its second year.
Two capacity numbers appear on this product, and they measure different things:
Most listings blur those two into one headline number. They are separate, and the 800 lb rating is the one that governs your programming.
The rest of the build follows the same logic. Oversized 17" long safeties in 2" x 3" 11-gauge steel catch a failed rep instead of folding around it. The 7° reverse pitch on the mainframe uprights accommodates your body's natural lifting path, so lift-off and racking positions sit exactly where your arms already travel. And that 14-position gun rack lets you walk the bar up and down without removing plates—a small feature until you are mid-session and unwilling to strip four 45s to change height.
Four Olympic storage posts suspend your plates within arm's reach and keep them off the floor.
Measure first. The GPR370B occupies 45" L x 64" W x 74" H.
That 74-inch height carries a consequence most product listings skip: it clears low basement ceilings and lets a garage door track run freely overhead. The honest trade-off is that the feature list includes no chinning bar, so pull-ups happen elsewhere.
How much ceiling height do I need for this rack? Enough to clear 74 inches plus your flooring. Rubber tiles or a lifting platform take an inch or two off your working height.
Width needs separate math. The rack measures 64" across, but a 7-ft Olympic bar runs roughly 86" end to end. Measure wall to wall and leave a loading room on both sides.

Choose the GPR370B if ceiling height is tight and you want open access. Choose a full cage if you chase maximal squats alone.

Is a half rack safe enough for heavy squats? Yes, within its rating and with the safeties set correctly. You lift in front of the frame, so a missed rep lands on the 17" safeties rather than inside a cage.

The rack is the frame. Budget for the rest.
Weight plates, a barbell, a bench, and collars are separate purchases. Most buyers add an adjustable weight bench in the same order, since that single addition turns the GPR370B into a complete pressing station.
Documentation ships with the product and is available on this page: the product manual, the schematics, the product data sheet, and Body-Solid's power rack comparison chart.
Warranty coverage runs under the Body-Solid Commercial Warranty and the Body-Solid Lifetime Warranty. Buying from an authorized dealer keeps that coverage intact—grey-market racks frequently void it. Hamilton Home Fitness is an authorized Body-Solid dealer, shipping from Tennessee to all 50 states.

Does this rack hold 800 lb or 1,000 lb?
Both figures are correct for different parts. The frame carries a rated weight capacity of 800 lbs. The 14-position gunrack is rated to handle over 1,000 lbs. Use the 800 lb frame rating when planning your heaviest lifts.
Is a barbell or bench included?
No. The GPR370B ships as the rack, its safeties, and its four Olympic storage posts. Weight plates, a bar, collars and a bench are bought separately. The rack accepts any free-weight bench.
Can I do pull-ups on the GPR370B?
The listed features do not include a chinning bar, so plan pull-ups on separate equipment. The 74-inch height that removes the bar is the same thing that lets the rack sit under a low ceiling or a garage door track.
Will it work for a commercial gym?
Yes. The application is listed as commercial, the mainframe is welded on all four sides, and the same model is used in both home and facility settings. Its 800 lb rating suits general members and most training programs.
How do shipping and returns work?
Racks ship freight nationwide. Returns run 30 days from purchase, with equipment undamaged and in original packaging for inspection; restocking and return shipping charges can apply. Read the full policy before ordering a freight item.
How does the 7° pitch actually help?
The uprights lean back 7 degrees so the bar path matches how your shoulders and hips already move. Racking and un-racking feel predictable rather than awkward, which matters most on the reps you barely finish.
You get a fully welded commercial frame, an 800 lb rating, 17-inch safeties and a 14-position gunrack for $725 — a price that undercuts most racks built to this standard.
