Heavy Dumbbell Spotter (Squat Rack Adapter)

This is a pretty good spotter and I'll share the pros and cons. Pros: Easy to put together and set up. Very solid and supports weight well. My weight cage is 49 inches wide, three inch posts, and one inch holes and the unit fits very well. Cons: Saddles for each dumbbell are a bit close so the initial lift will have the arms closer than what is ideal. Takes a little getting used to to rerack the weights when lifting. The rubber sleeves that go on the saddle can be difficult to get on if you follow the instructions. Instructions say use soapy water. Doesn't work well. I used WD-40 and it went on like a breeze. Finally, most lifters know that for the initial lift of a bar the best position is to have the eyes looking directly up at the bar and then clear the bar from the rack on the lift. Problem here is the dumbbells will hit the saddle when the weights are coming down because the saddle protrudes. This means having to be in a position slightly forward to clear the saddles when lifting up and down. This can be hard on the delts so I recommend on the initial lift to exaggerate the retraction of the scapula so as to avoid injury.

Very heavy duty! One of the best attachments to a power rack in my opinion! I always hated benching with dumbbells because of having to power them up before doing them but not now! This is a game changer!

My intensity with dumbbell bench pressing immediately increased with the use of the product. I was able to set up better for bench pressing; allowing my shoulder blades to fully retract and locking everything in nice and tight. Much better than "kicking" them up. Wish the commercial gym I belong to had this. All in all excellent addition to my garage gym.

I'm useing my wife's Amazon just because this product is so amazing! I use it every week for my dumbell training. It makes it very easy to go heavy without having to kick up weights. That's a hard task forme with the 125s but no prob with versaspot! On top of that it simple and easy to assemble. Great product A+ Paul. Va

This works amazingly well!! A must have for every gym enthusiast.
