This particular weight rack lives in Lane 6 alongside the Power Rack. Please use the right side with calibrated Rogue Fitness plates for powerlifts only (squats, bench, presses, deadlifts and accessories) and the left side with Eleiko competition discs for olympic weightlifting only. We consider these our premium competition plates so they should only be used with staff approval or in personal training.
And as always, put your equipment back in the order in which you found it.
