I dont own a squat rack and buying one is to expensive are there any homemade options that are worth a try or does anyone have any ideas?
the max weight it would be taking is about 100kgs
Two sturdy saw horses ansd do squats from a dead stop on the bottom.

I’ve made a couple out of wood, using 4 4x4’s for up rights 2x4’s across the bottoms and sides just for stability.
I got some heavy duty lug bolts to attach safty bars which i made out of 2x6’s. I have them adjustable for varying heights and exercises. And for racking the bar I have several holes drilled and use another set of lug bolts that I just move to where i need them. pm me if you want more info or anything
I bought a nice used squat rack and full weight set for $100 on craigslist. There and ebay often have great bargains if you’re patient.
I made one out of scaffolding tubes and clips. Takes a while to get it 100% stable, but once you do its rock solid.
