Gender: | Dips racks are dip racks in my opinion. The only difference is really how sturdy they, especially when it comes to the home versions that aren't bolted down. If your a bigger guy I would try it out in store to make sure its not going to move around on you. They also come in straight and angled bar versions, so you may want to try out both to see which you prefer. I personally like the angled bars. When I was into home gyms I got most of my stuff at New York Barbell. They have a nice selection of chinning and dipping stations that you may want to check out. |

Gender: | The one I was looking at at Dick's is angled back some, I tried it out in the store to make sure it would not tip with me hanging on it. it seems pretty sturdy its made of square tube and is hefty as far as the weight of the rack it self is concerned. its not the same one they are showing on line, I kinda liked the one I saw on line enough to warrant further investigation by going to the store to see it for my self, those are pretty flimsy compared to the one in the store. the clerk in the store told me the items ordered on line are sold by a different company contracting with Dick's sporting goods as their on line retailer. |

Gender: | I just checked the link from sleazy (chinning & dipping stations) the rack I saw at Dicks is almost identical to the one on the bottom of the page the white one model #C8160W, the difference is the chip up bar was on the back if I recall correctly othen that it looks the same |
