Product Description
The NV Rack from NV Athletics is an innovative new piece of equipment developed around the principle of Non-Varying Resistance®, which enables athletes to generate their max power output at a lighter, safer, repeatable weight.
Equipped with a unique, universal clamping mechanism, the NV Rack can be attached to any dimension of squat rack, including all Monster and Monster Lite Rogue units. The mechanism easily slides up and down to any position for optimal versatility (or to accommodate brackets for safety bars), and it also comes with detachable flat heads or cone heads for a quick and secure set-up. Customers without a rack can also opt to purchase a compatible NV Stand Alone Platform that enables the same general functionality.
Once set up, users can customize the NV Rack by selecting any of the tool’s 3 different extension arm positions and 4 different levels of resistance.

Advantages of the NV Rack & Non-Varying Resistance:
As NV Rack inventor and company co-founder Brock Massner explains, this tool was created by streamlining three fundamental training methods already utilized in every gym. “I loved the power development of resistance bands, the versatility of free weights, and the controlled directional force of a cable machine,” he says. “So, why not combine it all to create the ultimate fitness accessory?”
Essentially, the NV Rack circumvents the limitations of those other resistance exercises, freeing the athlete to (1) generate maximum force, (2) maintain the same resistance level throughout a full exercise, and (3) train dynamically with the aid of greater versatility.
To put it another way, the NV Rack offers a new way to retain the benefits of lifting at a heavier load without adding additional weight. “We know that Force=Mass x Acceleration,” Massner says. “Non-Varying Resistance forces an increased acceleration at a lighter mass. This replicates lifting a heavier mass and, in turn, creates a greater force. The greater the force, the greater the power output.”
In addition to increasing power on desired exercises, the NV Rack can help increase muscle engagement, improve proper technique alignment, and decrease overall joint load.

The NV Rack includes a pair of primary upright attachments (with carry handles) and 5 additional attachment pieces for the ankles, hands, waist, barbell, and handle grips, respectively.
Popular Uses:
- Barbell Exercises: Using the NV Rack’s barbell attachments can assist with technique and increase speed and power output.
- Dumbbell Exercises: The tool’s hand straps enable increased muscle recruitment and ideal directional force angles during DB training.
- Kettlebell Exercises: Adds Non-Varying Resistance to get more out of KB swings, clean and jerk, snatches, and more
- Bodyweight Exercises: The NV Rack can also provide assistance and resistance for bodyweight movements and cardiovascular exercises.
Which Resistance Should You Use?
Because the NV Rack has numerous potential uses and can be helpful for experienced athletes and beginners, alike, NV Athletics has created a loose guideline for resistance settings based on the following percentages. Level 1: Use 80% of weights that you would normally use for the same desired number of reps. Level 2: 70%, Level 3: 60%, Level 4: 50%.
