)

Thanks!

You can get a bench and squat rack from Dick's for about $200.00. There is also one with a cable attachment. I think it will fit your needs well.

Yeah i would go with a power rack and bench, plus a good set of plates.

Fitso,
For Roman chair exercises I usually set the pins of a power rack at bench height and put on a loaded barbell. I then turn the bench sideways and do the exercises accross the bench with my feet hooked on or under the barbell. I hope that makes sense.
