Pros & Cons

What we like ...
  • The Y-1 Yoke from Rogue is an all-in-one machine that could easily be used in a garage gym in place of a traditional power rack. We've absolute abused ours over the years, and it still looks and performs well.
  • Great quality with 2x3" 11 gauge steel uprights and a weight capacity of 750 pounds. For its size and maneuverability, it is the highest quality yoke on the market.
  • The 50" by 48" footprint allows it to fit in even the smallest garage gyms while still saving space for other equipment.
  • One reviewer commented, "But the versatility of the Y-1 has me stoked beyond belief. Overhead walks, traditional yoke walks, Zercher carries, prowler pushes, you name it" and that echoes the sentiment that is found throughout the reviews of the Y-1 Yoke.
  • Many people use it as an additional squat rack along with the yoke function making it a legit all-in-one machine.
  • The uprights have Westside Hole Spacing through the bench area.
  • 2 bases and 4 skid feet with plate storage posts make the Y-1 very stable during lifts.
  • The fully adjustable cross-bar allows for yoke carry, Zercher carries, Zercher squats, and sled training all in one machine.
  • The quality of the machine can be seen at first glance, and many reviewers remark that they receive compliments on the look of the yoke.
  • It is easily customizable for more than one person to use the Y-1 at a time no matter the size or strength difference.
  • It is a Rogue product that is made in the USA and comes back with a great warranty and terrific customer service.
What needs improvement ...
  • It's a little short, especially if you are over 5'10 there may be some issues when using the Y-1 Yoke for squatting.
  • The crossbar can be difficult to adjust during your workout and can add time to your workout.

    Summary

    The Rogue Y-1 Yoke was one of Rogue's most popular initial offerings and still remains an awesome piece of equipment for a home gym. We've used and abused the Y-1 and our review remains the same. It's excellent. If the height of the Y-1 is a potential problem for you or a workout partner then you may consider a different Rogue offering, but the Y-1 is perfect for most garage applications. With a smaller footprint, the versatility to perform almost any exercise, and great quality of construction, the Y-1 should be in consideration for anyone adding a yoke to their gym or someone not wanting a traditional power rack, but rather a cheaper, more versatile option.
