This bar is rated to hold up to 300 pounds, so a 180-pound guy can do weight pull-ups with up to 120 extra pounds. It doesn’t feel as stable compared to wall-mounted or free-standing bars, however.
The top bar is extended further than the other bars to facilitate exercises where the user hangs vertically. The bars are 40 mm thick and oval shape. An incline board or pull-up bar can be attached to the bars. For spine disorders such as scoliosis, it is advisable to consult an orthopedist before performing any exercises at the wall bars.
