Can i put all 40 lbs on one bar?

Not on one bar, no. You can typically only put about 30lbs on one in my experience.

I can only answer that I bench multiple sets with a setup of about 100 lbs, and drop it into the bar rest area after each set. I have done that for a long time and have had no problems. I do not have the documentation that came with it, but I do not remember any limit being mentioned in it.

You can put 5 of the 10 pound plates on each side for 105 lbs. Or 5 of the 10 lb. plates and 2 of the 5 lb. plates for 115 lbs. But the collars don't screw all the way on if you do, its about 2 turns from even with the end. The bar is long enough to hold 6 of the 10 lb. plates on each side for a total of 125 lbs. But the collars only tighten 1/4 of the way they should. Not recommended!

All the weights SHOULD fit on one bar, but the clamps/spindles aren't very good on this set so the plates may shift or fall off if you're maxing out a bar.

You could if the bar is the right length...I believe you can do a 6 ft bar minimum...I did a 7 ft barbell Olympic size and it's not too big if that's a concern

Use standard flat plate weights that have a 1" hole when using the Total Gym Weight Bar.The maximum user weight plus additional weight must not exceed 300 pounds when a person uses the Total Gym Weight Bar with the Total Gym.When using the weight bar the weight should be added equally and evenly to both sides of the weight bar when stacking plate weights.Do not stack more than 25 pounds per side without adding equal weight to the opposite side of the bar.1" weight spring clip collars must be installed when the weight bar is in use.

yes, it will not be a problem. A good idea would be to distribute the weight among multiple support bars, not just one.

Because rear base is longer than front you should be able to.Very sturdy dip bar.Im 230 but only use it for regular dips.5 star piece of equipment.

Flipping the hex bar over is easy as long as the bar is not loaded with heavy weights. 1 45 on each side it no problem to flip. 2 45s is doable but u need to be careful not to mess up your back or floor. The short answer is that it is easy as long as the bar is not loaded.

I would not recommend doing flips on this bar. While sturdy enough to hold about 50 pounds, the flipping motion could cause it to topple. I recommend keeping at least one foot on the ground at all times.

The squat bar is sturdy enough for 405 maybe more but I don't need to go any heavier. What I did was purchase and olympic bar as well.

I can't give you an accurate answer. My guess would be that they would probably support total weight of about 75 pounds comfortably . Which means that each bar would probably support somewhere in the vicinity of about 40 pounds distributed along its length. Keep in mind this is strictly guess. I would not want to see anyone injured.

I do believe the bar will accept a standard plate, so if you wanted to, you probably could use 25lbs rather then the 10lbs plates. I have not tried to any larger plates myself, but am getting to the point that I could use a bit more, only thing would be the depth that your hand would be in and I do find that at times my forearm rubs against the 10lb plate as it is.

The bar I bought takes 1" plates, not Olympic-style plates. I have a pair of 50s I keep on mine, and it could fit 8 or 10 on a side, though I don't know if the bar itself could handle that much weight. I've had low 300s on mine (I'm 68, my heavy days are over) and everything was fine.

At least 14 on each bar, at leat 28 for the whole rack. I'd say probably 30.

No you can order extra bars. The rack is very sturdy can handle the weight of four bars of clothing.

Probably would be fine....you would have a gap under the bar extension but wouldn't see an issue with that. 4 on each side would be a bit cramped but you could pull it off....as long as it wasn't for 4 fat people :) Good luck. I've had the bar a while now and for the price it is hard to beat.
