A valid concern when looking at different options for pull-up bars is the load they can bear. Luckily with each option of a pull-up bar, there is noted how much weight they can carry. From what is available on the market there are options that can barely carry 200 lbs and options that can carry more than 500 lbs. Of course, the more they can bear the better. The lowest load is noted with leverage-installed doorway pull-up bars. While pull-up bar stands can carry the highest load.
