Are the heavier bars sturdy enough to support some weight to perform inverted rows?

Yes! There is a metal rod underneath the black foam that you see in the picture.I'm about 150lbs, i put my 15lb bar across two of my kitchen chairs to raise it up to sit on it....the bar did not give at all! These bars are very sturdy! The black foam that you see covering them makes it comfortable to hold when using them! Ilove my bars!

I think they are. It's a pretty solid piece of steel. I think if I were to prop both ends up and hang from under it it could support more than my weight and I weigh about 190lbs.

I have put 85 pound dumbbells in these with no issue so I am sure you could.

No question that the bar when properly installed is sturdy and stable enough to support a normal weight. But I think it might be tough to pull yourself up from a sitting position with just this bar, depending on how good your balance is as you pull yourself up.

I have not added weights so could not give definitive yes, however, the connector is a standard bar size so would not expect a problem

I am 2550 pounds of mostly muscle, they support me with no problem. If they don't, I'm sure you have either mis-assembled or have a product liability case coming! Frankly they are very good, sturdy, attractive and tough, so far....

Yes, I have a shelf on my brackets. They will support about 8 pounds or so.

Those shelves are quite thick and extremely strong. I woudn't worry much unless you intend on keeping your barbells on it.

They're very sturdy. Not easily bent at all, but I'm sure with enough force, could be.

Yes! I own a pair of gravity boots and this bar works well for these types of exercises. Definitely worth the money.

I don't have it extended all the way, so not certain, but I would bet it is. The bars are pretty high quality and it seemed solid when I extended it bf I put it in place. I have them 4 high now, about 1/2 extended, and very happy with how solid it is. Supports the weight no problem, just a bit unsteady balance wise (too tall). Need to get a bracket to secure it.

If you mean to hang from the bars by your knees for the abdominals, I wouldn't recommend it. I have tried the L pullups and it works. I find the dip stand very stable--I'm 6'1" and 215#

Yes they are. Give extremely good support for heavier weights. Excellent swing set.

They do sell a stabilizing bar if you go to the company website, however we put 50lb weights on the feet.

Yes, the dumbbell bar would hold. It would probably consist of 4 ten pound plates on each side with the remaining plates and bar and collars adding up to 100 pounds.

Yes. I have that same rack and those same bars which I use for dips and they're awesome! There's a locking screw on the bars for extra stability but I don't bother because it's just extra time and hassle. There's some wobble without screwing them in but once you're doing dips you don't notice it at all since you're pushing down on the bars which stabilizes them anyway. I've also had guys around 220lbs+ doing dips on them with no worries at all. I would also recommend setting them to the inside of the rack as the rack is very light so as to prevent any chances of tipping over. And when doing dips I would do them facing the other side of the rack because depending on how high you set the bars and how tall you are, you don't want to take the chance of bumping your head into the crossbeam if you can't keep from going straight up and down due to how short the rack is.

In my opinion no that should not be a problem the dip bars are sufficiently extended from the bar. This piece of equipment is well thought out.

Yes, I believe they would support quite a bit of weight, stacked as you described. I put all my weight, 130 lbs., on a 2-stack and it was strong and steady. I'd say you could get away with up to 150 lbs. easily.
