IT is not all of them. I own the Platinum Plus bought in 2006 from QVC and it doesn't accept the weight bar.

I don't know about all the models, but I have a Total Gym XLS, and it can be used with a weight bar.

Hello, this gym does not have a dedicated chart. Your best option is to call Body-Solid and ask for the G9S chart, which is a very similar gym.

Larry, I believe so, but I'd check with the Total Gym Site and ask them. Goggle it up as I'm sure they have a way for one to contact them. Good luck, Gary

I don't know but if you call Total Gym they can probably answer your question and steer you toward the right attachement for your model TG. Hope this helps.

Hi Allan,Sorry for the delayed response. Talked to Body Solid and they don't have anything in writing but they rate the Pro Power Rack - GPR378 at 800lbs for all components including spotter bars. If you are looking for something with 1000lb rating, Body Solid has the SMR1000, which is part of their Pro Club Line of equipment. Thanks,HFEfitness

Standard, but you could probably use an olympic bar. You'll want to be carefull adding heavy plates one side at a time as it has a small base and standard bars are only 15lbs...it could fly off and smack you if you're not carefull.

You need Olympic weights for this bar. Standard plates for a standard bar. You are smart to check because many stores don't carry a lot of Olympic plates.

Weight plates: black plastic around (to avoid bad noise and rust). 16lbs per plates. Total 13 plates. Perfect conception and wonderful design. All very good quality. Very nice finish. Red cord around the seats and biceps. To complete your Home Gym, you need ONLY: Triceps rope (around $10) and Stirrup handle (for your back around $25) ON AMAZON ONLY! I WAS PERSONAL TRAINER, SO I KNOW WELL. It's the BEST. Come by FEDEX (fast delivery): 6 packages. Installation: You need 4h if you follow the great booket. TIPS (BASIC): OF COURSE: I put some W40 spray on my parts (cables, bars guides etc...) to protect the move parts. And put a clean towels on the PU Leather to protect it. So, I can keep this Adidas (French great Sport Brand - expensive) LIFETIME! I do not regret. I train 5 times a week. And you will not regret. LET'S GO. It's good deal. Steve

Right, it's the bar with the PowerBlock handles attached. You have to have the Classic PowerBlock set of weights.

You do not have to purchase the bar. The weights do not come with the machine. It is a very nice piece of equipment.

No leg cuffs, that is a new innovation for the total gym. Perhaps they will add them in the future? I also wish my machine had dip bars as well, but I can't really complain about all I can do for the price. I also like the total gym's new handle, as the cables do not pull down on your arms as much, if any. But the bottom plate still works well enough for lower body exercises.

Standard plates (the ones that fit this particular bar) don't usually come in 45 lb configurations. That size is usually associated with the Olympic (2") bar. The weight plate that does fit this bar is the 50 lb one and by own estimation, the bar should easily accommodate at least five on each side. Hope this helps...

The bars hold olympic weights. It is great for bench. You do not need this for Deadlift.

No. You'll need to buy them separately. Make sure you get an Olympic style set, they have the bigger center hole to fit the machine. I bought a nice 300 pound set from Dick's for a good price. It came with the bar that I don't use, but it was still cheaper to buy the set versus buying the plates individually.

Various testimonies have shown that guys weighing more than you, even up to 340 lbs have used the total gym with positive results. The guy that weighed about 340 lbs has lost about 177 lbs. This model of the Total Gym is very solid and sturdy, unlike the early models when it first started.

Bar is included, weights are not.Any standard weight plates will work with it (example: http://worldfitnessnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/weight-plates.jpg)
