The next time you run the macro the menu and the Standard bar are enabled, the custom CommandBar is disabled.
Sub ToggleCommandBars()
Dim cbEnabled As Boolean
    ' get the current commandbar state
    cbEnabled = Not Application.CommandBars(1).Enabled
    ' apply the new state to the Workbook Menu Bar
    Application.CommandBars(1).Enabled = cbEnabled
    ' apply the new state to the Standard toolbar
    Application.CommandBars("StandardOPE").Enabled = cbEnabled
    ' apply the new state to a custom commandbar (the oposite of the previous two)
    Application.CommandBars("MyCustomCommandBar").Enabled = Not cbEnabled
