Product Description
Looking for a space- and time-saving workout, all at a great price? The Bowflex® PR3000 is a home gym value leader with more than 50 strength exercises and no cable changes needed between sets - all in a compact, space-saving design.

Amazon.com Product Description
The Bowflex PR3000 home gym is a great way to strengthen your muscles with over 50 strength exercises and a built-in rowing station. With up to 210 pounds of Power Rod resistance (can be upgraded to 310 pounds), this versatile machine helps work the abs, arms, chest, back, shoulders, and lower body. It includes a no-change cable pulley system, vertical bench press, triple-function hand grips for lat pull-down, and four-inch upholstered roller cushions for leg extension and leg curl exercises.

The PR3000 utilizes Bowflex's patented Power Rods, which provide resistance, or weight, that feels as good as or better than free weights--but without the inertia or risk of joint pain usually associated with free weights. You can hook one, two, three, four or all of your Power Rod units to the cable pulley system and go from as little as 5 pounds all the way up to 210 pounds of resistance.

They're precisely manufactured from a high-tech composite material under the highest quality control measures, then sheathed and tested 4 separate times to ensure quality and durability. The Power Rod units are so strong, you can flex them repeatedly but you won't be able to wear them out.

I bought this item last week from a local store for $847.00. It has been nothing but, wonderful. I will definetly need to upgrade to 310lbs later but, for now it is just great.
PROS- Easy to put together, a perfect machine for me even at 6'3" tall. Felt a little awkward at first doing kickbacks but, got used to it quickly.
CON - It states it has over 50 plus exercises but only lists 27 in the book. I called Bowflex and they told me to go to their site and look up the exercise manual for the Extreme 2. I did and it shows ALOT more exercises because both machines are very similar except for the lat pulldown bar on the Extreme 2.
Everything else is perfect. I will definetly be using this machine for a long time. The fact that the weight is upgradeable to 310lbs and the no pulley change system are huge differences in the workout saving valuable amounts of time to focus on lifting.

I have had this product for a about 2 weeks now and have noticed a huge difference in the way I feel. I have lost 12 lbs. and am getting more toned everyday. I went to the gym several years ago, I feel like I did when I left the gym after each 20to 30 minute workout. I need to lose about 50 more lbs and am confident this product will get these results.

I am glad I spent the extra money on the pr3000 instead of the pr1000. I think changing the cables between exercises would take alot more time. I highly recoment this product to anyone wanting to get in shape.

This is my first home gym. I was looking for something easy to use and conservative on space. The Bowflex PR3000 is perfect for those wishes. I use it almost everyday and feel I get a great work out. The machine is very well made and sturdy, and so easy to put together. The Bowflex products are expensive, but well worth the money. This home gym is a great alternative when going to a public gym is inconvienient.

I've been using the Bowflex PR3000 for 3 1/2 weeks as of this writing. I'm very over weight and I had read reviews of different exercise machines and the Bowflex was always at the top. I decided to give it a try. So far in 3 1/2 weeks I've lost 17 pounds and have put on a nice amount of muscle. I've followed the diet plan in the manual as closely as I can and I've found that I'm not as hungry as I used to be. I can also fit into some old pants that have been extremely tight and uncomfortable for several years. It's a satisfying feeling to stand on the scale and see the weight gradually coming off, to be able to fit in pants I had lost hope for fitting into again and feeling like I have some real muscle power now. I could not be happier with this machine! I must say though that I work out at least once a day, and most times twice a day: once in the morning before work and once when I get home after dinner. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday I do the recommended advanced weight loss workout in the Bowflex manual, and every other day plus weekends I just do crunches, curls, bench presses and calf raises.

This machine is excellent. My wife and I have been using it for a month now and have seen an improvement in overall condition. We are both nearing 60 and wanted to do something to maintain our physical health. We have been very pleased. It is very similar to the more expensive Xtreme® SE 2 home gym with the exception of the movable pulleys and small lat crunch bar. I added the extra 100 lb. bow set and a pull down bar which I would recommend. The exercise illustrations are not as good or complete as those shown in the Xtreme manual. In fact you can follow most all of the exercises listed in the Xtreme SE2 manual. The pdf. file is available online at:
