Body Solid EXM3000LPS Home Gym Equipment Review by Store Owner

Body Solid Home Gym Equipment is widely considered to be among the best in the industry. The EXM3000LPS Home Gym is a perfect example of the ergonomic design that sets Body Solid Home Gym Equipment apart from the rest of the pack. Don't think that I am biased just because I sell Body Solid Home Gym Equipment; you will be hard pressed to find a negative review on their home gyms. Let's take a closer look at the EXM3000LPS and then compare it to another popular home gym called the Bowflex Ultimate 2 which sells for the same price.

The EXM3000LPS Home Gym fitness equipment comes with a leg press included in the package. The main benefits of using a leg press station instead of leg curl/leg extension equipment is that the leg press station allows you to workout both your quadriceps and your hamstring muscles at the same time. That's right, you don't need to break up your exercise routine to get a full upper leg workout with the EXM3000LPS Home Gym. Typically, home gym exercise equipment requires standing leg curls as the only option to work your hamstrings but the EXM3000LPS gives you the time saving option of using the leg press and exercising more efficiently. However, the leg curl and leg extension featured on the EXM3000LPS Home Gym Equipment will permit you to do some fine muscle toning if you have the time to maximize your workout. 

The leg press feature of the EXM3000LPS Home Gym also sports 2:1 ratio feature that allows you double up with both of the 210lb weight stacks for a total of 420lbs of resistance! That's enough weight to give the strongest home gym enthusiast a satisfying workout. Additional leg press features include a fully rubber encased foot press plate to prevent slippage and maximize safety and efficiency.

It is always recommended that you include a leg press station with your home gym equipment for the reasons stated above plus you don't have to pay additional shipping costs to acquire a leg press at a later date. The EXM3000LPS Home Gym comes complete and will last you a lifetime, guaranteed!

The Pec Dec station is another favorite of the best home gym equipment reviewers because it features dumbbell style handles instead of the traditional style padded arm. The dumbbell style handles will relieve stress on your shoulders and this dual function Pec Dec station will allow maximum development of your rear deltoid and pectoral muscles. Although the Pec Dec does not come with pads rest assured that the other elements of this premium home gym exercise equipment come with ample padding where needed. The Durafirm pads are designed for lumbar support and make the EXM3000LPS Home Gym the most comfortable home gym on the market today! In addition, the Durafirm pads come with Body Solids lifetime warranty - no questions asked!

But what really sets the EXM3000LPS Home Gym apart from the competition is the price. At $2279.00 this home gym equipment is far more than what you would get from similar home gyms on the market today. For example: I challenge any potential buyer of the Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym to make an across the board comparison to the EXM3000LPS Home Gym equipment. They both sell for the same price but they are in stark contrast in most areas.

1. Body Solid EXM3000LPS Home Gym equipment comes with a lifetime warranty - no questions asked. The Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym comes with a 12 year limited warranty that only covers defects in material or workmanship.

2. The EXM3000LPS Home Gym comes with 420 pounds of real weight based resistance that is easily adjusted with the selectorized pins. The Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym comes with power rods that are very cumbersome to adjust and awkward when you try to use them to workout.

3. The EXM3000LPS Home Gym is considered multigym home gym equipment that will allow up to 3 people to workout simultaneously. The Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym is a single stationed home gym that only works out one person at a time.

4. The Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym equipment does not come with a leg press station and the EXM3000LPS Home Gym does include a leg press station (see above for a list of the benefits)

5. The Ergonomic design of EXM3000LPS Home Gyms is vastly superior to the Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym. Chest exercises on the Bowflex look like they function smoothly in the infomercials but when you get it into your home and try to use it you will find that the chest press exercise is done at awkward angles and there are limited exercise alternatives. In fact, if you examine the Bowflex home gym infomercials you will find that many of the exercises that they are doing are different than what an experienced fitness enthusiast is accustomed to doing with traditional weight based home gym equipment. This does not mean that modern technology has not improved home gym equipment but the design of the Bowflex Home Gym makes many of the workout positions less than optimal.

With the best weight lifting equipment you get what you pay for. Making a wise purchase decision will get you the best deal for your dollar and more importantly you will enjoy working out with your home gym equipment and this will make your long term fitness goals attainable. When comparing apples to apples the Bowflex Ultimate 2 Home Gym is worth far less than the EXM3000LPS Home Gym for the reasons I stated above and many more.

At The Home Gym Supply Center I want you to get the best home gym equipment on the market. The only down side to this is that when you buy the EXM3000LPS Home Gym I lose a customer because you will have the best home gym fitness equipment that money can buy and this gives you little reason to come back for more.
