Take it to the next level with a Power Rod upgrade. The upgrade includes two 50-pound rod attachments and increases the total resistance to 410 pounds on select Bowflex gyms. Review: Easy to install, nice upgrade. 310 to 410 - Took my machine from 310# to 410#. Nice upgrade, never thought I'd need to do this at my age (62yo), but the machine is used regularly & obviously doing the job. New ones were noticeably stiffer than the existing 50's, so I used an archery pull test gauge on all of the rods. Existing ones tested at 40#, the 2 new ones tested at 50-52#. Exactly as they should. Current plan is to replace the other 4 big ones, as they've softened over the years with use. Installation was easy, use a short screwdriver & remove a couple screws from the underside of the existing block. Slide the upgrade block onto the end, then use the metal bracket to hold everything in place. Be sure to use the screws which came with the upgrade, they're longer than the original ones & will hold better. Review: Awesome addition - I ordered these to add aditional weight onto my Pro series Bowflex. They work great, definitely increased the resistance, and are helping with with my goals. The attachment comes connected on the bottom of the rods and slid perfectly into the adaptor on the Bowflex. I know other series adaptors do not match up, so be sure to check and make sure this connector will work. I already added 50 rods to the open holes on the back, so this brings my resistance to 410. The cables are holding up great under the additional strain and I am not seeing anything to suggest that the weight is too much. Definitely worth the money. ## Features - Increase Bowflex resistance from 310 lb. to 410 lb. on select Bowflex gyms - Includes two 50-lb. power rods - Upgrade fits Ultimate 2, Ultimate, Xtreme 2 SE, Xtreme 2, Xtreme SE, Xceed, Xtreme, Sport, Blaze, Elite ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000F5K9M4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #32,580 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #10 in Home Gym Systems | | Brand | Bowflex | | Brand Name | Bowflex | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,107 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00708447503978 | | Grip Size | 12 inches (30.48 cm) | | Included Components | composite materials | | Item Type Name | Bowflex Home Gym 410-Pound Rod Upgrade, Black | | Manufacturer | Johnson Health Tech Trading | | Manufacturer Part Number | 10071 | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | 10071 | | Number of Items | 1 | | UPC | 708447139504 708447503978 | | Unit Count | 2.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 90 days | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Bowflex - **Finish Type:** Black - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00708447503978 - **Grip Size:** 12 inches (30.48 cm) - **Grip Type:** Knurled - **Manufacturer:** Johnson Health Tech Trading - **Material:** Metal - **UPC:** 708447139504 708447503978 - **Weight Limit:** 410 Pounds ## Images ![Bowflex Home Gym Power Rod Upgrade Options - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61xuCC8M0CL.jpg) ![Bowflex Home Gym Power Rod Upgrade Options - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61aBDA4KG3L.jpg) ![Bowflex Home Gym Power Rod Upgrade Options - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61CwOUkKpgL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this work with a Bowflex Exceed?** A: I am curious. I installed the extra 2x50s by reversing the box. Bowflex does not authorize this according to their website. But regardless - I'm wondering about the comments on the tension actually not being 310 lbs but only 155 lbs (1/2 the total). Can anyone verify this? I'll be bummed as I've been using it for 18 months. **Q: Do these rods come with lower attachment box? The part that attaches to machine.** A: The machines come with the 210-lb rod box. The rod box has two open slots to add more rods, thats for the 310-lb upgrade. The 410-lb upgrade rods come pre attached to a small rod box with a plate that attaches to the 210-lb rod box. **Q: My Blaze came with 210 lbs with room for 2 more 50 lb. rods or 310 total. How do I then get to 410 lbs?** A: it comes with a bracket that mounts to the back of the power rod assembly. **Q: does this fit the PR1000 model?** A: There is a video on YouTube on how to upgrade the pr1000 with 4 50 lb rods....worth checking out.... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to install, nice upgrade. 310 to 410 *by B***Y on April 8, 2025* Took my machine from 310# to 410#.
