I hope I am wrong about this, but putting an excercise machine in the relaxing room is doom to fail. Tower Power works better. Good Luck and be consistent!
Thx for the demo vid! Good vid, wat i was looking for.. My girlfriened ordered this machine site to store (is free that way!) and i gonna start assembling tonight hopefully.. How long did it take you to assemble this rig..?
@RockIbanez85 It seemed like it took me all day, but I'm sure that all together it was about 3 1/2 hours. The trick is move at a very slow and steady speed. Don't be in a rush or you will make some mistakes. Moving slow, purposeful, and deliberate will help you not make mistakes and not get confused. Good luck :-)
You can do modified Military Press by sitting on floor facing leg lift and position knees under pads. With straight bar attached to lower cable, lift bar overhead. You may need to lower back slightly.
I bought this gym because of this video last week, everything was great but the leg press/ sing the ankle strap is almost impossible. I used only one weight and it was extremely hard to lift
@happymedontcry yes..very true. Same with mine. It is very hard but if you use only one or two weights, it is not impossible. If it feels impossible then perhaps you should make sure all of the cables are lined up properly. But you are right...it is very hard.
I put this together yesterday and it wasn't too bad. I love everything other than the low pulley. It doesn't work very good for preacher curling because the stop rubs against the metal cable guard. Other than that, it's great. High pulley, chest fly, chest press, leg extension... all work great. I'll have to buy some dumbells or a curl bar for more effective preacher curls.
@busymavado12 Hahah, desk =). It's a preacher pad for preacher curls. You can buy that attachment for the XRS30 for $30.00. I bought the XRS30 and the preacher pad all together for $230.00 so it comes out cheaper than the XR45 and it has more weights (280 lbs max resistance I believe). I'll be picking it up tomorrow from Walmart and will be interested to see what all the hype is about when it comes to assembly.
@TheHitAndKill Move slow and deliberately. Do one thing at a time. Follow the steps given to you in the diagrams. Expect to take all day. Don't rush. If you followed the directions...some parts do seem a little awkward but the cable are simple if you don't let it overwhelm you.
@GlockNinja not what I ask but ok. Got any recent videos of urself after using this machine for 2 years? A picture of any changes?I ask cause I wanna know if it's made you bigger.
It's only $250 now but how's the quality of it so far? I'm looking at getting it in a few months when i move. If I use it 30 minutes every day how much weight would I loose every week?
@MegaDeathwarrant If you use light weight settings maybe a few pounds. But this machine is mainly for strength and muscle build. But since muscle burns calories ...fat burning may occur. :-)
@deleonericjohn24 Its about 210lbs of resistance but I think the weights all equal about 80 pounds. I might be wrong..but I know its not a lot...but the resistance is 210lbs max. The noise is from the weights moving up and down the rail / tubes and the cables moving through the pullies.
Cool! I bought one from my neighbor without the manual or instructions on how to use it.
So it took me a while to understand it's uses.
This video gave me an idea about how it works, thanks!
I've read the other comments that this machine may not be for body building, but would it do any good on giving me a muscular body and lose sufficient weight??
-
And why don't the Weight Bars have a print on them that says how much they weight? I don't know if I put them in right order.
@TheMegaJuniorC To lose weight..it is probably better to use very light weights with more reps. and add in a walk or jogging on the treadmill or outside. To build a muscular frame, I would imagine you need to eat a lot of protein and lift heavier weights. :-)
Great machine for the money! I bought in Jan and have lost 25lbs since i started working out on the machine. Would approve for anyone looking to get in shape and stay fit. Great vid.
@dbocca07 thanks a lot. 25lbs is a lot of weight. Good for you. I think it is just as important to build strength as it is to lose weight. I think with men, losing fat is good but gaining strength and some muscle definition is important as well. With women, I recommend very light weights and a lot of repetitions. I'm not a health expert but I did sleep at a Holiday Day Express last night. LOL
@crystosis I think it will be a bit of a squeeze at your height. Go to Dicks, Sears, and other department stores that carry gym equipment...even if they don't carry this exact model, try out the cheapest and smallest one they have and see how it feels. If those feel okay, then Gold Gym is not that much different.
@GlockNinja I think this is made for teenagers, women, and smaller adult males. For serious body building, I think free weights and bigger machines are in order.
I should get mine tomorrow and looking forward to picking it up at Walmart paid 249+ tax that is it! not a bad price, plus will complement my AbGlider that I recommend and my BullyXtreme4 that completes everything I need plus my Bike for outdoor activity!
@RealTallWolf1 If you are looking to do body building with it, you will be disappointed. Although its not impossible to shape your body into a muscular build with it, it would take a lot of effort. But I've heard you can build a very lean muscular body just doing push ups. But anyway, this machine is great for building strength and working your major muscles. I think you will like it. Good luck putting it together. Putting it together right makes it work a lot better.
@GlockNinja I wouldn't buy a home gym for body building. This is for rehabilitating a bad knee and shoulder. My concern is at 6'-8" tall whether or not the seat to top height is concerned. Difficult to purchase something when no one in my town has a display to check out, so you have to buy by faith.
@bw2182 Anytime. If you use it regularly, you will notice getting stronger. Even if you only use it about 15 to 20 minutes every other day. It is still better than doing nothing.
I am a 5 ft. 3 in. woman and concerned about the being too short for the equipment. Are parts of the equipment (seat, butterfly piece, preacher pad) adjustable for different heights?
@suelam0 No. It is not adjustable. I am 5ft 8in tall. I do not see you having any problems. My wife and mother in-law are 5'5 and 5'6, and they do not have any troubles. I think if you sat on a cushion or pad, I do not see you having problems. Its actually built for smaller people, I think.
would be nice if you could add another 100 pounds to what the gym has although if it didnt mention anything in the instruction manual about adding additional wieght, its PROBABLY not possible.
@zombone3535 I do not do the cleaning in my house. But the vacuum cleaner we have is only 5lbs and although it is still exercise, I do not think it will build strength like weight training.
@CajCoo for upstairs? yes.....it makes a clanking sound...but not all may do that. It may also depend on how well you put it together. If you live in Apartment, I would get something like bowflex...very quiet.
Don't do the lat pull downs (what you called military press) behind your head its bad for your neck, always do in front of your head. Thanks for the video demo though,that machine is noisy as all get out.
Just had mine delivered Tuesday and I love it! Great machine for the price and like you said,it doesn't take much space.I listen to music while I'm working out so the noise from the machine is not a negative for me.I bought a treadmill a few month ago and that was one of the best investments I have ever done.Lost over 60lbs.
I am completely dissatisfied with this machine! You're supposed to be able to do several leg exercises using the lower pulley; however, unless you are able to initially lift 46 to 57 pounds or more, forget it! That's per the pro I had assemble it, the manual and a tech I called about this problem. The weights are not 10 pounds as stated in the comments. The problem is the design of the machine and therefore is not correctable. If u are working upper body or you can lift that much, you're fine.
@only1thedyb You are right about the leg lift exercises. They are very difficult. But if you take the pin out you will be left to lift the very bare minimum and you should be able to do some leg exercise no matter how much of a beginner you are. Unless of course if you have a disability or you are considerably of age.
@GlockNinja Hi GlockNinja no this is not related to the leg extension part of the machine where there is a pin. I'm talking about the lower pulley system with the chain where you are supposed to be able to do several of the exercises. I'm a fit woman who has been exercising for over a year now. I just can't lift 46 to 57 pounds at this point.

@popactor I made the video at last minute. I was not working out. Just wanted to demo the thing. The such glasses is like the same reason some wrestlers wear masks. To keep people from recognizing me.
@arceisiah I looked at the weights and they are not marked. Total weight is 81 pounds. But the resistance way higher because I can barely budge the Max setting.
Thanks for your videos on the XR-45. I just finished setting it up. The instructions are straighforward UNTIL the cables comes into place. I had to watch your video to know how that the cable harnesses in the back hang. I'll have to see how the machine holds up. But right off the bat, it seems that the cover that goes over the plates maybe unnecessary as it slams into the weights and this is where most of the noise comes from. Thanks again though, your videos helped.
Thanks so much for the quick reply. I had read a review from another lady who said it was 46 pounds and I knew that would be too much for me to start with, so thanks again.
Hey Glock, i ordered mine about 4 days ago cant wait to use it, looks like it was a pretty good buy especially for $277 =D. I think we should take some before and after pictures and compete
good for you. I hope you get a lot of use out of it. I slowed down because I'm so busy with Youtube and responding to viewers. But when I was working out with it regularly it was nice. I actually got some muscle mass and I felt better. I'll have to get back into it. :-)
Thanks Glock, I never new you can do this much workouts on it. Wow, I sure will get one. Also it looks pretty smooth to me, not perfect but it's fine.
Nice one glock. I may get something like this myself when I move to a bigger place. I had something that was a bit cheaper in 1994 - it was OK, but didn't feel very elastic compared to the ones at the gym. Looks like things have moved on in the last 15 years.

@Msherman968 10 pounds per bar. 8 bars so totally of 80lbs but you can order more weights.

@GlockNinja if want the full specs, go to Walmart's homepage and look it up under sport, fitness and exercise section.

Thanks for your videos on the XR-45. I just finished setting it up. The instructions are straighforward UNTIL the cables comes into place. I had to watch your video to know how that the cable harnesses in the back hang. I'll have to see how the machine holds up. But right off the bat, it seems that the cover that goes over the plates maybe unnecessary as it slams into the weights and this is where most of the noise comes from. Thanks again though, your videos helped.

Thanks so much for the quick reply. I had read a review from another lady who said it was 46 pounds and I knew that would be too much for me to start with, so thanks again.

@pugpom My 70 year old mother in law works out on it...I don't see you having any problems.

Can you tell me what is the least amount of weight that can be used. I am not strong and just starting out.

Hey Glock, i ordered mine about 4 days ago cant wait to use it, looks like it was a pretty good buy especially for $277 =D. I think we should take some before and after pictures and compete

good for you. I hope you get a lot of use out of it. I slowed down because I'm so busy with Youtube and responding to viewers. But when I was working out with it regularly it was nice. I actually got some muscle mass and I felt better. I'll have to get back into it. :-)

It comes with about 270lbs of weights. I think you can add more but not sure where you would order it. Perhaps from Gold's Gym.

Thanks Glock, I never new you can do this much workouts on it. Wow, I sure will get one. Also it looks pretty smooth to me, not perfect but it's fine.

Nice one glock. I may get something like this myself when I move to a bigger place. I had something that was a bit cheaper in 1994 - it was OK, but didn't feel very elastic compared to the ones at the gym. Looks like things have moved on in the last 15 years.

Thanks. Its not as smooth as the ones you will find at the gym but it will give you a good work out. I like it.
