PM3 Monitor

A good training partner helps you stick with a program and reach your goals. We've designed the PM3 (Performance Monitor 3) to be the ideal, smart electronic training partner… and it is standard on every Model D!

Each PM3 comes with a removable LogCard that records your workouts and tracks your progress. You can also use it to transfer your workout data to your PC or Mac.

The Model D includes a power generation feature, which greatly extends the life of the PM3’s batteries (two D cell batteries) by providing operating power to the PM3 while you are rowing.
