Editorial Review: Delta shaped base provides a stable training platform and evenly distributes weight during lifting
They do what they are supposed to. 4 out of 5
I can't say that I have any complaints about them. I picked them up about 1/2 way through my 90 days of P90x and I have to admit they do making doing pushups easier and allows you to go deeper. I may pick up a larger set for the next round, but wouldn't have any issues about buying another set of these if I needed them.
A little disappointed 2 out of 5
I am currently attempting to complete P90X and bought these push-up bars after reading a few reviews. I am disappointed with them in two areas. One, they are not nearly as comfortable as I would have thought. When using them they dig into the heal of my hand. These are the first push-up bars I've ever used, so maybe this is normal, but the handle is not completely round and so has a corner (all be it not a sharp one) that can dig into one's palm. Two, when using them in a wide push-up position, they have rolled on me. The base is not wide enough to adequately stabilize wide push-ups. I don't use them for this particular exercise any more. However, I do use them for standard and military push-ups. It is still nicer to use these than to use the floor. More range of motion and not nearly as much stress on my wrists.
Does its job, does it well! 5 out of 5
These little guys work great and do what they're made to do. They're the perfect high above the ground (I'm not a fan of really high pushup bars). As for the people who say they roll on you, you're not doing your pushup correctly. Military, wide, whatever, all pushups should be done with force being pushed straight downward. If your force is at an angle, they will roll, which will teach you to do a proper pushup.
For the price these little guys it's a real no-brainer. Small, light, durable, and the iron-like shape of them allow you to do diamond pushups with them as well. My only complaint is that I wish handles were solid and didn't have the hollow bottom (hard to explain, but you'll know when I'm talking about then you use them for the 1st time). It just feels funny, but you get use to it. All-in-all, awesome product. My productivity with pushups went through the roof and all wrist pain is gone.
push ups made easier 5 out of 5
These things work great! I was skeptical at first, but when I got these and first tried them, I was amazed. It really takes a lot of strain off of your wrists, and make getting up and down so much easier. What a great product! Sturdy and well made too!
Great product @ this price range 5 out of 5
This is a fantastic product! I have used over 10 different push-up bars over the years, including "the perfect push-up", and i would have to say that for quality, comfort, and durability, it ranks in my top 3 bars Ive ever used. When it comes to over all product, i would say that it is probably my favorite, simply because of the cost. The ONLY downside to this product is that is is very low to the ground...which is actually a good thing for most people, however, i like to be elevated to get more moment with the push-up. So overall i would give this product and company a 9 out of 10.
