Amazon.com Product Description
Sculpt, tone, shape, and define your upper body quickly and efficiently with Jack Zatorski's Push-Up Pro. Unlike with regular pushups--which put a lot of strain on the wrist--the Push-Up Pro encourages a more natural movement of the arms and shoulders, thus putting less stress on the wrist. Even better, the rotation movement engages more muscles than traditional pushups, creating a challenging upper body workout that delivers results within 10 days. The Push-Up Pro consists of a pair of grip handles that sit comfortably on the floor or against the wall. You simply grab the handles, place them shoulder-width apart, and start your workout. The handles will help you strengthen and tone your chest, arms, back, shoulders, abs, and more. And should you need a little structure to your workout, the Push-Up Pro comes with The Ultimate Upper Body Workout and Nutrition Guide.

There is another version of this same invention currently available. It's twice as expensive and looks bigger. Well, if you need added cushion, padding, etc., then you might want to buy that one. I got THIS one, however, and think it was well worth it. Some people might complain that the handles are not "comfortable" enough. The first session I did I thought the same thing. However you get used to that very quickly. It's like anything, it takes some getting used to. The good thing about this device is it is so simple. It takes up no space at all, and basically the work is up to you. It's definitely worth the money.

I bought this product three weeks ago, and have used it about 15 total days. After a few uses, I realized the genius of these Push-Up Pros.
First, I tried them on the floor. As a middle-aged female, who can do no more than 15 men's push-ups at a time, these tools did not make it any easier for me to do more. I was kind of disappointed, although I realized my wrists did not feel as much strain. So, I kept them in direct view of my couch, hoping to be inspired while watching television. Seeing them in front of me, I used them a few more times, on the floor with the same results.
THEN, one night I decided to try them on the wall. I placed them on the wall and proceeded to do an entire workout. It felt incredible. I put them at different levels, stretching my back, my legs, holding my weight against the wall, and doing push-ups at my leisure. The next day, I noticed improvement in the core of my body and my posture: I felt almost like an olympic swimmer. After a few weeks, I noticed the flab on my arms diminishing. My super-toned muscles of younger days are now making a comeback.
The principle of this item is simple: there are no attachments necessary, and no markings are left on your wall or flooring. It is simply a way for one to exercise against the weight of his or her own body. Ideally, this is what we all should strive for, to be able to lift and control our own body weight (call it isotonics, kinetics, or whatever you want). I recommend a day of rest between extensive workouts, to give your shoulders recovery time.
The handles could be a little more comfortable, and I believe the makers of this product will soon realize so. These are, however,completely portable, inexpensive, and not a dangerous contraption, therefore I give them a top-rating.
They work. They pump. Comfort can be corrected... January 21, 2008

They do the job well. I bought locally at Wal greens for the same cost. They don't spin as freely as the competition which I personally like. Solid as hell despite being plastic. Non-slip pads on the bottom keep it from sliding around. The included pamphlet has a basic workout and short, yet helpful eating tips. These will be easier to travel with than the competition. As for comfort...Weight gloves solve any issues with padding. Or use household sponges. Or buy bicycle grips and slice them in half. All of these ideas should save you the extra $20 you'd spend on the competition.
If you use them, they'll work. But so do normal pushups. These just feel more "natural" if such a thing exists.
Outstanding procuct, even better value! October 23, 2007

This product is well engineered, high quality and an outstanding value. I travel a lot, and this product is lightweight, fits great in my suitcase. I not only get a great workout on the road, but I use it at home when I don't have time to go to the gym. It beats out a similar product on the market that is almost twice the price. I highly recommend this item.
Solid product at a decent price. January 28, 2008

Compared to another, similar product the Push Up Pro is a great deal. They both have the same design concept, but you can get your hands on this product for about half the price. Despite the big price difference, for your money you will receive a product that is sturdy, rotates smoothly, and is comfortable on the palms of your hands. I have done standard military push ups for years, and while it took me a minute to get used the rotation this device introduces into the movement, I have found that it feels more natural and puts less strain on my joints. Its probably too early to tell (I just bought the Push Up Pro two weeks ago), but it seems to be helping me take my strength and physique to the next level. Just get it. You'll be glad you did.
