Product Description
The Perfect Pushup puts a new spin on one of the oldest exercises, the pushup. Invented by someone who knows a lot about pushups, former U.S. Navy SEAL, Alden Mills, the Perfect Pushup's rotating handles allow your arms to rotate naturally when you do pushups the same way they do when you throw a punch or press up a dumb bell. This unique feature accelerates results by engaging more muscles in the arms, chest, shoulders, and back. It also helps reduce strain on wrists and elbows, and helps to stabilize and strengthen the shoulder joint by engaging the scapular and rotator cuff muscles. You will notice the comfort and effectiveness of the Perfect Pushup on the very first try!Includes free instructional DVD and full color poster that show perfect form along with a customizable 21 day workout planner based in SEAL 2 minute drills that works for any fitness level - from beginner through Olympic athlete.

 Impressive Product April 20, 2007
36 out of 36 found this review helpful
I recieved this product about 3 weeks ago and am impressed with how it works. I used to be an above average wrestler in the highly competitive state of Iowa, so over the years I learned many pushup and workout techniques to keep the body fit and strong. I used to treat my body as a hobby, using pushups and dumbbells as my main source of lifting and staying in shape. Over the past year, I've put on a little weight and lost some tone just like quite a few people do once the final years of school, careers, and family consume the majority of your time. Recently, I am looking to get back to old form. I saw the Perfect Pushup on television and was intrigued by the equipment. I also did a little research via the internet to see what information I could find on the product. I wondered how doing pushups with the Perfect Pushup compared to doing pushups normally, and wondered whether I could get into shape faster with them and whether they worked. I can tell the difference between the results from the Perfect Pushup and that of doing normal, flat on the floor pushups. So far I am pleased. Getting acclimated to the twisting motion of the Perfect Pushup is probably the hardest part, especially if you are used to doing pushups flat on the floor. But, after a couple sets the twisting motion becomes a natural movement. Doing pushups on the Perfect Pushup tends to be a little difficult for the first week because the twisting movement really targets the whole upper body and some of your abs. I felt a little soreness a few hours after doing a set of twenty. For the first week, fight through the soreness and realize the pushups using the Perfect Pushup are a little tougher . Try going back to normal, flat on the floor pushups and you'll be amazed on how many you can do. You feel like you have to do 100 before getting a burn. I haven't done a vigorous workout with the Perfect Pushup yet because of a busy schedule, but I try to use them for about 5-10 minutes a night. So far, everyone else and I can see I look thinner and more toned. I think I look more toned in my chest and upper abs so I am excited to develop a more routine workout that lasts 30 to 45 minutes much like I used to do as a wrestler to see how fast I see results. I'm so impressed with this product that I recommend it to everyone including friends and family. Some friends have stopped by the house and saw them lying on the floor. Of course like a lot of people they think it is another workout fad until they try it. I have a few friends that live and die in the weight room. They teased me a bit then became pretty impressed once they decided to do a set of pushups. The burn and muscle fatigue comes quicker than most expect meaning the Perfect Pushup works even with those accustomed to working out on a regular basis. One thing that really impresses me is how easy the Perfect Pushup allows you to isolate arms and chest muscles with ease doing one-handed pushups.
Absolutely essential if you have an elbow joint injury (or if you want to prevent injury) July 25, 2007
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
A couple of years ago I had an elbow injury. Although it healed, whenever I did pushups (either regular pushups or with pushup bars), I would hear a "click" from that elbow. Although painless, I knew the clicking couldn't be good.
With the perfect pushup, the rotation while doing the pushup made the clicking sound go away.
So if you have an elbow injury (or just want to prevent injury or wear and tear), I highly recommend it.
This device also has the nicest padding on the handles that I have ever seen in a pushup bar.
By the way, the way the pushup is performed using this device is similar to throwing a lunge punch in Tae Kwon Do (using the natural rotation of the fist). This device should be required in Tae Kwon Do training (and probably many other martial arts).
Best pushup handles out there! May 23, 2007

This is my third set of pushup handles, and they're the first ones that actually make me want to do pushups! I love being able to spin my hands during the movement to minimize pain in my wrists and shoulders. They are also very stable and work on my soft carpet, which is great!
Really does take push-ups to a whole new level! July 12, 2007

Our son is in excellent shape and push-ups are a part of his usual routine. But this simple product, designed by a Navy Seal, really does make the usual push-up more challenging and allows the user to vary his or her routine quite a bit. By the way, you can find free workouts online for this, at various video sites, or you can buy one of the DVDs or cards listed below.
One warning: Because this DOES allow your arms to rotate, you might consider having someone "spot" you the first time, as I've seen inexperienced users lose their balance or have their arms collapse. This is a rarity and should NOT happen if you are in control of your body, have decent balance and are used to push-ups.

I don't go to a gym, so I own a lot of different kinds of fitness equipment. I know that most made for TV products are superfluous at best, and usually are just useless. However, this a great product. Well-made of sturdy materials, it lets you perform pus-ups the natural way (it allows for your hands to rotate). Everyone knows that push ups is a great exercise, however, most people don't enjoy doing them. This product can help get motivated, plus they offer nice customer service support.
Well, this is not some miracle product that is going to turn you into a bodybuilder, but, if you think its going get motivated, buy it!
