the ad is on tv here now and they look sillier evertime i see it...

try push ups with a towell under each hand (scrunched up0 and see if it does what they say on the ad...it's the exact same thing as the product

husband had purchased the perfect push up for me a while back and the boxed stayed in garage for months. I posted a thread a while back about toning arms and I was told to do push ups. Well, as a result of some wrist injuries as a child and being a typist for 5 years, push ups put a lot of strain on wrist. To be honest using the perfect push up or dumbells is the only way I can do push ups and not feel such a strain. I have to admit for me do the perfect push up with the twist is more challenging than doing them on dumbells. But, if a person doesn't have problems with their wrist then they wouldn't have a need for the product and would probably find it useless. But for me it works, taking that pressure off wrist.

I personally think the perfect push up is great. I don't think it is any more effective than a regular push up, but for me, a regular push up ALWAYS created pain in right shoulder. With the perfect push up, I have no pain at all and can do many push ups. :lol:

I personally own this item and it works very well. I seen results within a week, felt results the same day.

gator - you're masking the problem which is the shoulder so get that fixed...if push ups of any sort hurt your shoulder then you're in trouble somewhere

thingosexual - i bet if you did proper push ups you'd have got the same effect

I use these, I mix it up every week between normal pushups and using perfect pushups to warm up pre-workout, I can do more normal pushups than perfect pushups. And I finish with a dropset at the end of workouts (chair, floor, knees) where the sweat would run down back like a waterfall. OK maybe not quite that much.

Also you can do many different exercise like inverted rows etc and they look much more durable.
I have to agree blast straps or jungle-gym would be far more useful.
