I've seen the commercials for that machine. I don't know if it will really do very much to increase pushup effectiveness. Have you done pushups the old fashioned way?

 

[New2Town]

I have done push-ups for a while and that kind of stuff, and I lift constantly, and I have a body that women always compliment on. I got the push up pros as a surprise and I must say they gave my back a hell of a workout yesterday when I did about 50 push ups with them. They are recommended.

Got some - they work great for me! More depth and intensity from them.

Push-ups hurt my wrist so I've always thought something like this might be helpful for me.

check out the perfect push up. it has better reviews than the push up pro.

Hmm, I might check this out lol.
But most of those things on TV are a bunch of BS. I remember there was this golden wrist band which was suppose to give you "more energy throughout the day." Not. lol.

What do the reviews say?

What do the reviews say?

Search both on amazon.com - I do that for every product I buy.

Their reviews aren't that good when you're comparing two products because few if any of the reviewers have tried both products; they can just tell you what they like or dislike about the one they purchased.

Here's a video by a guy who has tried both of them.

It looks as if the major difference with the construction of each is that the Perfect Pushup uses heaver material in it's construction and has a thicker padded handle. The Pushup Pro is made of a lighterweight plastic which still holds up well and has a handle that is still padded but not as thick. There's more than a few home remedies that can be done to beef up the padding if it's really necessary.

Another thing is the value for the price. The Perfect Pushup ranges in cost from $40-50 while the Pushup Pro costs $20. Also, workout plans do not come with the base model of the Perfect Pushup, they're an additional $10. Workout plans come with the Pushup Pro.

So it's a choice on whether someone is willing to pay at least twice as much for a product which is heavier and was designed by a Navy Seal or buy a product which does the same thing, weighs less (good if you travel) and costs half as much. Oh yeah, it was designed by the guy who holds the world's record for amount of pushups done within a set amount of time.

Ammendment:
I just found out that there is another (basic) version of the Perfect Pushup. It looks more like the Pushup Pro. It doesn't have the beefed up metal handles but the padding is still pretty good. It comes with a workout chart and costs the same as the Pushup Pro.

We know about those Navy Seals. Jessie "The Body" Ventura was one who became a wrestler and actually became a Governor!

 

[I-tallionStallion]

worst gift i got on christmas........UGH!!! I want to bench press not do pushups. I FVCKING hate PUSHUPS LOL

 

[Joe The Homophobe]

do you guys recommend the walmart version? is there a difference between the 40 dollar version you see on tv and the basic seen on stores?

 

[I-tallionStallion]

Yeah they both suck for maxium muscle gain...start weightlifting lol

 

[kabatura]

Joe The Homo...phobe, just playing. Im sure there is not much of a difference in the Wal Mart besides much easier to return if they break. They may be made side by side in the same plant.

 

[Joe The Homophobe]

are there any other stores that sell the $20 perfect pushup? I checked kmart and they are all out, checked sears and a bunch of other store sites and I don't see any other stores that carry this item for $20 like kmart does.

I use a $5 ab wheel. It works effectively because I throw in a few sets during a lifting session and because it's just downright brutal. Most people hate it because it's hard, boo hoo. I can feel it in my abs, lats, pecs and triceps. As far as push-ups go, I do normal and clap, they help with muscular endurance and with reaction/athletic performance.

 

[kickureface]

ppl in my dorm have them. one perfect and one pro, rofl. i've tried them, and they are harder than the real pushup, but cannot compare to the bench press. i believe it has something to do with stabliziation as well as different parts of the pec being fired because of rotation and thus flaring of the elbows

 

[newstart]

I just bought the Perfect Push-up at Walmart for $20. I didn't expect much, but I was actually surprised. They're much more effective than standard push-ups.
