It's ok November 3, 2008 The produce it ok. I guess I didn't realize that they were made of plastic. They bend slightly when doing pushups, and if you have hard wood floors, they tend to slip a little. The bottoms aren't padded with any non-stick foam, or anything.
GoFit, fits my life. October 28, 2008 When I first started browsing for push-up bars I expected the price to be out there, but I was startled to find that it was at a rather affordable price, I am impressed with these push-up bars, i've used them everyday since they were delivered, really simple assembly, and really sturdy as well. they're gentle to sensative wrists, * best of all - due to the size and mobility of this item it's perfect for people who's live their lifes on the go* for those who arn't really sure of the difference between using these and doing push-ups; with these you can feel the burn of your muscles building, where-as with regular push-ups odds are you just feel, the burning out of your body. I would reccomend this item to anyone.
Holds up pretty well October 24, 2008 This product works really well. I had doubts that it would not hold my body but it does.
They do what they're designed to do, and they do it well. October 6, 2008 Title says it all. These WILL increase the intensity of your pushups. I can currently do about 30 old-school standard push-ups non-stop. With the bars, I can do about 12.
Only minor defect is that they flex slightly (maybe 1/8") under my 5'11" 186 lb frame, only noticeable initially after putting my weight on them. That said, they remain solid and stable throughout the workout.
They are very light, and can be taken apart and packed easily.
Note: I'm using these in my dorm room, which has a smooth floor similar to what you'd find in most Walmarts/grocery stores etc. Using them on a carpet or other surface with more traction may very well eliminate the flexing issue.
Good value, may be better out there... July 21, 2008 These are a good value for the money and should do the trick to improve your workouts. They really help take the strain off the wrists and are easy to put together and take apart for travel. However, I also own the Valeo ones and they are much better as far as sturdiness and are slightly angled toward the ground, allowing for more comfortable movement.
