Now this is a novel gadget to say the least. I bought the power push up with the intention to add weighted push ups to my training regimen. What really caught my eye regarding this product was it's adjustable resistance that could go from 20 lbs to 240 lbs. But in all honesty, this product was good for everything else but push ups. It was very awkward to use. I eventually got the hang of it but wasn't too impressed. The push ups were challenging for sure but the sponge handle bars put incredible amounts of stress between my finger and the thumb area. However, the power push up 2 is a great piece of equipment for any other exercise. I have used it successfully for curls, triceps extension, chest press, rows, military, lat pull downs, dead lifts, 1 leg step ups etc. I usually use it as a warm up and to strengthen my tendons/ligaments. I used to have shoulder and elbow problems but after using this for a few months, I feel a lot stronger in my joints.
For $30, it's not that bad. I have no regrets buying this product and I still use it everyday. I recommend buying extra tubing because over time the wear and tear will stretch out the tubes.
