Amazon.com Product Description
Efficiently strengthen and tone your upper body and core muscles with this pair of Harbinger padded-handle push-up bars. The delta-shaped bars sit flat against the floor as you perform push-ups, creating a stable training platform and evenly distributing the weight between your hands. Handle push-ups are especially ideal for people who want to strengthen their core, as they make it very hard to "cheat" by compensating with other muscle groups. Specific details include a polyethylene construction, padded foam grips, and nonskid rubber pads for traction during use. Also great for reverse push-ups, each handle push-up bar can support up to 350 pounds of load weight.

5 out of 5 stars A solid push-up bar   October 14, 2009
Malia Meiser
I am very impressed with the the push-up bars. Don't expect it to do push-ups for you, but the product better isolates the muscles. The bars are well made and seem very strong. Being 265lbs, it means quite a bit when I say that they seem durable.

Charles T. Tucker (Las Cruces, NM)
These are great. I like the fact that they are flat across the top and not rounded like other push up bars. I can use my palms on these to get a great range of motion, that I could not with the round bars. They are plastic but I am 230lbs and they hold me just fine.

I've had these bars for about 5 weeks for use with P90X; I had to stop the routine because of the wrist pain I would get after performing just a few push ups. With these bars that problem is completely gone, I can do all the push ups I need. Now for the product itself;

Pros:
-If you have wrist issues while doing push ups; these solve that problem
-Solid construction*
-Do not slip or slide

I haven't had any huge problems with these bars after just over a month, no rolls, slips, or cracks.

Cons (nitpicking):
-If held incorrectly the handles will pinch and make my hand go numb, but it's a matter of finding the "sweet spot"
-*While they have held up perfectly fine; I am still not completely confident in the bars, there is almost like a grain to the gray plastic where you hold the bars and it seems as though its a huge crack waiting to happen.

The pads are rather wide and make it a little awkward to hold, but the alleviation from wrist pain greatly outweighs any of the problems with this product. A little experience with them and you get used to holding them and avoiding any pinching or numbing. I don't know how I ever did push ups without these things.

I ordered these as I have tendinitis in my wrist and wanted to try and take some of the pressure off when I do push-ups. So far I have used the bars probably 15 or 20 times and thus far they seem to be working pretty well.
