What makes high-quality push-up grips and parallettes?
High quality materials
Parallettes are made from various robust materials such as wood, metal or plastic. Wood in particular, such as beech wood, offers a pleasant feel and guarantees durability and resistance. The choice of material influences the grip, stability and general training feel.
Non-slip underside for maximum safety
Most Parallettes have a non-slip underside that ensures a secure grip on different floor coverings such as tiles, carpet or parquet. This feature is crucial to avoid slipping during training and prevent injuries.
Stability for every exercise
Thanks to the sturdy construction, Parallettes provide a stable base for a variety of exercises, from push-ups to challenging movements such as handstand push-ups or planche training. The stability helps to minimize the risk of injury and focus on the correct execution of the exercise.
Ergonomic shape for training that is easy on the joints
The ergonomic design of the handles enables a natural hand and wrist position. This reduces stress on the joints and increases comfort, especially during longer training sessions. This shape also helps to control movements, which is particularly important for advanced exercises.
Compact and portable training equipment
Thanks to their compact size and lightweight design, Parallettes are easy to transport and store to save space. This makes them the ideal companion for training at home, in the gym or even outdoors.
