Quick answer
Use the TRX Push-It handles to perform elevated push-ups, ab rollouts, and pike presses. The domed base lets your wrists rotate naturally, reducing strain while increasing the challenge.
Why choose TRX Push-It over standard push-up handles?
Standard push-up handles lock your wrists in one position. The Push-It's domed base encourages natural arm rotation during push-ups, which can reduce wrist discomfort. The soft grip rubber handle also eases pressure on your wrists.
The lightweight aluminum build makes it portable enough to take to the gym, park, or office. It's not a full suspension trainer, but it turns bodyweight moves into advanced upper body challenges.
What moves can you do with Push-It?
Beyond push-ups, you can use Push-It for ab rollers, yoga flows, and pike presses. The domed base adds instability, forcing your core and stabilizers to work harder. It's a versatile tool for home gyms or travel workouts.
Step-by-step: Using TRX Push-It for upper body strength
- 1. Set up the handles on a stable surface: Place the two Push-It handles on the floor, shoulder-width apart. The domed base should face up. Ensure the surface is non-slip (a yoga mat or carpet works well). Check that both handles sit flat and don't rock before starting.
- 2. Grip the handles and assume push-up position: Grasp the rubber handles firmly. Lower into a standard push-up position with your body in a straight line from head to heels. Your hands should be under your shoulders. Keep your core engaged to prevent sagging hips.
- 3. Perform a controlled push-up with natural wrist rotation: Lower your chest toward the handles, allowing your wrists to rotate naturally as the domed base tilts. Push back up to start. Avoid locking your elbows at the top. If you feel wrist pain, reduce the range of motion or check your grip.
- 4. Progress to advanced variations (ab roller, pike press): For an ab roller, place both hands on one handle and roll out. For a pike press, walk your feet closer to your hands and push your hips up, then lower your head toward the floor. Start with 3 sets of 8-12 reps on basic push-ups before attempting advanced moves.
- 5. Cool down and clean the handles: After your set, wipe the rubber handles with a damp cloth. Store them in a dry place. The aluminum frame is durable but avoid prolonged exposure to moisture. Regular cleaning extends the life of the rubber grip.
