I wouldn’t bother with the travel version. The original version is nearly as portable, so unless you want to carry them around in a purse (i.e. the “included travel bag,”) there’s not much reason to get the travel version.

It will work your back muscles a little, but not directly like a pull-up.

Yeah,you’re probably right.. i mean even if the Push-up pro is affordable and travel friendly i still go with Perfect Pushup(Even if I think it’s overprice.. i’m trying to get the mobile version but it’s really expensive)and it’s also a knock-off of perfect push-up. Oh,I want to ask..Does the perfect Push-up really works the back muscles?I can’t do any regular pullups right now so maybe it can help me strengthen my back too(but i’m also doing other back exercises as well)I hope and do you think the Original version is travel friendly? I want the mobile version but it’s too expensive to me right now.

@Jed

The Ultimate Push Up looks alright, but I’d still stick with the Perfect Push Up since the price isn’t much different.

Being a knock off, I highly doubt it would be better than the Perfect Push Up.

Okay,thanks and I’ll be waiting for your review if you did so =) Do you know besides the steel bearings,the difference between the Original Push up found on store and online(if they have any difference besides that)? and I’m curious,have you heard or tried “Ultimate Push up”? I saw some pictures of it on Ebay,it looks very much like the Perfect Pushup(the expensive type)but it’s cheaper and it looks pretty durable(but i’m a suspicious because it’s another “knock off”)

@Jed

I might do a full review of the Perfect Pushup sometime (I’ve been using them,) but I can say this now – it’s way more comfortable and better quality than the Push Up Pro. You can find both products for $20 in some stores, so there’s no reason not to get the Perfect Pushup.

As for hand surgery, I’ve never heard that story, but I highly doubt using these push up grips was the culprit.

Hello Levi,I’ve read some other people’s thoughts about this product and I got a bit scared when i read someone having a hand surgery because of this device and some say it’s not as durable as the Perfect Pushup.I’m wondering.. are you going to do a review on Perfect pushup or perfect pull up?

Great review. I appreciated the real world aspect of it. I also appreciated the reference to the Perfect Pushup for comparison purposes.
