It looks perfect for doing ten different types of push-up.

I think they are trash (yes, I've tried it out), but I know a few people who swear by them. I did not feel any added benefit from these twisty handles.
Some people get wrist pain with push ups, so I guess this would help them out.

They won't give any benefit at all compared to regular push ups.

ON an completely unrelated story, I've retired the fist push ups for a while. Anyone ever dislocated their knuckle doing them unwrapped?

For years i have done the typical pressup, shoulder width hand placement and palms on the floor.
Then i read that doing them on knuckles is a lot more compliant given better natural form and less risk of wrist injury.
So i do them on knuckles.
Those bars arent needed.

they are good as they mimic the turning of the wrist at the end of a punch

i've seen an infomercial for that product before. dont know how effective it is compared to a regular push up but i know if you place your feet on a flight or two of stairs it offers more resistance and makes it more challenging.

I do my push-ups on my knuckles.
It hurts my wrists too much doing them on the flats of the hand palms.
Might give these things a go though.

The way I see it :
It's not useless but it's not necessary. It will definately remove some pressure from your joints.

THeres no way you'd stick to using a little handle bar for your push ups. I couldn't imagine anything more uncomfortable.

As far as push ups go stick to normal ones but as far as sports orientated training goes I would suspect the turning is very good for boxers.

Nah their not needed, normal push-ups are fine, just do them different ways. wide, close in to the body, diamond , claps etc. if you've got weak joints just wrap your wrists up and get on with it. that, and loads of chin ups. i fucking love chin ups/pull ups!
