Push-up Stands

A Push-up Bar is a raised handle device that allows push-ups to be performed with neutral wrist alignment, reducing wrist extension stress while enabling chest, shoulder, and triceps strengthening. The ergonomic handles position the hands in a neutral handshake position, eliminating the painful wrist extension required for traditional floor push-ups—making them essential for patients with wrist pathology, carpal tunnel syndrome, or post-operative wrist conditions. For the physical therapist and occupational therapist, push-up bars enable patients with wrist arthritis, distal radius fracture recovery, or chronic wrist pain to perform essential upper extremity pushing exercises without exacerbating wrist symptoms—maintaining chest, shoulder, and triceps strength critical for pushing, lifting, and transferring activities. The elevated handles also allow for a greater range of motion, increasing muscle activation in the pectoralis major, anterior deltoid, and triceps brachii while maintaining proper joint alignment. Constructed from durable steel or aluminum with non-slip rubber bases for floor stability, push-up bars support body weight safely during dynamic exercise. For the patient recovering from shoulder injury, wrist pathology, or deconditioning, push-up bars provide a safe, effective tool for rebuilding upper body strength, improving functional mobility, and supporting return to independent living.
