Decreasing Hand-width Position Improves Pushup Strength
Our pushup equipment maximizes upper body strength potential
Advancing Pushups is a pushup variation that can only be performed on the PUSHUP GRID – Pushup Training and Assessment Mat with the same reliability of hand placement for subsequent sets. The process begins with identifying a pushup position on the mat using the notches then advancing the middle fingers with palms towards the center or away from the center of the mat while performing pushups.
This pushup variation requires some degree of pushup training experience because you must reposition your hands continuously while advancing the hands. The advantage of performing these pushups when advancing your hands towards the center of the mat is strengthening the triceps gradually with every rep. The technique used may be tailored for developing strength for increasing your pushup performance. Advancing your hands also gives you an opportunity to perform a full chest workout from wide-width to close-width.

Best pushup training speed
Our pushup equipment and cadences improve pushup reliability guaranteed!
When performing pushups speed does matter. An analysis of various speeds performed during the pushup exercise revealed that when pushups were performed slowly, the number of reps performed was less than when the pushups were performed fast. Additionally, when pushups were performed slowly, the pushup duration was longer than when the pushups were performed fast. In other words, performing the pushups fast will allow your muscles to fatigue quicker than performing pushups slow.
So when should you perform the pushups slow (3 seconds per pushup), regular (1.5 seconds per pushup) or fast 1 (second per pushup)? Read more.
We also offer additional Mp3 audio pushup cadences to help increase the reliability of your pushup training.

Exclusive plyometric pushups on the PUSHUP GRID
Our pushup equipment creates challenges for very physically fit people
Plyometric pushups are often used by athletes to assist them with developing upper body muscular force and strength. Having a good understanding of which type of plyometric pushups to perform and also having variations other than the traditional ones may add greater intensity to your workout.
The pushups performed below consist of several plyometric pushup variations that can only be performed on the Pushup Training and Assessment Mat for the greatest hand placement accuracy.
When these variations are performed together, they become pushup combinations. These combinations are designed to develop your core, upper body force, and strength. Additionally, performing these pushup combinations will make it difficult for you to reach a plateau. The pushup mat’s design allows you to create your own pushup patterns. The cadence used for this video was Dynamic Fast at approximately 1 second per pushup. Read more
