Superior Push-Ups with Tony Horton Power Stands

Take Your Push Ups to the Next Level

If you know anything about fitness, you know how effective and worthwhile a good push-up workout is. Pushups are different from any other arm or chest workout because they do so much more. When you do a pushup, you are engaging every single muscle from the tip of your toes to your neck. This takes incredible core strength and total body fitness. It’s truly amazing how effective and simple this one workout move is. But, what if there was a way to make them even better? There is—and it’s called the Tony Horton Power Stands.

Perfect for P90X and More


The Tony Horton Power Stands are designed to accompany P90X program. They were created by Tony Horton, the same trainer that walks you through each of the P90X workouts. He’s no beginner or no simple figure-head for these workouts, he’s been around for some time and knows a thing or two about quality workouts. A celebrity fitness trainer, Horton recognized a need to improve upon the already good P90X Push-Up Stands and created the Tony Horton Power Stands as a result.

Tony Horton Power Stands Make Pushups More Comfortable


One of the best parts about this product is it reduces the strain on your wrist and hands from doing traditional pushups. If you’ve ever gone hard on the pushups, doing more than 50 a day, you likely felt them in your wrists. The Tony Horton Power Stands use simple body mechanics to develop a product that takes the pressure off your joints and puts it back on your muscles, where it belongs.

Superior Construction and Comfort


The Tony Horton Power Stands are made to stand up to time and the toughest workouts around. They have foam grips for added comfort and are designed ergonomically to eliminate strain. Like all Beachbody products, these are designed for home use but are of gym quality.

Pushups are great for your arms and your chest. But a pushup workout can also strengthen your core. Whether you are doing P90X or your own training program, pushups have an important role to play.

People have been doing push ups for years and they haven’t lost their popularity or their effectiveness. The push up is great because it engages so many different muscles and requires no equipment. It can be done virtually anywhere and it’s very easy to increase the resistance by simply changing your hand positions or elevating one end of your body. Like everything, however, there is a way to make the traditional workout move even better—with push up stands.

P90X push up stands were designed to help people get the most out of a pushup workout.
