Parallettes (Optionally, Push-Up Bars)

Parallettes have many advantages for push exercises, such as push-ups and handstands. They can also be used for beginner Bench Dips. They minimize the risk of injury by reducing joint strain, particularly on the wrists. Their slightly raised grips also allow for a deeper Push-Up, resulting in better gains and a larger chest. For beginners, they allow for easier Incline Push-Ups. There are generally 4 types of Parallettes:

  • High Parallettes
  • Medium Parallettes
  • Low and Long Parallettes
  • Push-Up Bars or Mini Parallettes

We also have reviews of specific high-end brands, like a comparison of all GORNATION Parallettes, the great value-for-money Pullup & Dip Parallettes and the best wooden Gorletic Parallettes.

Dip Bars

Dips are essential to developing your arms, but a set of good Dip Bars is far more versatile than just doing Dips. You can do core exercises, ab exercises, planches, handstands, push-ups, and more if you have a set of quality Dip Bars. We have many reviews on the best Dip Bars like:
