The Travel features a polycarbonate plastic alloy (the same material used in bullet proof glass) and supports users up to 300 lbs. Moves with the natural rotation of your arms to engage more muscles and reduce joint strain. Each handle snaps securely into a non-slip base. Perfect Pushup Mobile Unit comes in a zippered neoprene case and stores flat so it's easy to stash in your briefcase, backpack, or office drawer. Includes Power Travel Workout Cards that fit in a special inside pocket.

Perfect Pushup Travel-Not bad at all
Just like its larger sibling, the Perfect Pushup, the Perfect Pushup Travel is intended to intensify your pushup routine, and assist in the targeting of additional muscles during said routine. The device also prevents wear and tear on your wrist muscles by allowing the hands to rotate during a pushup (in the same fashion one would during a punch, or proper dumbbell press).
Now, compared to the Perfect Pushup (standard version), the Travel version is indeed compact and folds up neatly into a neoprene bag the size of a hardcover novel; fits perfectly into the accessory pocket on my laptop bag. It does what the standard version does but not quite as well. The standard version is made of metal, and has handles that are farther from the ground. This means the standard version gives you a slightly tougher workout (only slightly so) due to the extended range of motion available, and it spins a bit easier for the same reason. That said, the travel version does get the job done and is better than anything else on the market for its purpose. It's got a top notch build quality (though not all metal) and works as intended.
If you are fit and do pushups regularly you should still be able to keep to within 5-10 of your normal pushup numbers at first, but you will definitely feel a new and serious burn in your chest and triceps. Over time your pushup numbers without the device will increase as well.
While I like the standard version a bit better, I end up using the travel version alot more and am very satisfied with its performance. I would definitely recommend it.
Perfect Design
This is such an excellent design. It's compact and easily transportable with the base laying flat together and the handles snapping into the sides. It really should make Popular Mechanics Best Products of 2007 list. I'm over 240lbs and these plastic handles hold my weight and effort with no problem. I'd give it 5 Stars but I want to leave room for improvement like releasing this model in Aluminium, Titanium or Carbon Fiber. As is, they take up little room and weight in my travel bag/backpack/messenger bags and the design is easy on my wrists.
Great Product and Easy to Use!
I recently bought the standard version Perfect Pushup and love them. I travel nearly every week and usually do pushups in my hotel rooms, as most fitness centers in hotels are a joke. I bought the Perfect Pushup Travel this week during my travels and have used them two or three times and I am very impressed. Design and quality are quite good. I too was worried about stability and handling of my size and weight as I am 6'5" and weigh in at 270lbs...No Problems! The only issue I have encountered is with the hotel carpet being really plush as the rotation is hindered slightly, but not enough to stop movement. Overall, I give these an A+.
