Frequently asked questions
Parallettes are great for any bodyweight exercise where you'd normally put your hands on the ground. This tool gives you a natural grip that's better for your wrists. You can do exercises like push-ups, dips, L-sits, V-sits, handstands, planks, planches, tuck holds, shoot-throughs, pike push-ups, mountain climbers, and pretty much any move where you need a solid, elevated hand placement.
The choice between Prime, Range, and Edge depends on your workout needs:
Prime: This model is the all-rounder with medium handle length, offering a good balance between stability and range of motion. It's great for those who want to practice a wide variety of exercises, from basic push-ups and dips to more advanced moves like handstands and planches. Choose Prime if you have a diverse workout routine that includes both dynamic and static exercises.
Range: With the longest handles, Range is the stability champ. It's perfect for athletes who need a wider base for moves that require a lot of balance, like handstand push-ups or advanced L-sits. It’s also a good fit if you're taller or have a wider frame, as the extra handle length can accommodate a broader reach.
Edge: Edge is the smallest and lightest, making it ideal for people who are always on the move or have limited space. It’s a solid choice for those who travel frequently but don’t want to skip their calisthenics routine. Despite its size, it still offers the same high-quality materials and construction as the larger models, just in a more compact form.
Yes, parallettes are suitable for all levels, including beginners. They can help reduce strain on the wrists and improve form, making them a great tool to start with.
Yes, the parallettes can support a ton of weight—up to 3700 pounds (about 1678 kilograms) per pair, which is around 16,464 Newtons of force. This isn't just a rough estimate; it's a tested and confirmed figure that proves their strength.
Wooden handles age better than plastic ones, which can break, and they're a better choice than metal, which can be slippery and heavier than needed. The wooden bars provide a firm grip, don't slip, and won't weigh you down.
No, the parallettes come with anti-slip patches, so they should be stable on most surfaces. However, for best results, use them on a flat, stable surface.
While they're not specifically designed for rehabilitation, the natural wrist position when using parallettes may reduce pain and aid in strengthening the wrists.
For the wooden handles, just wipe them with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then dry right away.
Avoid harsh chemicals on the steel base; a damp cloth should suffice to keep it clean. If the metal base starts peeling and gets rusty, scrape off the rust and spray a new layer of protective coating to keep them in top shape.
Grav Parallettes (and all other Gravgear products) come with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. This means if there's a problem with the materials or the way they're put together that isn't due to normal wear and tear, you should be able to get a replacement or repair.
If your parallettes wobble slightly, don't worry-it's not a defect.
Our extensive testing shows this minor movement enhances durability by preventing the wooden handle from becoming too rigid.
