Cons: you cannot hang clothes on them when not in use
That's it. I'm not getting them. Exactly why rings are superior.

Those GoFit KB's are shaped weird IMO. The hand is way too wide...makes a lot of the KB routines kinda awkward. Not to mention the biggest they carry is 35lbs.
Dick's sporting good has them in 45lbs. I think Target carries them up to 25lbs or so. Sandawang, thanks for the advice on my wrist problem. I gave it a few days to heal up and tried snatches again tonight. I made a point of keeping my elbow tucked into my body and that lil tidbit made all of the difference in the world. I also tried doing american/overhead swings. Those are ass kickers... prolly should NOT do those in front of a big screen tv... my wife ended up loosing her grip and tossing it back onto a sofa. Thankfully we didn't have any kids there. All in all, good stuff. We finished our kb work with some pp's. I do like them. For me, it's prolly just because they are different and my kids got a kick out of them. My 2yo climbed on daddy's back for his last set of pushups... fucker.

Once I get an extra cash I'm getting myself a pair and a few for my school based off of this thread. I used to do 500 -700 push ups a day my sophomore year in college during the off season in wrestling and I'm trying hard as hell to get back at that place right now. I feel I need something other than my crumby floor to break the monotony, so I appreciate the reviews and will give feedback.

We have a set at our KB gym and I've used them a few times.....I didn't really notice anything special though. Maybe it's just me though!

Got mine today. I'll do what I can with my funky hammy and get back to you. Pushups don't really bother it, so I should be taking advantage of them over the next few weeks to keep up my conditioning.

You used kettlebells 3 times and weren't immediately ripped and strong as Fedor? Hmm.. weird... I guess results vary.

I do a TON of varied bodyweight push-ups when I train so I kinda know what areas are being worked and not...etc. I didn't notice anything "special" with the power push up that you couldn't get by doing a lot of variety when it comes to the push up.
