Hands: soften the angle
The approximately 15° wedge changes the wrist position for push-ups, planks, handstands and planche practice. The elastic strap accommodates different hand sizes.

THE SETUP GUIDE
One wedge.
Two ways to train.
Use the incline under your hands or beneath your heels.
Heels: explore your squat
Place the wedges under your heels for squat and pistol-squat practice when you want to try an elevated-heel position.
Add 5° at a time
Optional ASCENT Boosters increase the incline in 5° increments. Build from 15° to 20° or 25° as your setup requires.
Texture that travels
A wood-grain texture gives the fiberglass wedge a firm surface. A little chalk can help with especially sweaty palms.
ATHLETE PERSPECTIVES
These are a perfect solution for working with clients who have stiff and sore wrists. Not only does it relieve some of the stress on the wrist, it still helps them build stronger hands. Definitely a go-to for push-up and squat training.
ATHLETE PERSPECTIVES
Burpees are great for training all attributes. But these were hard for me to do — until I got these hand wedges from Kensui Fitness. They position my wrist to easily take impact without further damage to my joints.
