Push Double – Outdoor fitness equipment
THJ-B01
Function
- Pectoral and triceps strengthening through a stable and repeatable push
- Core engagement to maintain head-to-pelvis alignment during the press
- Scapular stabilization useful for posture and preventing shoulder pain
- Coordination work in bilateral pushing with speed control
- A complete pushing movement that develops functional strength and joint control.
Use
The Push Double is designed to be accessible to the general public, while offering progressive intensity to athletes through tempo control.
It enables:
- Standing ‘push’ movement: controlled push for pectorals and triceps
- Tempo variation: slow descent (2–3 s) then explosive push to build power
- Stability work: active core engagement to prevent torso sway during effort
Safety tip: keep shoulders ‘down’ and shoulder blades slightly squeezed, without arching the lower back. Stop the range of motion before any discomfort in the front of the shoulder. Execution quality always takes precedence over quantity.

Why choose Push Double?
The Push Double is a cornerstone of outdoor ‘upper body’ strengthening: it replicates a functional push that strengthens pectorals, triceps, and core, while teaching proper shoulder stabilization. It is precisely this combination (strength + scapular control) that helps improve posture and limit common compensations like arching or rounded shoulders. Designed for intensive collective use, it aligns with the durability and safety principles of Herkules Fitness.
Frequently asked questions about our equipment
Which muscles does the Push Double work with bodyweight?
The Push Double primarily targets the pectorals and triceps through a controlled push, while engaging the core (deep abdominal muscles) to stabilize the torso. The muscles around the shoulder blades (scapular stabilizers) also contribute to keeping the shoulders aligned and making the movement safer.
Is the Push Double more for cardio or strength training?
The Push Double is primarily a strengthening device: it develops pushing strength and upper body muscular endurance. By incorporating it into a circuit (e.g., 30–45 s of effort, 15–30 s of rest), it can also contribute to cardio, but its main benefit remains pectoral/triceps toning and shoulder stability.
How to position yourself correctly on the Push Double to protect your shoulders?
Place your feet stably, keep your torso ‘tall’, and keep your shoulders down (avoid shrugging them towards your ears). Control the descent, elbows slightly open but not excessively, then push while exhaling. Maintain a neutral pelvis: if your lower back arches, reduce the range of motion and slow down the movement.
Can the difficulty on the Push Double be adjusted without settings?
Yes: difficulty is modulated by tempo and range of motion. To make it easier, reduce the depth of descent and adopt a regular cadence. To intensify, descend more slowly (2–3 seconds), pause at the bottom, or increase volume (more repetitions/time under tension) while maintaining clean execution.
Is the Push Double suitable for seniors or for returning to activity?
Yes, because the movement is clear and progressive: you can limit the range of motion and work in short sets. For seniors or those returning to activity, prioritize a gentle, pain-free push with light core engagement. In case of a history of shoulder issues (tendinitis, instability), medical or professional advice is recommended.
Does the Push Double comply with requirements for community installation (standards, safety)?
The Push Double is designed for free access outdoor use, with a safety-oriented design (stability, reliable grips, resistant materials). For communities, it generally integrates into a compliance framework for outdoor training equipment (e.g., EN 16630 depending on configurations and documentation). Herkules Fitness typically supports projects with the technical information required for installation.
What maintenance is required for an outdoor Push Double?
Regular visual inspection is sufficient in most cases: checking fastenings, inspecting contact areas, and cleaning with fresh water (especially in saline environments). The galvanized steel structure and anti-corrosion treatment are designed to minimize maintenance while preserving safety and user comfort.
