Described herein is an article of manufacture designed to allow the performance of pushups comfortably, ergonomically, and in a balanced manner on a ground surface. The article in reference is composed of a pair of hand supports (left and right) made of plastic or similar material, and a plurality of cushions made of rubber, cloth, or similar materials.
