Why Choose Wood Parallettes Over Metal?
Top athletes prefer wood for one reason: Grip. Unlike metal or plastic, natural beech wood absorbs moisture. This means even during high-intensity sessions, your hands won’t slip.
Ergonomic 5cm Diameter: Most bars are too thin, causing localized pressure. Our 5cm thick handles distribute weight evenly across your palms, significantly reducing hand fatigue.
Wrist Health: Training on a flat floor puts your wrists in an awkward 90-degree angle. Parallettes provide a neutral grip, relieving strain and preventing common training injuries.
Maximum Range of Motion: Elevating your hands allows for deeper push-ups and more clearance for L-sits, targeting muscle fibers you can’t reach on the floor.
Find Your Perfect Fit: Small, Medium, or Large
We designed three specific sizes to match every athlete’s training style:
Small Parallettes (Portable & Travel-Ready)
The ultimate companion for the nomadic athlete. With a 16cm beech handle, these fit easily into a gym bag or carry-on. They are the gold standard for handstand balancing and travel workouts.
Medium Parallettes (The Versatile All-Rounder)
Our most popular model. The 30cm handle and 13cm height provide the perfect clearance for deep push-ups, tuck sits, and core-focused calisthenics.
Large Parallettes (Elite Stability)
Built for dynamic movements. The 45cm handle offers the widest base of support, ensuring the bars stay locked to the ground during explosive transitions or wide-grip planche training.
German Engineering: No Assembly Required
We believe your time belongs to your training, not a manual. Every pair of RHSM parallettes is:
Handcrafted in Germany: Using sustainable, solid beech and fir for professional-grade durability.
Delivered Fully Assembled: Open the box and start your workout immediately.
100% Non-Slip: Equipped with heavy-duty rubber pads to ensure zero movement on wood, tile, or concrete floors.

Parallettes: Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Small, Medium, and Large parallettes?
The primary differences are the height and length of the handles. The Small version is designed for portability with a 16cm handle and 9cm height. The Medium model offers a 30cm handle and 13cm height for deeper range of motion. The Large model provides a 46cm handle for maximum stability and wide-grip movements. All sizes feature the same professional 5cm diameter grip.
Are parallettes good for beginners?
Yes! In fact, they are often safer for beginners than floor training because they reduce wrist strain and make it easier to maintain proper form during basic movements like push-ups and planks.
Do I need chalk with wooden bars?
While wood provides the best natural friction, many athletes use Magnesium Carbonate (Chalk) for extra security during advanced holds. Our raw beech surface is designed to hold chalk perfectly.
Can these be used on smooth surfaces?
Absolutely. Every base features 4x anti-slip rubber bottoms that grip polished surfaces like laminate or gym flooring, ensuring they won’t slide mid-rep.
Are the parallettes delivered assembled?
Yes. To ensure you can start training immediately and to guarantee structural integrity, all RHSM parallettes are delivered fully assembled. You do not need any tools or hardware to set them up.
Will these parallettes slide on smooth floors?
No. Every base is equipped with 4x high-friction anti-slip rubber bottoms. These are designed to provide a locked-in, stable feel on various surfaces, including gym floors, wood, and concrete.
Why is the handle diameter 5cm?
The 5cm thick grip is an athlete-tested standard designed to distribute pressure more evenly across your palms. This reduces wrist strain compared to thinner bars and provides better torque for static holds like planches and L-sits.
How do I maintain the wooden handles?
Since the handles are made from natural beech wood, you should wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth after training to remove sweat.
Can I use chalk or grip tape with these?
Absolutely. Our parallettes are designed to be used with RHSM Magnesium Carbonate Chalk to keep hands dry. If you prefer a cushioned or high-friction fabric feel, you can also wrap the handles with our Anti-Slip Grip Tape.
Where are RHSM parallettes made?
All of our parallettes are handcrafted in Germany using sustainable beech and fir wood. They are designed by athletes for athletes and rigorously tested for professional street workout use.
