Achieving goals isn't easy so don't make it harder than it has to be. Whether that's a knee brace, a knee push up or Bear Blocks. Use the right tools and techniques to get the job done. Wrist pain with pushups? Try Bear Blocks!

Bear Blocks work best when you use an "active grip", meaning you are gripping the hand surface with force, rather than just placing the heel of your hand on the surface. This activates your forearm muscles and increases stability throughout the muscle chain!

Our customers are the BEST and we want you to know how much we appreciate you! Every time the business-grind feels hard we get an awesome message from someone saying how much Bear Blocks help them. That's so appreciated!! Happy Valentines! Bear Hugs for everyone!!

Pre-COVID we took Bear Blocks to Costa Rica and discovered how good they are for traveling! Not only are they light and compact, but they are easy to throw in your backpack for a hike... just in case you need an awesome shot in front of the Mount Arenal volcano! 😀👍

Some people wonder if Bear Blocks are strong enough for their weight. Our stress tests show that a 420 lbs person doing a handstand would cause 1mm of temporary deflection at the very tip of the block. So... indestructible. Yeah baby.

Thousands of customers love the feel of Bear Blocks on their palms, but the odd customer says their hands get too sweaty or sore. An easy hack for those folks is a small strip of yoga mat to add some cushion and grip. Want to try? I'd be happy to send you some strips!

Monday, the day we get back to achieving our goals. Back in the rhythm, the flow and the movement of getting things done! Crush the workday; crush the workout; feel the satisfaction that comes from being healthy and productive! Love Mondays!

Planks are a great workout for your entire core, but you can up your game by going down to your elbows and back up. Just make sure you keep your core tight so you don't strain your back!

This is pretty cool! I assume it only works in English, but point if it is universal that's for sure. Attitude > Hard work > Knowledge You need them all, but attitude is essential!

It's crazy to look back on the where Bear Blocks started. These are the first blocks, cut from 4x4 pressure-treated posts. I was shocked (honestly) that they worked as well as they did right off the bat! They sure don't look sturdy though do they!? 😀😜

We are doing something wrong and we're hoping our customers can help! Non-customers sometime say, "just use dumbbells". Our answer is that, "dumbbells hurt your hands", but that doesn't convince people. So how would you answer this question? What is your advice for us?

Bear Blocks aren't for everyone. If you're this guy, rockin' a planche progression (had to look that up), then you might not need us. In 15 or 20 years you probably will 😆, but maybe not now. If you're like the rest of us, though, do your joints a favour and try Bear Blocks!

We were so thrilled to be featured on the TODAY Show as one of the top fitness tools for 2022! It's been a few weeks now and we're still pinching ourselves!! Thanks to all of our customers who have helped spread the word. If you have any great stories please let us know!

Mountain climbers are one of the best exercises for working your abs and making them burn. Do this exercise with some intensity & you'll definitely get your heart rate up while also working your shoulders and arms! If your wrists/elbows hurt doing them try using Bear Blocks!

We first developed Bear Blocks to solve push up pain, but SO many of our customers love them for yoga and pilates, too! Get back to the yoga practice you love! "Bear Blocks are great. Wrist pain was keeping me from doing yoga. Now I'm able to continue my practice..."

Sure, Bear Blocks is serious business, but Canadian bears... now they're funny! Check out this hilarious video clip and thank me later. NOTE: there's a bit of swearing (in Russian)! youtu.be/D6xa3VcxWt

At 4.5 inches above the ground, Bear Blocks allow you to get deeper and really activate your pecs while protecting your wrists from strain and injury. Win/win! #pushupsfordays #yoga #exercise #pushups #bodyweight #fitness #pilates

From the plank position you can do so many great exercises, like this glute routine to really burn your bootie! If you wrists get sore in this position be sure to use your Bear Blocks!
