About us

It started in a home gym.

No corporation, no mass production. Just engineering, a passion for strength training and the will to stop making compromises.

Founding of Push n Pull
Our story

From tinkering to a world first.

Hi, I'm Michael. For over 20 years I've been developing products for major brands in my engineering office. But my second passion, for over 30 years, has been strength training.

In my home gym I was always looking for the perfect setup. When I discovered a machine on holiday that fascinated me but was far too bulky and expensive for home, my engineer's instinct kicked in.

“I didn't want to compromise anymore, so I built my own solution.”

What began as tinkering quickly gained its own momentum. Over a dozen patents later it was clear: these innovations belong in every home gym and studio. That's why in 2023 I founded Push n Pull together with my son Marc. I bring decades of engineering experience, Marc keeps the focus on the needs of modern athletes.

Together with our first employee Nenad, we work every day on equipment we love ourselves.
