FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The blocks are engineered to safely support up to 200kg.

Can I use these for yoga?

Yes, they are excellent for assisting with poses that require extra elevation or for stretching the calves.

Are they easy to carry in a gym bag?

Yes, with a combined weight of only 350g, they are lightweight and designed to stack together for compact storage.

How do I clean the wedges?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary; allow them to air dry completely before storing.

Can I use them on carpet?

While usable on carpet, a firm floor or rubber mat provides the most stable base for heavy lifting.

What are the specific angles available?

The set allows for 8.5°, 17°, 25.5°, and 34° inclines depending on how you stack the three blocks.

Troubleshooting

Wedges sliding during exercise

Ensure you are using the blocks on a gym mat or a non-slip surface; avoid placing them directly on polished tiles or wood floors.

Surface of the foam feels compressed

Rotate the blocks occasionally to ensure even weight distribution, though slight compression is normal with high-density EPP materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your wedges, place them on a firm, level surface. Choose your desired angle by aligning the blocks based on the configuration guide to achieve your target incline of 8.5°, 17°, 25.5°, or 34°.

Care:
