One of the things I highly enjoy with rings is that they let me move my hands throughout movements instead of locking them into one position like a bar does. That really is a relief on my wrists.
You can add a cardio component to rings that is never mentioned--imagine doing "cheating" pullups/triceps dips on the rings, i.e., using the legs to complement the movement. Try 20-30 reps performing these "cheating" reps and tell me where your heart rate is now. Very easy on the joints, minimal impact on the knees and actually fun to perform. Many variations off this theme using the rings with arms/legs combos. I am 71 and cannot do the intense brutal training regimens I adhered to in the past due to orthopedic concerns, but intend to remain active until God calls me home.--Mike
You should have at least 100K views. This is the best tutorial for beginners on rings. I was going to make a video to a friend of mine who just bought his first set of RINGS and needed some pointers. You saved me the trouble. Thanks!
Thanks a lot, still relatively new channel so hopefully views will build. I’ve made a couple of new ring videos. One beginner workout ruclips.net/video/ouB5Ag9jhfg/видео.html + intermediate workout ruclips.net/video/uNMVv9oM9yo/видео.html
Having some stability issues, I hear rings are an amazing remedy. Just picked some up today and will implement this workout starting next week. Thank for the demo.🤙🏾
Ring Push Ups and Inverted Rows can be done at an upright angle that they suits all levels, I even have my 70 year old clients doing them. Pistols are tough but most people manage some range of motion with 2 hand assist. Chin Ups might have to wait until your inverted rows get stronger or alternative are: band assisted / leg assisted on bench / or just negative only reps. Hope that helps 👍
Still confused by which diameter rings to purchase. Some say get the 1.11" (FIG) and other say get the 1.25” (CrossFit). I don't have particularly big hands.
Probably get the smaller 1.11’’ I have both & it’s easier to false grip the thinner ones but thicker ones spread pressure a little better. Just go with hand size though, smaller hands = smaller diameter grip 👍
I'm a beginner and I like to do face pulls progression. Adjust tension by bring more or less vertical. So I'm very vertical. Being slow in your progression or is great for your rotator cuff strength.

Ye I find the rings easier on my elbows for the same reason 👍

This was great!!!
Thanks 💪🏼
This is the best beginners
Thanks
Hey, can you make a video on how to hang the rings on the squat rack? I can't find any on RUclips. Similar to the Ring Chin Up.
Just hook them through the back of the catch just like you could if it was a tree, bar or anything. No difference being on a rack.
it would be helpful when you show how low your rings hang before you start the specific exercise
Gracias :)
Con gusto 💪🏼
I made some rings. Did a decent job.
Well done! Try my beginner rings follow along from the ‘Rings Playlist’ on my channel.
@@TomPetoTraining I did. My muscles hurt more than using free weights and one exercise incorporates more than one muscle group. I am loving them.
@@MaSter-mw3rb awesome! Yes rings are under-rated for building strength even if you’re not 100% into Calisthenics. Keep it up 💪🏼
Great vid for beginner's like me thanks heaps
You’re welcome Hamish, good luck with developing on the rings 💪🏼
Hi Tom, have you got a link to the freestanding pull up bar or what manufacturer it is looks a nice solid frame :-)
I love thr Rogue Mil pullup station. Just got rings today.
Having some stability issues, I hear rings are an amazing remedy. Just picked some up today and will implement this workout starting next week. Thank for the demo.🤙🏾
Yes they are great for stability and strength. Start with the easier ones like the ring press up and straight arm hold and build your way up 👍
How is this thing his rings are attached to called? Like how would I google it?
but how does one start, some of the exercises you are showing imply you are already strong. How can one build up the strength? pull-ups are for pros.

What pull frame is that?
Just a cheap Amazon one I’ve now got rid of. Was very flimsy so wouldn’t recommend.

I’m having a hard time doing the rings because my arms don’t have enough strength and still struggling with my body moving

Tom, where do you recommend for buying a pair of rings?
@@AmandaAlexander I’ve put a link in the video description to a pair I’d recommend from Amazon

@@BouncingRadical ye face pulls are a great ring variation! Good suggestion 👌
