  • @NuclearSpinach
    @NuclearSpinach 2 года назад +4

    2:53 onward is so important and I'm glad you brought it up because other RUclipsrs often skip over this point. If you have hypermobile joints like me, your shoulders can start rattling in their sockets if you push through that fatigue. It's good for joint health if you're careful, but sets, reps, and rest schemes have to change!

  • @rajthomas6446
    @rajthomas6446 3 года назад +6

    I have been using rings for a while exclusively. I absolutely love them. I vouch for everything in this video. Very well put. After years of weight training and dealing with joint pain all the time, the switch to rings was more about doing progressions to do an objective, as opposed to just aesthetics in general with weight lifting. For example , currently my goal is to do a ring muscle up and in order to achieve it, I am doing the progressions for obtaining that skill. Now in the meantime, the body is getting super tone, muscles are showing in all the right places , including abs, but the focus isn't on aesthetics, the focus is on accomplishing the goal of doing a ring muscle up.

  • @ddkesports
    @ddkesports 4 года назад +11

    They are my favourite piece of exercise equipment for sure. I've been back on them recently focusing on back and front lever progressions as well as other things such as, tuck lever rows, l-sits, dips, etc. I love how impressive the skills look, it adds a huge sense of accomplishment to condition your connective tissues and increase your strength to achieve them.

  • @BloopsnBleeps

    This makes a lot of sense now. I weight lifted for 20 years. Just got into rings a few weeks ago and I will never go back, but I would feel myself getting almost nauseous halfway through the workouts. It felt like it did when I lifted too heavy with weights but I was confused how it was draining me so quickly on rings.

    Yes and have for years. Just bought dual anchor point suspension straps, ie trx handles without the single anchor point. They’re a game changer for chins, Delt and upper back training as well as giving novel approaches to stimulating other areas. Currently only using these straps, can easily train whole body in the house with them.

    Do I use gymnastic rings? Absolute yes. Although I mostly work with the basic movements like push-ups and bodyweight rows, I believe those two movements are foundational to any type of training, rings or otherwise.
    Although I do agree with the benefits you’ve stated, I will add one more benefit which is my favorite benefit of using gymnastic rings. Alongside the fact that you can take them anywhere provided there’s a sturdy place to use them, the look on people’s faces when you use gymnastic rings in public never gets old. When people see you use gymnastic rings even when just doing mostly basic movements, they know you’re serious with your training.

    The best exercises
    Best chest pushing exercise - Gym Rings pushups with added weight

    Best Unilateral Leg Strength exercise (glutes, quads, hams) - Bulgarian Split Squat with one foot in the ring
    Best Triceps exercise - Gym Rings elbow extensions
    Best Biceps exercise - Gym Rings Pelican curls
    Best Hip Thrust (glutes and hams) - Gym Rings Hip Thrust - Feet in the rings, foam roller behind your neck
    From beginner - Incline Push-ups to
    Olympic champion athlete - Victorian Cross
    Adjust the difficulty in seconds - change leverage (when you perform push-ups walk forward to make it easy, walk back to make it hard)
    Train anywhere - gym, outdoor, yard, park, bedroom, garage (in a box, and with a fox)
    Good rings cost $100, last for a lifetime

    @johnsonying2193 4 года назад +3

    Hey Eugene, thanks for the info. This video came at a funny time because just yesterday I tried out some shadow boxing for fun as light conditioning work. Today, I woke up and my back was extremely sore. This led me to think whether or not just boxing movements (not necessarily hitting something but just weaving back and forth and jabbing) could actually be an effective way to recruit high threshold motor units? When you punch and shift your body, i suppose your lats for example are not simply working as your arm extends but also just to stabilize your body in general. This is different than a typical Lat exercise in the gym where your body is more stable on a seat or against a pad. Yet, if you overdo your conditioning, you'll be so fatigue that trying to do anything else in the gym will be unproductive. This leads me to wonder if incorporating some inherent instability into a weighted exercise is a potential avenue for more gains, for any body part in general. Do you have any thoughts about this?

    Gym rings offer by far the highest value training:
    Best moves: pushups, pullups, dips, rows, biceps curls, triceps extension, Bulgarian split squat, hip thrust, etc
    Instant change of difficulty from very easy (incline push-ups) to extremely difficult (Iron Cross)
    Optimal range of motion

    weighted ring push-ups is the one heavy contender with dumbbell bench press. I think ring push-ups are slightly better when our shoulder blades can move more freely, allowing better pushing engagement. The serious downfall is how can load yourself. Not many backpacks are capable of handling 120s or 160s, and they wear out pretty fast though expensive. But spending such a big money for that seems not a great investment. Belts or weighted vests carrying extra weights? Maybe.

    Eugene, have you tried using any garments for better grip? I see that you use black rings, meaning they are full steel or ABS polymer covering the steel core, but they are all very slippery when sweat gets in. I recommend the wraps that are used in high-quality badminton rackets or tennis ones
