![How rings training is transforming my upper body strength - [30 Day Test]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/U6uK_n46gvA/mqdefault.jpg)
If you get rings and commit to correct form you will see dramatic aesthetic improvement to your chest and upper body, even after barely getting into it-talking 3-6 rep max. It’s awesome
I started using my rings for push ups in the new workout I'm doing. I couldn't believe the different feel and tension it puts on the chest, after I was done only 10 push ups I got up and could see the pump in my upper chest already.
Excellent, now the challenge is to bring that same tension pattern to the push ups you do on the floor without the rings after a few weeks.
Dear Matt, one thing i dislike about your advices.
In pushing motions, like pushups and dips, shoulders should be protracted in top part of movement and retracted only at the bottom. Its how gymnastics are doing it and there are reasons to do so. Cheers!
More gold here, just what I was looking for. Many thanks.
Much thanks OGM!
Great style of video, audio commentary during continuous demonstration!!
Much thanks.
Great info!
You, good sir, have spectacular form on your push-ups. The way you teach push-ups and elbow positioning is the inspiration for how I train people. Awesome video.
Thanks Jerry, but there's always room for improvement.
Awesome attitude to have! That's the beautiful thing about calisthenics! You can always get better!
I like to cross the rings in front of me and pulse them while flexing when doing push ups.
I've read that turning the thumbs outward at the top of a dip is great for the shoulders but I've not progressed to dips on rings yet.
Those shoulder positions are essential, lot of videos ive seen the person internally rotates their shoulders way to much. Anyways great vid, quality explanation of the exercise. Thanks!!
Thanks a lot. Awesome as always. :-)
Thank you soo much for all your videos! I love everything I've seen so far.
I know there is a lot here and I may have missed the nugget of information (please point if so), but can you do a video about how/if exercise tempo affects results?
For example, Coach Wade in Convict Conditioning recommends 2 seconds lower/raise and a 1 second pause (2121). Could changing that emphasize strength, muscle, endurance, or power? Is that something calisthenics practitioners should be doing?
Thanks in advance.
it's good for beginners who want to learn proper form and eliminate momentum during reps. once you get those then it's just another training variable like lever angle, weight distribution, etc. good to play with but not necessary.
Give this video a look hopefully it will help shed some light on rep speed for you:

I've always felt a strain in my elbows doing them and lately often have elbow pain. I'll try them with the elbows more to the sides and see how that works.
Any opinion on the hands turned out ring push up variation?
great
your face at 1:30 no strain, no emotion, just boredom hahaha. great vid
he kinda looks like a bald Arnold there lol
lol.
Can you give me some at home workouts without the bar so I can improve my pull ups and do more
Superman variations as well as using a table for Back Rows
Robert Boyd ok
Sorry to spam with questions. I'm getting some bad pain in front of shoulder after a longer than usual session. I'm retracting my scapulae fully as you've taught in other videos and keeping my arms close to torso. Could a cause possibly be lowering too far at the bottom of the movement? So maybe I should push back up as soon as my scapulae come together, rather than going down a bit further?
hard to say David, that would be a good thing to assess in-person if you can find a coach who can take a look and see what's going on.
Other tutorials suggest the support hold should be with you arms locked and palms (and inner arms) facing slightly outwards (forward). You don't do this. Is the official "support hold" important? Is there a reason why others recommend this position but you don't use it? Thanks!
That extra external rotation at the top is great for getting the shoulder to be a bit more stable and helping to squeeze the chest a bit more. it also helps dial in the tension in the lower traps a bit more which is also key.
but it's not like that is going to make or break the exercise. It's fine to use, but it's also fine to omit.
@@RedDeltaProject thanks for the reply. I was worried if I did it "wrong" I'd be more susceptible to injury so this is reassuring as I do mine exactly as you do without the extra external rotation. Thanks for your videos, they're really helpful
Using rings are better or worse on scraping your arms than trx?
Better, due to the dual anchor points which makes it easier to move the straps away from your body
How do you stop the straps rubbing against your shoulders and getting in the way?
it's all about packing the shoulders and keeping the arms in tight so they don't "wing out" and press against the straps.
What is the correct hand placement? I know for floor push ups you say to have them narrow and below the chest, is it the same for rings? (Obviously to the side of the chest with rings, as below chest is impossible)
That's what I prefer to do, or maybe just a bit wider if you like. The key is to keep the hands low on the torso and not hunched up by the shoulders.
@@RedDeltaProject thanks!!
is it better if i turn the rings in??? what is the difference?
I've never understood the whole deal of turning the rings in. Never felt like it did anything, or at least it kept my external rotators engaged, but then again, they are supposed to stay engaged anyway
Which Gymantics rings do you recommend to buy ?
He said any kind, look for wooden ones with a 1.25 ring diameter (if you have big hands)
Which rings do you recommend to buy?
Any of them will work just fine, they are pretty much the same, but look for wooden ones with a 1.25 thick grip if you have larger hands like me
Scooby 2.0 ;) Big arms!
Nice Cobra Kai shirt
