Ring Push-up

How to do it

  1. Set two suspended rings at floor height and grip one ring in each hand.
  2. Extend into a plank position with the rings directly under the shoulders and the body in a straight line.
  3. Lower the chest between the rings while actively rotating the palms slightly inward for stability.
  4. Press back up through the rings until the arms are fully extended, keeping the rings from swinging.
  5. Brace the core throughout to control the instability of the freely hanging rings.
  6. Inhale on the descent and exhale on the press, moving slower than a floor push-up to manage the wobble.
