How to Pick Gymnastic Rings | BUILD Muscle and Strength with Rings CHEAP

[@GlucksGym]

What did I miss? Any brands or setups I should look at?

[@danielgauthier2072]

There are a few double circle knockoffs on amazon such as Gonex. They're about $10 cheaper and quality is the same.

[@GlucksGym]

@@danielgauthier2072 I tend to try to stay away from knock-offs when possible or companies that don't have the same track record. That being said sometimes a deal is too good (like some of my Titan stuff)

[@danielgauthier2072]

@@GlucksGym Yeah I hear you - definitely taking a chance even with simple products. That said, Titan and Rep do not have spotless track records. This year alone Rep has had recalls on safety straps and failing j-cups. IMO a bad track record is worse than no track record because it shows a pattern of cutting corners.

[@danielgauthier2072]

Also to add - I think your vids are great, keep them coming.

[@GlucksGym]

I'm not sure there. I know what I'm getting and where to take risks with companies I know at least but I see your point.

[@elienehme_]

One thing to keep in mind about the thickness of the rings - all gymnasts use gloves when using the 1.1” rings, which thicken their grip. I think for most people 1.25” is the way to go (unless you plan to wear gloves or have very small hands, then go with 1.1”)

[@weenerdawg3972]

how to know if i have small hands?

[@rasheemthebestfirstone3274]

@@weenerdawg3972 yup I’m waiting on their reply

[@GlucksGym]

Wynie is 5'5 and uses 1.25 and 1.25 is the most common size now because of crossfit

[@baikia777]

​@@weenerdawg3972 just go to home depot, find similar diameter pole or pipe as the rings and try gripping those. See wich one is more comfortable. Generally, thicker diameter rings will be more comfortable as they won't dig as much into your palms or fingers.

[@michiel5160]

Gymnasts are usually pretty short, especially ring specialists. So, they probably have quite small hands also.

[@LV93262]

We got the Double Circle ones - can't wait to use them!

[@GlucksGym]

I love my rings! If course I still have too many pairs but that's not a bad problem 😂

[@The_Fit_ness_monster]

Always put athletic tape on mine, doesn’t matter how much you sweat and it’s replaceable year after year. I’ve been preaching rings + barbell workouts for almost 2 decades. My only regret is I wish I would’ve started with rings instead of powerlifting through my late teens and 20’s. Currently at 37 I’m working on the strict ring muscle up world record🤟

[@GlucksGym]

[@antwon4518]

How’s the record attempt going? I am also very interested

[@TonyDrecaps]

Good review! Thank you. Next time you should include setup and show some exercises. I picked up the double circles

[@romansilva00]

I once saw in Jonni Shreeve's channel, a bodybuilder, some uses "out of the box" to the rings, like doing rows, and in some machines to change the wrist position, and now I'm convinced I'll need one of them!

[@GlucksGym]

I have plans on doing some ring videos, soon enough!

[@JoelP1961]

My next set I will get the carabiner style, looks easier to adjust. I don’t like leaving them on my rack because they get in the way. Rings are very good for shoulder health and mobility! 💯

[@GlucksGym]

Seriously, almost anything hanging I'll just do on these and it feels so much better.

[@wallyg9512]

Beware that some of the the carabiner style have set screws to lock the carabiners closed which I lost one almost immediately. They are very tedious to adjust compared to the cam style. These are not climbing rated carabiners and would loose the full rating (not sure how much) if not installed. A climbing carabiner creates a full locked loop and would be much stronger. It’s too late to return mine so I plan to replace carabiners with stronger body weight rated. Leaving the locking screws out could result in serious injury.

[@jota3732]

I have both ring size’s in wood love both of them if you use chalk as well the grip is really good 👍🇬🇧

[@nobodynoone2500]

I tried a few brands, pretty much all needed some light sanding. Just order some 500grit with em. Just added my own biners. They are good to keep around, and I don't trust random chinesium ones.

[@juanp1089]

5:25 I wanted all and I want it now‼️😳

[@brandonjames8671]

Thanks G!. Just bought the DC off of the link

[@Noiconnotag]

You can use medical tape or hockey tape to insure a solid grip on plastic rings. For some reason I don't feel confident with wood rings, especially the thin diameter.

[@LukesGarageGym]

I got some on my squat rack! Love them!!

[@GlucksGym]

Can't beat the versatility for the price

[@LukesGarageGym]

@@GlucksGym Absolutely not. Doing push ups on them are one of my favorite exercises.

[@Burritosarebetterthantacos]

Wood will patina and age with the oils in your skin making them better as time goes on. Rogue with cam is $75. Ill spend a little more to avoid Titan products as Ive had many issues with their stuff.

[@GlucksGym]

As have I but the wood on the Titan rings is my favorite of the ones in this video. I like REP's and Double Circle's straps. You also have to add shipping into Rogue which brings them up nearly $100. Love Rogue but that cost is prohibitive for many watching this video.

[@Burritosarebetterthantacos]

@@GlucksGym Thanks for the reply!

[@keithlivingston6973]

[@jorgewuzhear]

[@anunnakimenagerie]

How is that brand? Is the spacing even and quality good? A few reviews on Amazon said that the spacing is off an that the rings were rough... but the majority of reviews were ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@QuesadiIIaa]

@@anunnakimenagerie spacing on mine are a bit off, it’s noticeable enough when doing excersizes. If I were you I would just get a cam buckle style ring set way more use out of those.

[@GlucksGym]

Hahaha I'll be honest I never remember the jokes and intros ah I had to think about this one. Best comment on this channel yet?

[@chuloCFA]

I have the double circle straps but I'm thinking of getting the traditional style straps. The DC straps are thicker/bulkier and shorter so since you have used all of those is there any difference in stability between the carabinier type and the normal buckles? Is it a minor difference and nothing major?

[@GlucksGym]

I actually have been using my Rep rings the most lately. I don't notice much difference or maybe I don't really pay attention.

[@OceanDrive321]

Is 36mm rings the fattest rings there are? Im looking to blow my wrists up!

[@babygiantbarbell1014]

What’s up Gluck! I want to get some rings, but I am torn between wood and plastic. I plan to leave them exclusively in my garage gym in humid west TN. Do you think a wooden pair would last long term in that humidity? Thanks for any insight man!

[@GlucksGym]

I think they'll last awhile and you'll be fine. Mine sat for a year with humidity and no heat and they were fine.

[@user-ki3dj9pu9y]

I got the garage for ones for 20 bucks, look forward to getting them

[@hereweare9011]

If you dont have any chalk, use some ap flour.

[@tomoffinland74]

Just confirming, do the straps for the Double Circle rings definitely have velcro to deal with any excess strap?

[@GlucksGym]

There's no velcro on the Double Circle. If you're using both carabiners you wouldn't have extra. If you're using one you'd have excess. I'll be honest 75% of the time in my home gym the excess on my rings doesn't bother me and I let it hang though the carabiner and thickness of the Double Circle straps is much more than the Reps for example so I don't ever let that one hang.

[@GlucksGym]

I've got Rep's dip attachment, Mutant Metals, and yes I also use my rings. I think you can see Mutant in a few vids... I even joke about having the world's most expensive dip attachment in the Building a Home Gym From Nothing video (it's probably in the background)

[@GlucksGym]

Probably any cam buckle style syrap ring. You don't need labels on the strap at that point so I'd just go with Titan's though someone like Rep's with the numbers are nice on the straps they're probably not helpful on an uneven surface.

Personally I like rings better because of the cost and versatility though you can do a ton with TRX as well. As a supplement to strength training I think rings are better as dips and muscle ups (or above the handle exercises in general) are doable. Rings imo are a bit more advanced but they both have their place and if I could afford both I'd debate it but rings are just so cheap in comparison.
