I sucked at pike pushups but after watching your video on how you learned pull ups yesterday I did gtg on pike pushups and in just one day I've seriously improved! Thanks so much!

[@Summerfunfitness]

I've been trying to increase my pike push ups as well! As of last week I've added in pick push ups - EMOM (every minute on the minute) 10 reps, every minute for 10 minutes. It kills. By then end I will just do negatives, on my knees. If you're hoping your pike push up will translate to handstand push ups make sure your elbow stays ontop of your wrist (makes it sooo hard, but translates better to HSPU). I use a yoga block an inch away from my forearm to ensure I keep them stacked.

This format is awesome!! Thank you so much for your help and time put into making this for those of us new to rings!! ❤

[@jorget6569]

What a great format! This is really helpful

[@thatlittlevoice8292]

I get the feeling that we have a different definition of "beginner".

[@joanieseepersad7507]

I was thinking the exact thing

Check our Meli channel on KZbin. She is the best so far as I am searching for other Olympic rings work out

I'm for the new informative format.

[@misscoccinell9659]

Top of my left shoulder is cranky when I do the scapular pulls (your version @Summerfunfitness), any idea why?

[@Sal-rw2lc]

Great Video, Need to promote this channel!

[@webbfamilyau]

Is there a way to do the skin the cat at an easier/more beginner level? I cant do it as well as your friend.

[@KkKk-uo4mk]

Love form Holland ❤

[@jenniferhernandez9360]

Are the rings you are using the same as the ones you recommend in the description box? Are they 1.1inch in thickness? Thank you.

[@Summerfunfitness]

I picked mine up at a local shop - just the standard size. I added the link to Thenx's rings incase people wanted to order some while supporting a calisthenics brand! I prefer the wood ones, just standard ones are fine. If you buy cheap ones you might have issues with splintering but you can always tape the handles.

[@jenniferhernandez9360]

@@Summerfunfitness Thank you, I ordered from the link you provided.

[@moredatesmorefiber3526]

How is an L-sit a pull movement? Aren't you using your pec minor to push downwards?

[@Summerfunfitness]

Because you’re bringing your body closer to its center of gravity

[@danielniffenegger7698]

Can TRX be used instead?

[@Summerfunfitness]

You can certainly use it for some things! But some of the exercises will require the rings/handles to twist. You won't get the same range of motion out of the TRX handles. Give it a go and see what you like :) I'd imagine the skin the cats would be very hard to do since the TRX hangs from a conjoined point above you, rather then the spaced apart nature of the rings.

[@africainwolf7342]

i wonder if you do high reps/high volume workouts with basic exercises.

[@Summerfunfitness]

if the goal is hypertrophy then yes.

[@africainwolf7342]

@@Summerfunfitness Yes that's the answer I was talking about, girl now I know you are Lit lol

[@emp-ty-g]

big chance of injury if you do this as a beginner and even more if you are not that young. with rings go slow so all the small mussels get trained first.

[@cheguevara5560]

Yeah ,you are right Im only 62 and doing all what you see in this video and much more . Only injuries I got from playing football for 30 years but not from calesthenics . Obviously beginers have to start slowly and build up strenght gradualy

[@minceraftfornite4334]

Bro this woman making me feel weak I gotta get stronger

[@Summerfunfitness]

I have free workouts to help with that 😜 Here's a good no equipment calisthenics workout: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5umZotqls2ooNk

[@julieli3433]

Anything easier than this...?

[@Summerfunfitness]

of course! If you can't do a row or a push up start with training basic exercises NOT on rings. Just work on your push ups against a wall, or perform holds, or decrease the volume of work - IE do 2 of the warm up exercises as your workout instead of doing the full work we did. Or perform negatives of the movement, or perform less reps, or watch my video on how to progress in calisthenics so you have an idea of how to modify an exercise. If you watch the video you will see modifications such as: instead of doing pull ups just hang from the rings, if you can't hang from the rings then I'd suggest working on basic strength training to increase your muscle endurance before incorporating rings into your workout. I'd assume there'd be ways for you to hang on the rings, perform assisted rows, work on shoulder mobility...etc. But of course decreasing the work load and the amount of exercises can certainly be done to make it easier.

Skin the cat is not a zero beginner move

[@emp-ty-g]

not even close. the other girl looks like she had some form of training.

[@cheguevara5560]

Skin the cat is playground move when I was 12 year old on monkey bars 😂😂 You can allways do other things and work you way up to more dificult moves

[@hellothere9298]

Girl says beginner and start with skin the cat..

[@Jaylade]
