Bravo, for making exercising super accessible. I know everyone wants to progress and be advanced, but I would go so far as to say, not only do you want to start where you're at (or a little easier) and really respect that so you never hurt yourself but it doesn't matter where you get to. If you work out, you'll be stronger than you would be if you didn't. And if you're careful and adjust before things hurt you'll also feel better. I think this is important.

(YET) I realy love the muscle that is appearing from this gymnastic practises. I would love to become stronger with rings so I can be proud. The second day was already 3x better than the first day, I was able to keep myself in the air for at least 30 seconds but then my hands started shaking AF. Would be lovely if I can keep up and build some lovely momentum in this practise. Nice video, thanks.

After your suggestion , I ordered some rings. I watched your ring related videos and took notes and made little drawings to have as a guide . Took them to the local park ( in an area me and my kids refer to as muscle town ). Even from the first moment of hanging , truly releasing through the shoulders I felt my spine crack naturally in a way that if I tried to. Rack my back intentionally , it wouldn’t have covered some of the areas I felt a pop in . It was pretty satisfying. You are a really good instructor… but you make it look very easy - clearly my stabilizing muscles are not there and there was much trembling and correcting at certain points of range of motion within an exercise. I saw another ring guy at Muscle Town and he was helpful and stated that hands down the best purchase he made that year. Thank you for your content .

Ring Routine #2 (Intermediate version) kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5jWkJesh8ZgiZI The Ring workouts are why I've gained tons of upper body strength and mass in the last year. Here's a few tips... Make sure to warmup your shoulders properly kzbin.info/www/bejne/fojXnJZ-l7mmf5o Be realistic with yourself and use the regressed variations if you are not quite ready for the full movements. Injuries don't help gain mass 🤪. Do this 2x a week. Start at the lower end of the rep ranges and build yourself up over time. The rings are challenging and fatiguing but don't be frustrated, you will see progress fast. Have fun with this ring workout everyone! 💪🏽👊

@elisabattle84562 жыл бұрын
What is missing from this review is the cardio component of ring training. Imagine “cheating” on pull-ups/triceps dips, i.e. using your legs to aid in the exercise. Because you are involving the entire body to complete the movement it is extremely easy on the joints, heart rate accelerates due to the upper/lower body involvement, and you can perform MANY more reps per session. It is an ass kicker of a workout. I have three sets of rings set up, ankle level. hip level and just above the head, therefore I can move rapidly from one station to the next without adjusting the rings. This can be done with just two sets of rings also. One can still focus on the strength component of an exercise, but also add a very challenging cardio routine. Thanks-Mike
