Ring Wide Pull-Up
The ring pull-up with the rings set well outside the shoulders; the width works like a wide-grip bar while the rings still let the wrists turn.
How to do it
Setup
Rings hung well wider than the shoulders, dead hang, arms straight.
Steps
- Pull the chest up between the rings, elbows driving down and out.
- Let the rings turn as you rise.
- Lower to a full hang with control.
Common mistakes
Rings sliding in toward each other: keep them wide the whole rep. Swinging to reach the top: still the rings before each rep. Stopping above straight arms: the full hang is part of the rep.
Breathing
Exhale on the pull, inhale lowering.
