Muscles

Technique

  1. Get into a Rings strap handstand : hands on the rings, upside down, with your feet hooked in the straps for stability.
  2. Bend your arms to lower your head down between the rings, as deep as you can control.
  3. Push back up until your arms are straight.

Form tips

  1. Avoid arching your back as much as possible.
  2. Keep your elbows relatively close to the centerline rather than flaring them out to the sides.

Risks

  1. Practice the Rings strap handstand hold first; the rings move, so lower slowly and stay tight.
