Rings Review and Quick Workout

More on the rings in the video: http://buildingbodies.ca/elite-rings-ii/

Having some fun pumping out a chest and arm workout at home using a set of gymnastic rings I just got.

Sorry for the lack of music on this one. Things are getting weird on Youtube with copyright issues and such.

great video! I have also used the rings for training for a year on and off. I have built up size and strength quicker this way than I ever did conventional weight training. Reason being it recruits so many more muscle fibres than regular isolation exercises especially the stabilizer muscles. Your whole upper body must contract simply to hold you there. your lats must be flexed to hold your arms in close and your arms get fried. love it.

@eric0sbob Awesome... have you checked out gymnasticbodies ? I bought the book and videos and it's radically changed my training in the last year... it's WAY more fun with that stuff in the routine.

Hey man, do you know if weighted push ups will build muscle, or weighted dips with chairs( using a weight vest for both )? I know it will add strength, but will it add size? I got dbs, but dont have a spotter, and would be stuck doing floor bench press. I know gymnastics use rings and they are not the biggest guys, but they got some ripped muscular arms. I have no room for a smith machine or nething, so I am stuck with doing sum other movements, but dont know what.

Building muscle comes from the progressive loading on the muscle and not from the equipment. You can build muscle using anything as long as you provide progressive resistance through any method including range of motion and leverage or weight.

where do you buy the equipment?

[buildingbodies]

You can get them online and they will ship them to you.
