two rings to mog them all, two rings to wreck them
two dubs to roll them all, and in the darkness check them
>dude just have a nice day so you can have strong shoulders that no one can notice
>strong shoulders
heh, thanks, bro
Rings are fricking great for the inner chest, forearms, shoulders, and abs. It's also fun to learn things like muscle ups.
is it too autistic to bring my own rings to the gym
no, but dont they have rings at your gym?
i dont think so, they have TRX straps but ive never used them
If you have rings then you don't need to go to the gym, or at least not on upper body days
Rings are fun, but it's still 'calisthenics'. Weights are more practical and allow better hypertrophy with the less injury potential.
>Weights are more practical
not necessarily
>better hypertrophy
yes
>less injury potential
bullshit
Cool, a ring thread. I've never used them properly before, but I plan to start. Does anyone have any tips? I tried last time, but I just had zero idea of what I was doing. What exercises should I do?
I mostly do basic movements - Pull-ups, Archer/Bodyweight(Tucked Front Lever) Rows, Face pulls, Dips, RTO Leg Raises, Bicep Curls, Tricep Extensions, Inverted Shrugs.
At some point did Ring Flies/Reverse Flies, Ring Leg Curls, Ring Pushups, "Skin the cat", Front Lever Pull, Tucked Front Lever.
For over-the-rings movements(e.g. Dips), you'd want to start with getting comfortable at Support hold, for 1 minute or so; and as a warmup. Turning rings out(RTO) after each Dip / Pushup helps with shoulder health, I think, so might as well add it to Support hold at some point. It also makes Dips/Pushups harder if you keep them turned out all the time.
don't do it bro, it'll be your ruination
Get really strong before you do them - if you fall you could break your neck/brain
>but IST said calisthenics won't help you get laid...
the girl you posted could probably get fricked without doing calisthenics, anon
sex is far more fun when both you and your girl have full control over your bodies' mobility
I don't usually thirst after chicks on IST but FUAAAAAAARK
This is now a Summoning thread
based
on LOTR
Saw an OtterChad using these at the gym the other day. Moment he was up there all the women on the yoga mats started checking him out.
We'll get there one day, bros.
I have rings and use them regularly, but can't be arsed to learn any tricks. I do:
>weighted dips
>weighted ring pushups
>weighted one arm australian pullups
>weighted ring skullcrushers
and I dunno what else could be done on them that wouldn't be easier to do with weights
the same people who tell you that dips are the best exercise for your chest are also the ones who also tell you to never do decline bench press.
thoughts on this routine? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeJJEZdaMm8
im completely untrained right now(havent worked out properly in 5 years) for legs i will do bulgarian split squats only for now
Looks alright, for a few weeks.
are more practical
>not necessarily
>>less injury potential
>bullshit
I mean... if all you do is dips and pull-ups for 10-15 reps, probably.
I'm talking about getting stronger than that. With dumbells/barbell you can just increase the weight and do the same exercises without changing the technique. While with rings/calisthenics you need to change exercise to a different variation, with worse leverage, that puts more strain on your tendons, muscles and joints in a way that doesn't really has to do with the muscle development.
Mind you, I'm not talking about extremes.
Professional gymnasts and powerlifters are equally fricked up.
But even 1.5pl8 bench provides more stimulus for strength and muscle growth than most semi-advanced exercises on rings.
im still too weak to do ring dips so im doing the pushups with these
