Cool New Ring Push-Up Variation

Cool New Ring Push-Up Variation

Many of you have requested more training videos on this site.

And looks like I invented another awesome ring movement to kick off 2016.

So to appease the masses, here’s a cool new ring push-up variation.

Holy chest pump!

I’m dubbing this the Around the Clock Ring Push-Up.

Why?

Imagine your head is a clock and your arms the hands of that clock. As you go down into a push-up, the right arm remains close to the body while the left one goes straight forward – or 12 o’clock.

Next, your left arm goes forward and slightly to the side – at 10.30. Then, directly to the side, at 9 o’clock. And finally to the side and back, around 7.30.

Now you come back to 9, 10.30 and 12. That’s seven total reps. Then you repeat the same thing on the right side… 12 – 1.30 – 3 – 4.30 – 3 – 1.30 – 12 for another seven reps before moving back to the left side – if you still got enough juice to go on as your chest will be on fire at this point.

I got 24 reps in the video above, which isn’t too shabby considering it was the third time I tried this exercise.

This is a fairly advanced ring movement, so make sure you build up to it over time by first mastering these 6 ring push-up variations.
