How To Perform the Ring Dips

  1. Start by gripping the gymnastic rings firmly and lifting yourself up so your arms are fully extended and your body is above the rings.
  2. Engage your core and keep your body straight, with your legs either bent or straight as per your comfort level.
  3. Slowly lower your body by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your body, until your shoulders are below your elbows.
  4. Pause briefly at the bottom, then push through your palms to extend your arms and return to the starting position.
  5. Throughout the movement, focus on keeping the rings stable and your body aligned.
  6. Exhale as you push up and inhale as you lower yourself down.
