Ring pullups are a challenging variation of the traditional pullup, performed using gymnastic rings. This exercise not only targets the back and arms but also engages stabilizer muscles due to the instability of the rings.

To perform a ring pullup, start by gripping the rings with a neutral grip, palms facing each other. Hang with your arms fully extended and your body straight. Pull yourself up by engaging your back and arm muscles, bringing your chest towards the rings. Keep your core tight to maintain stability. Lower yourself back to the starting position with control.
