Ring Chest Flies

Explanatory Video

Description

Start in a pushup position with your hands on the rings, palms facing each other. Lower your body by slowly spreading your arms out to the sides in a wide arc. Keep a slight bend in your elbows to protect the joints and ensure your core remains tight, maintaining a straight line from head to heels. Once you reach a deep stretch in your chest, squeeze your pectoral muscles to bring the rings back to the starting position under your chest. Control the movement throughout to stabilize the rings and avoid letting them drift too far.
