Ring Muscle-Up

Compound · Weight × reps

Catch a stable bottom-dip position, then press to straight-arm support before reversing the sequence under control. The strict ring muscle-up combines pulling, transition, and pressing strength for the back, arms, chest, shoulders, grip, and trunk. Master false-grip hangs, high ring rows or pull-ups, deep controlled ring dips, and low-ring transitions first. Use low rings and foot assistance while learning, and do not force a transition through wrist or shoulder pain.
