How to perform Ring Ab Rollout

  1. Set the rings at about knee height and grip the rings with both hands.

  3. Slowly push the rings forward along their natural arc upward and out, stretching your body into a straight position.
  4. Go out as far as you can without sagging your body.
  5. Breathe in during this portion of the movement.
  6. After a pause at the stretched position, start pulling yourself back to the starting position as you breathe out.
  7. Go slowly and keep your abs tight at all times.
