How to perform Ring Handstand Push-Up

1. Set both rings to the same height with clearance for the inverted press, and grip one ring in each hand.
2. Establish a freestanding ring handstand with straight elbows and a controlled body line; keep the legs and feet clear of the straps.
3. Push tall through the shoulders at the top rather than pulling the shoulders down away from the ears.
4. Bend the elbows and lower between the rings under control, keeping the body balanced without strap contact.
5. Lower toward shoulder level with the ring handles only through a range you can control and reverse.
6. Press back to straight elbows and an actively supported overhead position without kicking or using the straps.
