Technique

How to perform Ring L-Sit Pull-Up

  1. Set the rings high enough to hang with your feet clear and take a firm shoulder-width grip.
  2. Lift your straight legs in front of you and hold the L-position with your torso controlled.
  3. Pull upward by bending your elbows and bringing your upper arms down toward your sides, allowing the rings to rotate naturally.
  4. Raise your chin above ring level without kicking or dropping the leg position.
  5. Lower under control until your elbows straighten, allowing your shoulder blades to move with the hang.
  6. Keep the legs lifted through the repetitions, then lower them and return to the floor.
