Technique
How to perform Ring One-Arm Push-Up
- Set one ring low enough for the intended push-up angle and grip it with your working hand.
- Extend both legs behind you with your feet spread on the floor; use the free hand only to settle the starting position.
- Remove the free hand and hold your shoulders and hips approximately square.
- Bend the working elbow to lower your chest toward the ring while keeping your torso from sagging or twisting.
- Press through the ring to straighten your elbow, without using the free hand or rotating to finish the repetition.
- Reset under control before changing arms.
