How to perform RTO Pseudo-Planche Push-Up
- Set the rings low and grip them with the handles turned outward.
- Walk your feet back into a straight plank and lean your shoulders forward beyond your hands.
- Maintain that forward position and keep your shoulder blades controlled as you bend your elbows.
- Lower your chest toward the rings while keeping your feet on the floor and your trunk steady.
- Press back to straight arms without shifting your shoulders backward to remove the lean.
- Repeat through the range in which you can maintain the same turnout and body line.
