Technique

How to perform RTO Support Hold

1. Set the rings at a height that lets you enter support and return your feet to the floor under control.
2. Grip the rings and rise until your arms are straight and your legs are clear of the floor.
3. Keep the rings close beside your torso and maintain supported shoulders away from your ears.
4. Turn the handles outward so your palms face forward without bending your elbows.
5. Hold an upright steady body line with minimal swinging; keep your legs hanging or bend your knees for clearance.
6. Turn the rings back as needed and lower your feet to the floor under control.
