Ring Parallel Inverted Row to Floor the

1. Setup:

   • Hang the gymnastics rings from a sturdy anchor point, ensuring they are at waist height. If using TRX straps, set them to the appropriate length for your height.

2. Starting Position:

   • Stand facing the rings and grasp them with an overhand grip (palms facing down).

   • Walk your feet forward until your body is at an angle, creating a straight line from your head to your heels.

   • Your arms should be fully extended, and your body should be parallel to the floor.

3. Body Positioning:

   • Keep your core tight and engage your glutes to maintain a straight body line.

   • Your heels should be on the floor or elevated slightly, depending on your strength level.

4. Performing the Row:

   • Pull your chest towards the rings by bending your elbows and retracting your shoulder blades.

   • Keep your elbows close to your body as you lift.

   • Focus on squeezing your back muscles at the top of the movement.

5. Return to Starting Position:

   • Slowly lower your body back to the starting position by extending your arms fully.

   • Maintain control throughout this movement to avoid swinging or momentum.

6. Repetitions:

   • Perform 8-12 repetitions for 3 sets, resting for 30-60 seconds between sets.

Tips for Beginners:

• If this exercise feels too challenging, start with your feet closer to the ground to reduce the angle of your body.

• Keep practicing regular rows or other back exercises to build strength.

• Focus on form rather than the number of repetitions to prevent injury.
