Excellent! Bent arm strength is looking good. How is straight arm coming?

I'm near to achieve 1 rep of iron cross pullout, i've never tested the cross yet, but probably i will achieve it before the pullout. for now is the only one adv skill that i'm training. it will come, patience and patience, the good thing is that i do not feel stress on joint!

Looking good! But turn those rings out at the top. 

Alessandro Mainente

Yu're right!

I'm sure you will achieve the iron cross static before an iron cross pull. Did you also fix your form for the rings HBP?

Alessandro Mainente

Definitely yes but for now i'm following the foundation before return to serious Rings Routine. For now i'm using the rings hbp to move from support to HS that is required for my level routine (at least a form of press to h from support). i've refined it using both foundation especially PE20 and by putting an elevated surface in front of me exactly at rings height or a little bit more, in this way i'm forced to push in a multiplane patternmore then a shoulder stand then vertical press (that was my biggest mistake).
