Perform the following:

3 sets of; MU, 2 XR Dips, L-sit press shoulder stand, roll fwd into a MU to a shoulder stand, negative Reverse MU down to an inverted hang, 2 slow Negative Front Pulls, 2 slow Negative Back Pulls

5x15 seconds FL

5x15 seconds XR Strap HS

5x15 seconds German Hang

Finish the workout with 2x10 Wall Extensions.

notes:

1) Do not rest during the Ring strength series.

2) Strive to perform the MUs with an emphasis on strength; keeping the

kipping minimized or preferably eliminated all together. Be especially conscientious in locking your arms and turning out the rings at the top of each repetition

3) Progressions for developing the XR shoulder stand are found in the Basic Ring Strength 3 essay.

4) You may use the feet on the straps to slow your descent during the negative Reverse MU.

5) Use the position of your choice during the negative Front and Back Pulls that allows you to control the descent while still being challenging. The ascent and descent of these elements may both be performed in different positions.

6) Complete all 3 sets of the ring strength series prior to beginning the static hold position sets.

7) Rest at least 3-5 minutes between ring strength sets.

8 ) Perform the static hold sets as a single giant set; perform a set of FL, then move immediately to the XR Strap HS and then move immediately to the German Hang.

9) A short rest (30-60 sec) is allowed during the static hold positions work only after a single giant set has been completed.

My indoor ring setup doesn't have the space to perform todays ring series. Hung my rings from a tree in a nearby park (in the dark).

Pre-FSP's: 3x20s (F.Plank, R.Plank, Arch hold, Support); 4x15s (Hollow hold); 2x45s (chin grip d.hang)

30s between sets. 60s between exercises. Time= 18:15

Ring Series x3:

MU

Tuck press to SS

Front roll to MU

Tuck press to SS

Neg. reverse MU

2 neg tuck Front Pull

2 neg tuck Back Pull

5 mins between sets; Time= 14:40

3 rounds:

15s Tuck FL

15s XR support

15s German hang

60s between rounds. Time= 5mins

2x10 Wall extensions

- Scaling just about spot on for the ring series

- MU's not quite from full hang

- Never performed neg MU's before. Not nearly as difficult as expected

- Never performed front rolls to MU either. Technique obviously not perfect, so after the roll rings were out in front and wider than shoulders on sets 2/3. Still managed to grind through the MU ok though, which is cool.

- Elbows straight on pulls

- Forearms became v.fatigued

- Only did 3 static sets. XR support v.hard after the ring series. Should have done PB support or wall HS.

Good session :-)

Ha, intentional scaling my man :wink: Adding the extra dips would be too much for me right now. All good fun though.

Paulo
