Ring Dip without Straps

ExercisesGymnastics and Bodyweight
Written By

Performing a ring dip without straps demands more strength due to the wider hand position and loss of leverage.

Cues:

  • Start in a full turnout, lower to full depth, push back to a full turnout

  • Keep the torso upright and allow the shoulders to extend

  • Progress wider gradually based upon your skill level

Mistakes:

  • Failing to lockout - do regular ring dips, or push-ups instead

  • Making large increases to width without building up reps gradually
