Suspension Trainer Push-up, Rings

Video coming soon...

The suspension trainer push-up with rings is a highly effective workout for targeting the chest muscles.

By using the suspension trainer, the workout engages the chest muscles more intensely than traditional push-ups.

The rings provide instability, forcing the chest muscles to work harder to stabilize the body during the exercise.

While the workout also engages the shoulders and triceps, the primary focus is on the chest muscles.

Start by attaching the suspension trainer to a sturdy anchor point above you.
Stand facing away from the anchor point and hold the handles with an overhand grip.
Walk your feet forward until your body is at a slight angle, keeping your arms straight.
Engage your core and lower your chest towards the handles, bending your elbows.
Pause when your chest is just above the handles, then push back up to the starting position.
Keep your body straight and avoid sagging or arching your back throughout the movement.
Repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions.

Focus on maintaining a strong plank position throughout the exercise. Engage your core, squeeze your glutes, and keep your body in a straight line from head to toe. This will not only target your chest muscles but also work your entire upper body and core.
Keep your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart on the suspension trainer rings. This will allow for a greater range of motion and better activation of your chest muscles. Make sure to grip the rings firmly to maintain stability and control throughout the movement.
Lower your body down slowly and with control, emphasizing the eccentric phase of the exercise. This will maximize the muscle activation in your chest and help build strength. Avoid rushing through the movement and focus on the mind-muscle connection to really feel your chest muscles working.
As you push yourself back up, imagine squeezing your chest muscles together and pushing the rings away from your body. This visualization technique can help you engage your chest muscles more effectively and get the most out of each repetition.
To further challenge your chest muscles, try elevating your feet on a bench or step. This will increase the difficulty of the exercise and place more emphasis on your upper chest. Remember to maintain proper form and control throughout the movement, even with the added challenge.
