How to do it

Let the rings guide your balance rather than pull you upward.

  1. 1

    Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, facing the suspension trainer.

  2. 2

    Hold the rings at chest height with your elbows bent.

  3. 3

    Shift your weight to one leg and squat down, keeping the other leg straight to the side.

  4. 4

    Push through the heel of your squatting leg to return to the starting position.

  5. 5

    Repeat on the other side for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your core engaged throughout the movement to maintain balance and stability.
