- Begin from a dead hang on gymnastic rings and begin to perform a pull-up.
- As soon as your elbows bend, begin pulling the rings apart.
- Continue pulling up until your hands are level with and wider than your shoulders.
- Do not allow your elbows to drift in front of your body line as you pull.
- At the top, your forearms should be perpendicular to the floor.
- Lower with control and repeat.
