Strap Ring Fly
The Strap Ring Fly will challenge an athlete's straight arm strength while allowing the LARS strap to support them in their most vulnerable range of motion. This is still quite difficult for the biceps.

Strap Ring Fly
- Set a pair of gymnastic rings just off the floor.
- Be sure you have a set of leverage assisted ring strength straps (LARS straps) attached.
- Slip your arms through the straps, fix them around the thickest part of your forearm, and grab ahold of the rings.
- Assume a proper straight arm plank position with your shoulders over your hands.
- Turn the rings outward, past parallel, and then push your hands straight out to the side.
- Be sure you maintain straight elbows and a 90-degree armpit angle as you lower.
- Descend until your chest is level with your shoulders (your arms should make a letter T shape) and press back up to plank.
- At no time should your elbows bend. Use the straps to help you keep your arms straight and repeat for reps.
