The classic rings feat. Build straight-arm strength until you can hold the body between the rings with the arms horizontal.
Before this progression: Turned-Out Support Hold Ring Dip
This is a tip: you can start anyway.
Open the arms wide and pull them back together — the cross pattern under light load.
Straight-arm horizontal hold facing down. Builds the locked-elbow strength the cross demands.
Let the rings travel out to the sides, then pull back to support without bending the elbows.
Arms horizontal, body hanging between the rings, elbows locked.
Sink from a rings handstand to a cross with the body inverted.
