about the Ring Thing: Iron Cross program

The goal with this plan is to build foundational technique for the Iron Cross and to prepare the joints (specifcally the elbows and shoulders) for the unique stress seen in the Iron Cross.

Holy crap it’s awesome, besides the massive pull to the gonads we are having a blast. We aren’t rings specialist but we’re definitely learning a lot about body control.

I'm 59, and going from a back lever to straddle planche, to a maltese is not only a great workout, but it just feels damn good. The ability to do a muscle up to an iron cross, to a pull and back down to an iron cross, 10 or more times is really a beastly little workout, this is the coolest fitness product.

The Ring Thing is the BEST training tool for muscle ups, pull ups, the iron cross or any other ring skill! The Power Monkey Training app makes it easy to learn tons of skill progressions with the Ring Thing on my own, super helpful!
