Exercise Steps

	Attach the rings to a sturdy overhead object (pullup bar, rafter, etc)
	Start with shortened straps until you get comfortable with this exercise. Grab the handles and with your shoulders down (not shrugged) and straighten your arms out away from you.
	Once you feel a nice stretch on your chest, squeeze your arms together with a slight bend in the elbow. Squeeze your chest as tight as you can at the end of the exercise.
	Maintain core tension throughout the exercise. Grip the handles tightly and only go as far as your shoulder flexibility and strength permits. To Ring Fly's easier, shorten the straps and stand up straight. To make it harder, lengthen the straps and bring your body closer to the floor.
