The Push-Up with Ring Assist refines upper body strength and core control. Scapular stabilizers, pectorals, triceps, and transversus abdominis engage for stability and precision. Start in plank, ring under the sternum. Lower in three counts, then press back to start. Modify with knees down or challenge yourself by removing the ring. This variation builds strength, alignment, and control—hallmarks of Pilates movement.
