Rings Two Builds Next-Level Ring Skill for the Strength Enthusiast
In the years since we released Rings One, a lot has happened.
Information on ring training is a lot easier to come by, and there are a lot more people teaching ring skills than before. Unfortunately, there’s still a shortage of programming the average person can follow to apply this information safely and effectively.
We’ve seen thousands of people apply the methods in R1 to build stronger bodies and impressive skills.
Along the way, we’ve listened to their feedback and refined the GMB Method to balance the necessary hard work with proper recovery so you can progress at the ideal rate for your own needs.
One thing that hasn’t changed is our commitment to crystal clear instruction of the fundamental basic components of each movement, because mastering the basics thoroughly is essential before beginning advanced practice.
This program is our answer to those of you who have asked us how to take that foundation to the next level.
A Clear Path To “Advanced” Gymnastic Ring Skills
Notice the quotes: “advanced”
There’s a world of difference between what’s advanced for the average fitness enthusiast versus a competitive gymnast.
For a gymnast, skills like the iron cross are not considered advanced at all, but they don’t live in the same world you and I do. That’s a specialized sports environment, and I don’t think you want to train twenty hours a week.
Rings Two teaches you solid progressions for handstands, rolls, kips, front levers, back levers, and even progressing towards the iron cross. And if you’re properly prepared for the training, you can complete the program in as little as five months.
Don’t get us wrong – this is NOT a shortcut program.
Skills like the iron cross require massive tendon strength that can only be developed over many months of training.
Trying to move too fast will only lead to injury and frustration, but R2 will build up your strength methodically, so after each run through the program, you’ll have made clearly visible progress on increasingly difficult skills.
R2 is designed from the ground up to provide the most efficient way for non-gymnasts to build strength for general fitness.
How GMB Programs Work
Our coaches have worked with thousands of recreational and pro athletes, and our clients span all ages and backgrounds, so our programs are accessible to a variety of needs.
Systematic Skill Progression
There are no shortcuts when it comes to progressions for higher-level gymnastic ring training. R2 provides incremental steps in skill and joint conditioning that make it more accessible to non-gymnasts.
Integrated Attribute Development
Knowing how to perform an iron cross isn’t enough. Your muscles and joints must be prepared for the torque of high-leverage holds. R2 prepares your body for years of exploration and practice.
Completely Adaptable to Your Needs
The skills in are completely modular, so you can practice it either as a unified program or just use the lever progressions to supplement another training program. The choice is yours.
A Program that Grows with You
Unlike some programs that give you a single workout to repeat forever, GMB recognizes that you’ll require different strategies as your strength and skills develop. That’s why Rings Two includes four program phases, each building on the previous one to keep you making consistent progress.
1. Attribute Development
The skills we’re aiming at require not just strength, but specific joint preparation to prevent tendon injuries. Phase 1 lays the foundation for the intense work to follow.
3. Flow Acquisition
With the basic movements in place, you’ll practice mini-routines that increase the intensity by stringing more moves together with less rest
2. Skill Development
As you continue to strengthen your body, you’ll also work on transitioning smoothly and fluidly between the movements to build combinations and more complex skills.
4. Flow “Mastery”
Finally, you’ll put all your new strength and skills to good use in performing the complete flow routine, by which you’ll refine and polish your abilities.
Impressive Movements Made Accessible
Here’s what a few of our clients say about Rings Two:
I’ve recommended the Rings Two program to others already, and do it at times with a partner when I can get one. It’s a lot more ‘user-friendly,’ compared to the imperious attitude of some other online courses. Thanks again.
The R2 training program has a clear structure with defined exercises, repetitions and sets. The clear and simple structure minimizes a mental overcharge (overthinking). This helps me simply focus on every rep in every set, without getting fatigued by having to think about what is still unaccomplished. Since every move is taught in a gradual progession, it is possible to follow the training program and get progress step by step.

5 Months worth of sample training charts
