Gymnastic Rings - What to Look Out For When Buying?

Gymnastic or acrobatic rings are one of the classic pieces of gymnastics equipment. Exercises using them combine circus spectacle with athletic strength and sports grace. It’s no wonder then that gymnastic rings can be found not only in gymnastics schools but also in home gyms. They can serve as equipment for intense cross-training as well as an essential element of gymnastic exercises or even aerial activities.

Acrobatic rings, although seemingly modest, require a tremendous amount of strength. Therefore, exercising with them can strengthen muscles, improve movement coordination, and increase body awareness. As equipment, they are also a great way to introduce something new and exciting into your training routine. Moreover, the rings can be used by everyone - regardless of age. Gymnastic rings for children are increasingly appearing in acrobatic training for the youngest, as well as in children's bedrooms. Exercising and playing on them develop psychomotor skills, improve balance, and enhance fitness. In other words, gymnastic rings can bring benefits to anyone looking for an unusual way to stay active. However, to make this possible, it is first necessary to choose high-quality rings. Those tested and meeting appropriate standards can be found in our offer.

Which acrobatic rings to choose?

When choosing gymnastic rings, there are several factors to consider. The most important are: maximum load, material type, and ring diameter.

The maximum load can vary for each product, so it's worth checking this parameter first - it determines whether using the product will be safe. Most gymnastic rings have a load capacity of up to 200 kg. Gymnastic rings for children may have a lower max load. The same applies to the diameter of the rings. The larger the hands, the larger the diameter should be. As for the type of material, there are mainly two types available on the market: plastic rings and wooden rings. The latter, if of high quality, have very good grip.

How to hang gymnastic rings?

The gymnastic rings should be hung at a width equal to the distance between the shoulders of the person who will be exercising. For mounting, ropes or straps are needed, which should be threaded through a carabiner suspended from a suspension point. It is advisable to consult specialists about the installation method. Gymnastic rings should not be mounted in a suspended ceiling.
