Olympic rings have been used in the training of some of the strongest athletes in Olympic history and continue to stand the test of time by being an amazing workout tool throughout almost two centuries of use. However, many people who have never tried Olympic ring training or any other suspended bodyweight training often wonder why they would even bother when they already get results from standard gym equipment. The reason to try them is that they will take basic exercises like push-ups, dips, and pull-ups to the next level.

Because Olympic Rings are hanging and not a solid structure (such as pull-up bar) they add the element of instability to your workout. Exercises tend to be harder because you are balancing throughout the movements, resulting in engaging your core and stabilizer muscles along with the targeted muscle in each and every exercise.

Researchers now believe that exercises that engage entire muscle groups (such as with ring training) as oppose to standard muscle isolating exercises are better for the body because entire muscle group movement is closer to the way our bodies engage in day-to-day tasks. (I.e. lifting a box) It has also been found that because of the added instability factor you can achieve better results with fewer reps when using rings over standard equipment.

Another great benefit of Olympic Rings is that because they are not locked into a static position they allow for the wrists to be able to rotate more naturally (as oppose to with standard gym equipment). This makes exercises more comfortable, easier on joints, and therefore less likely to cause injury.  

Other benefits of ring training:

  • Promotes the development of a lean, defined physique like a gymnast
  • Develops high strength to size ratio
  • Highly effective abdominal workout and excellent core workout
  • Portable training method – all you need is rings and somewhere to hang them!
  • Scalable training with exercises suitable for beginners and experts
  • Good plateau buster

The main exercises that can be done with Olympic rings are: push-ups, dips, pull-ups, scarecrows and the iron cross. Ring training is a great addition to any exercise routine. It won’t develop an overly muscular frame, but a solid, well-rounded and defined physique. A functional body that not only looks athletic, but is able to perform.

Dragons Den Astone Fitness

On May 10, 2012 Astone Fitness and The Human Trainer came face to face with CBC’s Dragons. We brought all our weapons with us, including the entire Human Trainer family, our team, and our impenetrable bullet-proof rack. We have finished filming and it is planning to air this Fall Season.

Hold on, what’s Dragon’s Den?

The Human TrainerDragons’ Den, similar to Shark Tank, is a Canadian television show (yes, we are Canadian!) where entrepreneurs and businesses present their ideas to a panel of venture capitalists. Ideas range from granola, electronics, to community programs. We’ll be facing Jim Treliving (co-owner of Boston Pizza and Mr. Lube), Arlene Dickinson (owner of Venture Communications), Kevin O’Leary (co-host on CBC, former president of The Learning Company), David Chilton (author, owner of a financial planning business and a publishing company ), and Bruce Croxon (founder of Lavalife and owner of Vida Wellness Spas). We’re looking to show the world what we’ve got. We stand behind all our products and it’s time The Human Trainer takes centre stage.

It’s never too late or early to start thinking about your health. Young or old, every step forward you take counts tremendously in the end. Proactivity is the best activity. Take a look at some of our youngest fitness fanatics on The Human Trainer and Ripcords.

During soccer practice, a few young athletes were giving us a run for our money! We believe health and exercise should be incorporated into our lives every day in a fun way. All our exercise equipment are designed exactly to do that. It should never be boring drills, something you dread, or keeps you cooped up inside. And we’ve never seen more enthusiastic kids (and maybe more than some adults!) who want to get out and get moving.

Being active at a young age is beneficial for many reasons:

  1. Builds teamwork and trust
  2. Gives children the opportunity to socialize and interact with one another
  3. Kids learn more about their bodies
  4. Exercise is a great outlet for all that extra energy
  5. A kickstart to a healthier heart, mind, and body
And if you’re thinking,”I don’t have that type of energy anymore,” there are many ways adults can be more active, rejuvenate, and catch up to your kids. Here are some simple fitness and health tips:
