Cobra Pose Strech with gym rings

The cobra stretch on gymnastic rings is a variation of the classic cobra stretch, using the rings to support and intensify the stretch. This exercise mobilizes the spine and stretches the shoulder and chest muscles, making it especially beneficial for people with sedentary jobs. By performing it on the rings, the shoulders and chest can be stretched at an angle that isn’t possible with the traditional cobra push-up on the floor.
