Quarter Rings

Quarter Rings

Made from weather-resistant, non-slip polypropylene, AbMat 1/4 Rings offer the benefits of standard gymnastic ring training in a new low-profile format. Users simply need to hang the webbing straps over a pull-up bar and slip the Quarter Ring through the loop to create a self-supporting rings station—equipped for any body type and body weight. AbMat Quarter Rings are sold in pairs and available here in black. The ring diameter is 1.3” (by comparison, a standard Rogue Wood Ring is 1.25”) and the webbing is 5/8” black nylon. The rings’ lightweight portability makes them easy to transport to the gym, park, or further afield, and they’re particularly well suited for training spaces with low ceilings, where traditional gym rings can pose challenges.

What is a Cable Attachment?

What cable attachments are

Cable attachments are the handles and bars that clip to a cable machine, functional trainer, or lat/row station to change the exercise — lat bars, triceps ropes, single-D handles, row/close-grip handles, ankle straps, and more. A small set of them turns one cable stack into dozens of movements.

What to look for

A rotating swivel or ball-bearing joint keeps the cable from twisting and lets the handle track your arm; comfortable, durable grips (knurled metal, rubber, or coated nylon) survive heavy use; and a standard carabiner or snap fits most machines. Match the attachment to the exercises you actually train rather than buying a giant kit you won’t use.
