Grips for legs
ATC Handels GmbH Pilates Ring, 38 cm
A 38 cm ring with rounded grips stated to suit legs as well as hands, with the listing describing the exercises position by position.
What the maker publishes
- 38 cm diameter
- Two rounded grips, stated to give stable, comfortable hold for the hands
— and to be optimally shaped for the legs, so those hold the ring well too
- Used by holding it in the hands or clamping it between the legs and
repeatedly pressing together
- Light and compact; named for pilates, yoga, competitive sport and
rehabilitation
- Two exercises described step by step: arms extended forward, squeezing at the
grips for chest and arms; and lying on the back with the ring between thighs
or calves
The grips, for legs
The one genuine idea in this listing, and no other maker on this shelf
mentions it.
A pilates ring spends at least half its working life between the knees, the
thighs or the ankles — not between the hands. A grip moulded to a palm sits
badly against a thigh, and one that rolls off mid-repetition ends the set.
Saying the grips were shaped for both is a design statement. Every other
listing in this family describes grips as if hands were the only user.
The listing explains what to do
Two exercises, written out: where to sit, where the ring goes, what squeezes.
That sounds trivial and is not. A pilates ring is an inert hoop and its whole
value is knowing which body part to put it between. Two products in this family
supply a poster; this one puts the instructions in the listing.
Thirty-eight centimetres
The shelf median. Four of the six rings that publish a diameter give 38 cm.
Left off the listing
The material. Three rings here name a fibreglass core; this one names
nothing, for the hoop or for the grips.
The mass — “light” is a comparison.
The hoop thickness, and the resistance, as on every ring in this
family.
Availability
From 17 € to 26 € across the German, French and Italian Amazon stores, on the one reading this page rests on.
The Spanish Amazon store was asking more than 1.6× the cheapest country. A gap that wide normally means stock shipped in rather than a seller on the ground, so that figure sits outside the range above.
The American and British Amazon stores returned nothing at all, so the buy button there opens a search rather than an empty page.
These figures are what Keepa returned on the day this page was last written. Stock and prices move without notice.
