Both the pommel horse and the rings require significant upper body strength, but the rings demand even more muscle and stability. On the rings, athletes must support their entire body weight and perform dynamic movements while maintaining control, which engages the shoulders, chest, and core intensely. The pommel horse, while also challenging, primarily focuses on endurance and technique in leg and core strength, but does not require the same level of upper body muscle engagement as the rings. Therefore, the rings typically require more muscle strength overall.
