They'll separate the men from the boys in a hurry - but I'm way too old for that action.

How old are you considering too old? I am 32.

Yeah, those rings.

Mine are hanging from my pullup bar, so they are too low to do pullups. But I have been doing dips on them, and they are kicking my ass.

Made a set a few years ago with PVC pipe and sand.  Even just doing something pullups with them is harder than with a bar.

brace your heels on the floor, lock out your legs/back, and do kind of a row/pullup.  Or put the rings really low and do pushups.
