    Ring dips are so hard for girls. I don’t know anybody of them who can really do it

      Yes, they are hard! I suggest using the leg band (seen in the pic) and a spotter or modify the exercise to tricep dips on a bench with your feet on the floor. Once you build up strength by training weekly with the tricep dips then try the ring dip with a band! :)
