The Ring Push-up should look the same as the Parallete Push-up which should be the same as the standard Push-up.  Hands below shoulders, elbows back and at your sides, core tight in a solid plank position, thighs do NOT touch the ground and head stays neutral and does not sag.  Push-ups should not: sag, have flared elbows out (this internally rotates the shoulders), and hips/thighs should stay above the ground unless they are assisted or hand-release push-ups.
