A passive hang from gymnastic rings. The free-rotating grip recruits more stabilisers in the hands, forearms, and shoulder girdle than a fixed bar.

Grip a pair of gymnastic rings with a neutral grip, palms facing each other.
Hang with your arms fully extended and feet off the ground.
Let the rings rotate naturally; do not fight the grip.
Keep your shoulders engaged (no shrug to the ears) and core lightly braced.
Hold for the desired duration.
Choose a load and range you can control. These instructions are general guidance, not a substitute for individual coaching.
