Evolution Of Victorian Cross (2005 - 2017) - Danny Pinheiro Rodriguez 

@@smaillemcharki9984 starting with the attitude of normalizing it It is our inheritance to be even stronger than that

@@rashoietolan3047 You actually think humans were “meant to be” stronger than what’s shown in this video?

And Rayan

No points?

Straight up like “lemme hold this Victorian, ok take a breather aaaaand back into it.”

3:28

2.02 he does the top 4 hardest statics

@@markiyanhapyak349 1:44

Daniel 115 lol

Prime example is Saitama

Caruso?

@@pedroarmaganijan4864 probably wears a wig

@@smitapawah4236 true

Good eyes , but we can go even further this

Did you do it tho?

@@xdXd-rs5hk not victorian of course lol

i mean front lever bruh

@@xdXd-rs5hk oh, I stopped for 2 months after may but I achieved at least 10 sec frontlever then (max 13 sec). Personal reasons why but I'm back to working out again though just twice a week and mostly just weights and cardio, again for personal reasons

At least you are giving 100% of yourself, good to hear that. I achieved full front lever hold for 5 seconds after 14 months of training so we both belong to front lever club now 8)

Caruso can hold it better but he probably cant do any of these combos that rodrigues is doing

@@eliasosterhus6265 yeah cuz Caruso is calisthenics, these guys are gymnast

His Victorian cross is the closest you'll find to perfection. Holding a position like that just for 2 or 3 secs requires insane strength

@@TheAnarchist99 very true brother, no doubt..just a funny thought..😉

@@vishnusv860 what's funny? This guy worked on the Victorian cross for years and you find it funny???

@@TheAnarchist99 And now Maniel Caruso has achieved a very clean front lever to victorian straight arm press. Of course it's not on olympic height rings but it's insanely clean. I am thrilled to find out what people will achieve in the next years.

Hades Theon Chthonius mind-blowing. Next would be reverse planche on rings or full manna on rings 🤯🤯 seemingly impossible but those Italians will figure it out

2009 in London was almost perfect...and then the dismount...

Execution is not too good :/

He is strong but by far not as clean as other gymnasts on his level. Foe example arched back ind his planche. Or lack of depth in his inverted cross.

@@sk8kevhdf he usually went pretty low with his legs in the malteses too. I think that's the cost of focusing more on the victorian, you can't clean the other elements

It’s super easy to lose score in gymnastics, if you don’t know the judging criteria it’s hard to spot but it’s there

bhuuthesecond that’s the same guy lmao

There's a video called "hardest victorians on street workout" dragon press and reverse planche appears in that video

Republic Of pink I practice dragon press 2 weeks and it’s already one of my favourite, I’ll think about make a lot of variations :D

De nazi dea

Aguante el Molinari wachos

M C yeah wtf

You are ne to AMV

Michaela Lavigne bad machine / Seconds away

PractiseTV thank you!

ben playsgames How difficult is the victorian cross compared to full planche on rings?

I'm the Tengri I actually can only do a one legged one. (Meaning one leg is tucked and the other leg is out) I would say Victorian is twice as hard.(about) I only held it for 2 seconds. And those 2 seconds felt like forever. The problem is when I watched my form, I wasn’t completely straight so I do need some work.

@@hamoudhabibi1996 10x as difficult, full planche on rings is a simple easy element, Vic on rings is the most advanced static on rings

AutismAlert bruh, guess never gonna be able to do a victorian

@@autismalert2788 man Victorian is hard but how is full planche is easy?

Not the same form at all, what's the point to do new elements if it's not clean? Rodriguez is better.

Lats, triceps, rear delts and rhomboids.

​@@mwkibomiazawa1003 biceps?

Not that much to not at all I would say, from my experience with front lever and Victorian on p-bar, but I don't know, why the biceps ?

@@mwkibomiazawa1003 don't they work a lot with the front lever?

@@georgepetrou501 No they don't, you want your arms extended not retracted and that's what the triceps are for

the Victorian Cross is on a whole new level of difficulty compared to the Swallow (Maltese Planche on rings)

Victorian from far

They're both crazy good but Petrounias has better dismounts and Van Gelder has better strength element combos

Be a genetic freak

There's a reason why most olympic still ring champions don't perform it

front lever and it variation s , front lever pull ups, dragon press, assisted victorian

To begin you must aquire a pretty strong false grip as good on each kind of bars as for rings as for Iron, maltese and any kind of cross. After you must understand that the Victorian Cross or inverted swallow is the "Cross version" of the front lever that everyone knows. Thus you must be able to execute a clean, long and perfect ring front lever with False grip. Only to begin. After the relationship is mandatory to strengthen specific muscle groups active during the element especially adds, glutes, shoulders, triceps, biceps, lower back, scapula and forearms by bodybuilding such as triceps bodybuilding (concentric, exentric and isometric), dragon flag series, and to finish : dragon press and shoulders assisted dragon press both cause the dragon press works on your arms too but to have control and clean form the shoulders' assistance stills required. However look for : Courtney Tulloch, Danny Rodrigez and Carmona. Those are victorian experts

Probably front lever with 2kg ankle weights

Just do it and complement with front lever, is not that hard i dont know why people have difficulties with this move

@@user-nf4qd8wr1u for me it's the hardest static but thanks

Nooa Vehkaoja well hardest that’s considered possible... reverse planche and full manna on rings are much harder but probably impossible

Nooa Vehkaoja o you said “for me” lol

@@zambuzan well yes those excercises take generations to master

You don’t like something because it takes time and dedication 🧐

@Illia S. the amount of effort it takes to get to a certain level is a log function.

It's not his fault it's earth gravity's fault lol

@@TheAnarchist99 or our anatomy's fault ahah

@@OneDerscoreOneder not really, he was alos training for planches,maltese,cross, inverted, cross, swings, what make Victorian is rate is the fact that it doesn't train the muscles used in planche, so the strength transfer isn't that large ,you need to train 2 extremly hard skills that doesn't use the same muscles

Do*

@@JerryDaBes Gracias por la corrección 😅

Nope, his elbows are permanently straight, so he can only do straight arm muscle up or butterflies

Pretty sure any junior gymnast can... but "pull ups" have no difficulty value on the code.

Nathan Bergmann damn your life really had to be sad if you did such comments. Hope you got better.

he said that he doesn't know a single rings gymnast who didn't get shoulder surgery before

Victorian is like a front lever but 1000 times harder

So, are you implying it's not extremely difficult?

@@bhuuthesecond no it's difficult, but impossible without steroids / enhancements. In any sport, the top tier athletes are all using something. Look how long Lance Armstrong went until he openly admitted it years later.

@@wh0586 I completely agree with everything you're saying but I can't imagine somebody in the early Olympics before enhancements, steroids, and advanced nutrition was developed not being able to do the rings. Maybe not as nuts as the modern gymnasts, but I really think it's possible to develop the strength over a lifetime of serious training.

@@bhuuthesecond no of course they could do the rings, but not this perfect and this astonishing. It's like with bodybuilding, if you understand muscle growth, you realise there is a limit to what a natural person can grow and maintain, there is literally a limit. Steroids and other substances allow a person to go beyond that, hence why everyone at the top of bodybuilding is on steroids. Most major league baseball players will be on something, same for football, basketball, you name it and you'll find enhancements at the top for sure

Muscle growth and ped that strength muscles aren't good for gymnasts, they effect tendons strength and healing, in rings tendons strength are far more important than muscles

Not perfect? Are you kidding? The anatomy of human body can't let the VictorianCross seen perfectly

I agree, not for the Victorian cross, but for like planches and handstands, a little too much of arc in the back ( talking like a judge, just comparing him to other top Athlete)

@@justaguyfromreddit that's the sacrifice to take if you want the front strength or perfect victorian cross(push strength exchange for pull strength)

@@justaguyfromreddit oh i see, but in competitions he always focused on the VictorianCross, the transition from other skills to VictorianCross let him couldn't perform them perfectly

@Ariolimax C. No! 100% no. I know Bruno or Caruso can do VictorianCross really well, but they are not on the same level. Rodriguez brings the VictorianCross to world class gymnastic-competitions. It's extremely harder than just perform it solely in street workout
