I was experimenting with it a lot. And my conclusion is that side lateral dumbell raises still hits my mid-delt way better then ring version of it. For my horizontal pull I do ring rows with elbows flared, and then I do ring face pulls with chest pointed to the sealing as much as possible ( to make mid-delt work some ) after which I do dumbell lateral raises. Dumbel version is still the best mid-delt hypertrophy exercise. Ring rows with elbows flared to make mid back work more then lats since my main exercise is weighted chin up before all this even start. For the end of pull session, I do 2 sets of ring biceps curls and/or pelican curls to emphasize different head of the biceps for full biceps hypertrophy.
Mein herr, Your back is incredible. I started working out with rings about one year ago. I use the reverse fly on the rings as a finisher for my shoulder workouts. The rings are so much more dynamic. Incredible content! Thank you!
Wow, thank you very much for your praise! ☺Regarding the subscriptions, this was only my third video (if you even count the first, which is basically just me training). And there was a ten month hiatus between this and the previous one. So I'm pretty confident the channel will grow, if I keep video of this or even better quality coming at a somewhat higher frequency - which I definitely intend to do.
Thanks! And yes, will do. I do actually have some ideas for legs I will present, if not in the next video (which is already in the making) but probably soon after that.
No matter what you think you know about rings is always turned on its side with Cool exercises like this. There's an obsession with getting things like ring muscle up or iron Cross but an exercise like this Bridges a whole bunch of things that would keep you from being able to do some of those more complicated moves. I got all right at chin-ups for a while but then I had a friend say I needed to try Australian Pull-Ups. It was amazing how weak I was in that plane of motion and if I would have had a cool exercise like this to be able to strengthen those weak areas I could probably could have gotten a lot more. The hollow position and the various angles you can get with a set of rings are fantastic. Thanks for a really great video
This probably hits the rear delts just as much as the lateral heads. I do reverse flies like this and they're great, but it's too difficult to scale to effectively hit the lateral heads.
I guess, which head is targeted more, may also differ from person to person. Scapulae in general and humeroglenoidal joint sockets in particular are not all created equal, after all. Nor are the structures around them, e.g. muscle insertions.
i ve been waiting for the video both inverted hang and doing lateral raises which called reverse iron cross (its nearly impposible) or video about doing horizontally leaned back rear delt flies which mimics the standing lateral raise. really appreciate your effort i ve been looking for someone to come up with the idea for lateral raises on rings

@@cricke6011 Thanks a lot! I really like that channel, but hadn't seen that video before. And I have to admit, I tried but couldn't figure out a working setup for that floor version myself.
Okay so the arch at the start is helping to use less mid-traps it seems. I think it would still be fine to do them in a more upright position though, perpendicular to the straps, since the side delts would give out way before the mid-traps. We can see that here at 3:50 with where the side delt is with an upright body position, and it's perfect for side delts (ignoring for now that the rotator cuff would give out first), but then at 4:04 it doesn't work out as nicely, but that's because the ring straps are now less perpendicular to the body due to the change in hand position, so the side delts can't get behind the body anymore. The straps would need a lower attachment point or the body would need to be more perpendicular to the straps, then the upright body position would work just fine (though it would use some more mid-traps). This was a great video for seeing the changes with body positioning, really helpful. Now I know that if the attachment point is high and can't be lowered, bending my elbows can get some extra hand-height to get more perpendicular to the straps and also make it easier (just not with perfectly relatively vertical forearms, since that would be a lot of rotator cuffs).
@@kestercairs My next video, due this week, is about a leg training hack. But I would love to show you something for the traps, too. I can't make any promises, though, because I don't want to bore everyone with stuff that has already been demonstrated on RUclips several times before. So it always depends on whether or not I have at least one original and useful idea.
The more you start with your upper body horizontal to the floor, the more you will engage the lateral head of your deltoid muscle. If you don't lean back far enough or if the straps of your rings are too short, the movement will turn into a rear delt exercise, that's right.
Great Video! I am getting creative a bit with some exercises as well. By the way face pulls have pretty high side delt involvement as well. I didn't think about it as well, but saw data about muscle engagement in this exercise in another video and when you think about the exercise and where the tension is, it makes sense. One more thing. To train with most resistance at start of exercise for side delts like you mention here to add to normal standing/leaning forwars lateral raises. I like to lay on my side on a bench (more range of motion) or the floor with a dumbell, hope you can imagine the exercise. But I will definitely give this one a try. I make some hybrid between these and high rows for upper back already. Just a lot muscles involved with some ring exercises. Nice video :) !!
Thank you for your elaborate comment! Yes, I am familiar with the lateral raises on a bench you have mentioned. And I agree: Normal face pulls do have a higher side delt involvement than is usually advertised.
I haven't yet, but I will. Thank you for the suggestion! 👍 I figure, the proprioceptive factor would be pretty high, due to the long transmission. But in order to determine whether or not this would be a useful new stimulus, I definitely have to test it first.
Static inverted hang to reverse iron cross Very very very very few people can do it, a good gymnast cannot do reverse iron cross, it has to be a very good one or legendary gymnast to perform one, let alone raising from the inverted hang position without momentum.
@@duckinfinite Hmm, curious. Maybe it takes too much of a strain to the shoulders for them to try it. I mean, they have to do a lot of other elements in their routines.
Your YTshort from April 2024 brought me here. I could not guess the villain you were supposed to sound like until I read the comments. You do sound somewhat like Bane, but I would not have thought of it on my own. And the sound of Bane's voice is quite unique because of the mask. So idk.... some people just hear what they want to hear.
It looks that way. But it's actually exactly the opposite. Side lateral raises mean concentric abduction of the arm, whereas iron cross means static adduction. So these two different exercises train antagonistic (i.e. working against each other) muscle groups.
I have tiny bit but of experience with TRX so I agree with you. But you really have amazing upper body and core strength and stability!m scared to do that cause I had suffered torn shoulder
@@vijayurs568 it is hard at first. You should do progressive training. For e.g on dips if you can't stabilize yourself on rings, try assisted dips then isometric dips on top until you can easily stabilize yourself doing normal dips
Actually, I can't tell. So thank you for the idea! I will give it a try and let you know (or even make a video about it), if it turns out that it offers any advantage for any muscle.
I like dynamic dragon flags for the front and glute-ham-raises for the back of my core the most. But of course, I do plenty of other core exercises as well.
Good question. I, personally, don't really split between training on gymnastics rings and training with weights. Rather, I regard both as equally useful elements in the general pool of exercises I can pick from, in order to provide a variety of different training stimuli. For example, if it's back training and I happen to be in the gym, I might perform seated rows on a cable apparatus, which I don't have at home. Vice versa, my gym doesn't have rings, so at home, I would do bodyweight rows on rings instead. In both instances I would execute about the same number of sets and reps (e.g. 4 x 8-10) with about the same intensity. And that would cover the issue "horizontal pulling movement" in my training regime, no matter if I did it on rings, on a machine or with free weights. So my tip would be to make sure you cover all major movement patterns and choose the specific training method as you see fit. As long as you make good progress with a specific exercise, you might want to stick with it. But feel free to switch anytime, if the circumstances give rise to it, like in my gym-vs.-home example. It's a totally different matter, however, if your priority is to improve your calisthenics skills on rings, and you regard weights as just an auxiliary. That would be outside of my field of expertise, I'm afraid. In that case I would recommend FitnessFAQ and Calisthenicsmovement. They seem to be the most knowledgeable people on that subject.
@@creativetraininghacks thank you for your reply. I’ve recently started and am in the beginning stages and I’m trying to figure out the proper balance between rings and weights. My issue with rings is that although taxing, it is limiting in the kind of routine you can build when only possessing the beginner strength.
@@Blueblackngold Ok, though, of course, I don't know exactly what you mean by "beginner strength" (with or without rings), I would still like to encourage you to incorporate rings, even if it should only be possible for some static holds. That way, you will lay a great foundation for quicker improvements later by bullet-proofing your joints via the auxiliary muscles and improving your balance and coordination. If you can't perform even one dip on rings (when I first started with rings, I could easily do 20 on bars, but hardly 4 with bad form on rings. So it is completely normal to feel weak on rings, initially), you might still be able to staticly hold the top position for some time (e.g. for severals sets of 20 seconds). Same goes for push-ups, in case your strength level is even lower. Both dead and active hang are great, if it should be too early for pull-ups. And maybe you can already perform a few bodyweight rows with relatively high rings and bent knees? If not, just perform a few scapula retractions from that position (pulling the shoulder blades together horizontally). Relatively steep face pulls should also be possible yet. That was just a short brain storming of mine. I would like to encourage you to experiment yourself and figure out what you can and (yet) can't do on rings. And I wouldn't worry about a routine yet. First, I would get used to that marvellous piece of new equipment in a more playful manner.
You are creative indeed. I would never think about that. Also good alternative for home gym is just putting some bricks into bagpack and do standard laterals.
Like I said in the video: It's a derivative of a face pull. You can hardly call it just a face pull, if your hands don't get nearer to your face at all during the movement - which is the case, if you perform it with straight arms.
Have you tried them? How many reps can you do?
