      As is every olympic level rings gymnast. They are hard, give them a try. If you are heavy they are harder. If you are tall then you are heavy.

    Absolutely beautiful video! I love how this part goes so well with the song at 1:39. I wonder if Yuri ever watches these edits or knows how loved he is in the calisthenics community... He will always be a legend and my motivation

    i believe that even top athletes can have serious problems with addiction, and impulsive decisions.
    van gelder is one of the best on rings and made it to the top only to have it crumble because of his dopamine receptors and nucleus accumbens being focused towards a short term gain (fun and party) over the long term (becoming the best ringsman who ever lived).

    • @art_of_defying_gravity
      @art_of_defying_gravity  Před 6 měsíci +1

      I think everyone has his problems and we all have and will do mistakes. I think we shouldn't interpret too much.
      What we do know is that he is a great athlete and he deserves this.

      @@art_of_defying_gravity i am not trying to speculate or imagine things beyond what all the involved people, including van gelder, have said.
      his colleagues have said he is a party guy, and he himself admitted as such.
      he has two sides to him, where he is a serious and top form athlete, but also a propensity towards partying and vices.
      i don't care to make a moral judgment, because no one is perfect.
      however, it is simply my personal opinion that van gelder made a serious mistake to drink and party (even if a little bit) before such an important moment of his career such as the olympics, especially when he was already on thin ice for being caught positive for cocaine before multiple times.
      he should definitely have given his performance, for which he was actually a very strong contender to get gold, and THEN partied and got drunk as much as he wanted.
      instead, he made a crucial mistake to drink before, and the olympic committee and coaches etc. simply could not allow that since he was already considered penalized before for cocaine use.
      but, alas, that is simply how addiction and short-term thinking works, and we simply have to accept that addiction comes in many forms and can affect anyone.
      this is what i take away from the life story of van gelder, hopefully even if his olympic career is gone forever, he can continue to bring up gymnasts, gymnastics, and especially speak to the glory of the rings for the rest of his life.
      after all, in the calisthenics and gymnastics community he is very well regarded as a talented gymnast.
      his story can be inspiring precisely due to his mistakes, and not inspite of it.

      Rings is the only real gymnastics discipline, the rest are easy in comparison. Van Gelder is probably the best there ever was on rings. A bureaucratic mess like the olympics cant affect that fact, much as they wish they could. He was not a drug addict, he was a sportman.

      Not true. He admitted that he took cocaine in 2009 and got a suspension back than. Please get your facts right, if you claim something like this!
