"...once you reach the chest-to-wall handstand push-up, you're never going to sleep again until you can do it freestanding!" Almost fell over laughing at this line - so true! I plead guilty. Since I only began calisthenics in old age, the long-term commitment required for training balance made freestanding HSPU seem like a totally unrealistic dream. Even chest-to-wall HSPU seemed possibly unrealistic, but partial success in strength training can feel more rewarding than in balance training - because visible muscles are built. But when today (nearly 4 years after my first pike push-up) I finally managed 3 reps of terribly ugly sagging partial-range chest-to-wall HSPU, that was enough to reignite the "unrealistic dream" - which led me to this extremely helpful video, that tells me precisely what I need to work on at this stage. I wish I had this when I started 4 years ago! I can't thank you enough!
Given that quality of information and presentation in Coach Bachmann's videos, I would very much like to see videos breaking down these movements on Olympic rings. Rings HSPU, meat hooks, reverse meat hooks, etc. Also, to explain the different muscles used balancing a handstand when your hands are on moveable unstable points such as poles or rings. It is rare that someone has both the ability to perform these movements and also ability to teach it to others well. 🙏
That is a good idea actually. Thank you for that! Ring handstands take commitment. I would recommend to get a box where you can elevate your feet and first practice L Handstands. Make sure you lock out your elbows and externally rotate the hands slightly. It will feel physically harder but will allow you to gain control over your handstand.
One of the best handstand push up tutorial thanks for your efforts man, Regarding the progressions I can do 4-5 max back to wall hspu recently I've tried deficit with the low parallettes I mangaged to do 1 rep for 3 sets with bad form I usually train Hspu twice a week in a heavy/light split. what do you recommend adding some weights like 3-5kg and do sets of singles + back off on the heavy day and what accessories to do in my case?! Thanks a lot for your help. 🙏
👉🏻 Can advanced athlete like you mimic incline bench press with slant handstand push up from top to bottom with 45 to 70 degree angle of body so it specifically targets your upper chest significantly??
Absolutely. When I don’t use weights this is exactly how I train chest. I used to do it on the wall. Whilst I can do it freestanding I prefer training these on a slippery wall with slippery socks as this will allow you to invest all your energy into challenging your chest and nothing gets lost on making sure you stay aligned. Using parallettes is also super helpful here
Really solid advice my man, thank you. Question: I can do the HSPU freestanding, but after one rep my balance always breaks. I've been stuck at this point for 4 months now, progress has just been very inconsistent and stagnant. Would you recommend more work on overhead shoulder mobility, balance, both?
If your balance breaks after 1 rep you need to either get stronger in order to be less fatigued after the rep or you have to train your handstands more. Working on both at the same time might help the most. What probably will not help is just doing more attempts over and over again! Break it down and work on everything separately.
Really good advice. I reach 4 mini hand stand push up (with /2 amplitude) today. My problems is that I loose balance at the bottom if I do in full amplitude so in need to bend my back to retake this balance, and with a bend back I feel less strength :( really hard movement
You are lacking a bit of protraction strength and commitment to the lean. In your body position your back has to arch to bring the feet over the back of your head to stay in control. This means you do not have enough weight in the front of your fingers or in other words your head and shoulders are not far enough in front. You have to try and reach more with your upper body. Only like this your back will not have to arch quite as. Practice L HSPU with a headstand in between each rep and chest to wall HSPU!

You work extremely hard on your videos. This was full of valuable information.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!

This is the reason I started training calisthenics. Can't wait to perfect this skill
Keep us posted about your progress my friend! This is exciting stuff!!
Thanks!
