I actually really needed this video I have been starting handstand presses but had no real idea where to start thank you you guys are my favourite channel!
It took me half a year to be able to do reliable handstand press. (Funny side note: I’ve learned handstand press before handstand, so I was able to press myself into handstand but not to hold balance) I've started from yoga background so my progression was as follows: 1) First I’ve learned bent arms bakasana (crow pose), known as frog stand outside of yoga. 2) Second was straight arm bakasana, there is like million guides on youtube on bakasana progression on it's own. 3) Next big thing was tucked handstand press from bakasana... it's surprisingly easy because you are half way done with press movement. 4) After you are able to do tucked press from bakasana, before you do press movement you lower your feet almost touching the floor with your toes, unbending your knees. This is progression from tucked press to straight leg press. 5) As you straighten your legs during step 4 you start touching floor with your toes, offloading some weight to your legs. This is where real handstand press starts to take place. At this point it's SUPER IMPORTANT to keep leaning forward as you were leaning in bakasana otherwise you will be physically unable to lift your feet from the ground no matter how strong are you... physics, bitch. 6) At this point you should be able to do a handstand press without intermediate bakasana: at starting position for bakasana you don't just lean forward but you also lift you butt to make you spine almost vertical and than you lift your legs up with strength of your lower back. I know it looks super messy without visuals and ready to make clarification if anyone finds it useful.
Thank you excellent!! I am working on doing a straight handstand and the balance is sooooo difficult BUT I am going to make...Thank you and hall the success and happiness to you and yours:-)
Einfach nur danke ich mache jetzt ein Jahr calisthenics und habe mit meine Traumfigur Ich fühle mich endlich wohl und ihr seit ein Teil davon eure Videos haben mich sehr motiviert Dankeschön (scheiß YT Name ich weiß hab ich gemacht als ich noch jung war ;) )
Hi there! I really love this video. I can do press handstand but I want to do it from straddle. It’s really hard for me. We see a lot of videos showing drills to do press handstand but a few from straddle. Could you guys show us a video to start doing it? Thank you so much for sharing these amazing videos!
Summary of Exercises: 1. L Sit compression in pike 2. Pike Lean (lean forward and try to shift the weight on your arms and shoulders, at some point your feet will leave the ground) 3. Wall assisted handstand presses (you can walk down the wall with your knees bent, remember to lean shoulders over your wrists) 4. Positive presses (hands on a high box or kitchen bench, pressing legs up the bench or walking the legs up with the toes) Level 2 Exercises 5. Negative presses from handstand (can use the wall if can't hold handstand yet, remember not to go too close to the wall because you need to lean forward when you go downward, can go down in straddle/pike/tuck) 6. Tuck Planch Presses (press yourself up from the tuck hold to the support planch, this will build up the necessary strength, allowed to use momentum at the beginning, when mastered, do it with control) 7. Assisted Handstand Press (elevate feet on a small box and press up from that)
You guys are awesome. I'm a big unwieldy guy nearing 40 so I'm a way off this standard yet. I think I would always struggle with balance for some moves.... Do you have a gymnastic background El Eggs?
very good tutorial thanks! I'm able to perform straddle press to handstand on floor but i'm not ablte to perform press on handstand with parallette and tuck press handstand with straight arm! Can you tell me some tips to achive it, please?? Thanks!!
Sir unilateral whole body workout if we have one side weaker or heavily injured how to correct it make a detailed by bodweight exercise at home without equipment s plz sir support me
Hey Calisthenicmovement, I am having some problems with my press to handstand. When I press up, I fall forward at the point just before I have to extend my legs. Any tips on how to improve?
So I tried it today I managed to get my head down and my body up but the moment I stretched my legs slightly out I fell over and bear in mind I fell on my upper back on a TV and a air purifier causing my parents to panic and run into my room
hey man, awesome tutorial as well. I saw you put the channel from where you took the instrmental but could you detail the name of the track, cuz he has so much musics on it... Thanks!
I am nowhere close to being able to press all the way through from seated using parallettes, either straight or bent arm. Which exercises are best if I want to progress into these specifically? I am female and able to do straight arm handstand press from the ground using some shoulder/core and a lot of balance and flexibility. (straddle - very easy, tuck - fairly easy, pike - less easy, can't pull legs up past 'L' shape after doing several in a row)
Hello is there any way to increase teh strength of my wrists? They hurt terribly after performing a couple of handstand presses ... same with my planche training
I've been looking for this for a while! Thanks so much for making a tutorial on this! I really feel like you guys know exactly what you're doing. Could you tell me where you guys train or live specifically? I live in the Netherlands and I'd love to visit you guys sometime if you'd allow me :)
What exercise would you recommend so I can get the press ups down? Because I can do the negatives without any walls but I cannot lift up even with a block. :(( HELP ME PLEASE! Thank you
I'm doing the bent press but then I put down my legs slowly as a negative straddle press, so which sets and reps i can do it? 2 weeks ago i did a straddle press but now i can't do any press, why that is happen?
Excuse me ,i know it’s weird if i ask the question here but know i have some problem about my routine ,which is i train for strength monday,wed,friday and tues,thursday,sat fot stretching but my hamstring’s so hurt when i pike stretch can someone show me what’s wrong with my routine,thanks alot

Michał Baciński think of your hips like they are being pulled by someone upwards.Or think of getting your belly button as high as possible while leaning forward and youll notice your feet gonna lose contact automatically
It's a quite good tutorial, but to hard for some begginers, I mean, that excercies you've shown are too hard to do. Next time (f u are able to and have more excercises ), divide video into some parts like: Level 1,2,3 and goal, something like that. Thanks and take care! Stay Strong!
We LOVE your Tutorials! True quality content! Thank you!

Is there any trick to move legs from the ground??

Michał Baciński lean forwards further
Michał Baciński think of your hips like they are being pulled by someone upwards.Or think of getting your belly button as high as possible while leaning forward and youll notice your feet gonna lose contact automatically
Sir make it as soon as sir
If I follow these exercises than i can also do?
It's a quite good tutorial, but to hard for some begginers, I mean, that excercies you've shown are too hard to do. Next time (f u are able to and have more excercises ), divide video into some parts like: Level 1,2,3 and goal, something like that. Thanks and take care! Stay Strong!
