Damn, dude. I’ve been getting stuck on the concentric portion and either over or under balancing. This is just what I needed. 🙏🏼

[@ghadhight100]

Add some weight training with a similar lift to your program and gradually prgress overloading with it. i think a 5 sets of 6 reps with a maximum load of 80% of your one rep max on a standing military press exercise once every three training sessions sould be enough in order to maximize your strength level to meet the hand stand push up strength demands.

[@lucamackenzie516]

Great vid, thank you. I’m getting stuck at the bottom section of the HSPU at 1:28, and I think I’m missing strength exercises for my trapezius, serratus anterior, latissimus dorsi, and core muscles. Do these sound like the muscles I should be focusing on next?

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes but I wouldn’t focus on the muscles I’d focus on the drills to fill the gaps, eccentrics, pike variations etc. This video should help th-cam.com/video/0u37t8TIhak/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U9RYmeanb5KPwM11

[@JohnYuFitness]

There's a lot of videos on HSPU, but this video is by far the one that explains it the best to me. Pillow is also recommended for practicing negatives. XD

[@PaulTwyman]

Great to hear! Thank you

[@Asadc1995]

For everyone the cue is for stable both descent eccentric phase and concentric phase. Is the cue is. Keep elevation protraction at all times at the shoulder positioning = Upper back rounding. I know many people see the elbow forwards inwards towards the body. But the actual technical cue is. To turn the elbow pits facing towards each other making initiating the forward lean. With the upper back rounding = protraction. Also at all times keep the weight onto the finger tips knuckle backside area of the hands. Took me a long while to learn understand the technique. But thats how i do it in my case. With freestanding hspu. If at any point during the freestanding hspu loose the upper back rounding = elevation protraction it is the thing that throws one off balance. Atleast from my own experience = sinking into the shoulders losing the upper back rounding

[@rawalrohit7929]

paul great breakdown of this move. The stability at the tilt position was the root hurdle in my case. Thankyou once again🙌🙌

[@PaulTwyman]

Great to hear! Thank you

[@LucasPH23]

Seems that whenever I’m looking for help or advice with handstand stuff Paul just so happens to have posted a video about exactly that lol

[@PaulTwyman]

That’s my goal 🙃🙃

[@Uday-jd4hp]

3:42 sir this is my hspu level

[@A-l-b-e-r-t]

got average 10 second holds on my handstands so im thinking of trying to hspu for more knowledge on balance, and also strength.
thanks for these amazing videos👍👍

[@kaifullhd4361]

Try to reach 30 secs of clean handstand to have the perfect initial situation for hspu

[@A-l-b-e-r-t]

I got to 20+ seconds and i can do around 3 hspu but thanks for advice 😊​@kaifullhd4361

[@GaryGozo]

Excellent video....thanks Paul....helping me learn....

[@BanZooKie]

Great video thanks mate!

[@PaulTwyman]

Thank you !

[@raphelT-ii4ej]

In my experience during concentric phase keeping your weight on the knuckles or fingers is easier to balance. 🎉

[@4thlawofgravity]

Thanks

[@PaulTwyman]

Thank you

[@ChiefMakes]

My balance window increased by about an inch I think… my reaction window (which is what I’m calling how far I can fall forward or back before I realize) is the same though

[@MarincaGheorghe]

HSPU coming for you.

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes 💪💪

[@supriabudiman2425]

do you put tension on your legs to lock/ make it straight
or just loose it and the legs will straight naturally without any tension

[@PaulTwyman]

Just enough tension to keep the body as one segment. Not to much so you get tired holding the position

[@Memesworld425]

Why you wear cap in every video

[@oaianeagraa]

To hold his microphone

[@adrianhochmann3091]
