Here are some more stats about this session for those who are interested: The focus was to get as much L-sit to Hand Stand done as possible. I always rested as much as I wanted in between attempts, so that I'm as fresh as possible but not too cooled down already (somewhere in between 5 and 7 minutes). The total duration of the session was around 1 hour and 20 minutes. Not all attempts are shown, only those which I found interesting for some reason, I think it were around 3 normal Press to Hand Stands, around 7 L-Sit to Hand Stands including 2 unsuccessful ones, and 5 Planche attempts or so. As always thanks for watching, drop some likes and opinions if you've got something from this episode I'd appreciate it, and I'll see you soon in the next one!
Mani the Monkey you need to watch this guys tutorial for planche, there us better ways to train up to a planche th-cam.com/video/POq_-CTIX3o/w-d-xo.html
The key to open the shoulder angle in a handstand is building up tension in your abs (the feeling of pulling your navel against your spine). In this way the back gets straightened which slightly moves your center of gravity and allows you to open the shoulders. Word of advice from 13 years of gymnastics experience ;). Love the videos btw, keep up the good work!
Another excellent tutorial video Mani. I've enjoyed seeing this channel evolve over the past couple of years into what is, in my view, the best climbing-specific instructional channel on this whole website with none of the awful sophistry and pay to view bullshit you often find elsewhere. You have a genuine talent for communicating and production in all honesty. Have you considered creating your own website? It was a cool surprise to also bump into you on Varg's channel too haha.
Thanks for the nice words, I appreciate that. So far I'm not into that whole own website thing (and the subsequent selling of something which it so often entails), and I doubt it will ever be interesting for me, at least as long as youtube exists in the way it does now (it changes rapidly though). A truly reasonable man will stumble upon Vargs channel sooner or later :)
Hi Mani! Try doing this with your neck relaxed and the top of the head pointing at the floor, your back will benefit from that, and you'll also look more straight. Btw i love your videos, keep on the good work!
Props on progress, I am trying. One thing that was throwing me off you kept mentioning going into plank and it looks as though you are going into planche.
yo! solid work! The reason you cant do a straight handstand is a mobility issue. Im guessing you have really tight lats because you're a climber but it could also be your pecs. Stretch em out and it'll be perfect!
Maybe try to integrate bridge into your stretch routine for shoulder flexibility. If it's too hard, elevate the shoulders(or feet, I forget.) see which one is easier, and then work to bridge.
I personally think u don't need to learn that first bc i think it both feels very different. Look, when i could already do a normal handstand for 5 sec hold and I tried it on parallels i found it quite difficult. Just bc i wasn't used to train on paralletes (have to say: at that point I was not albe to throw my legs in the air slowly, only fast like gymnasts do). Just my experience, can feels different for everybody:) hope this helps u a little
In Gymnastics the Swiss Handstand is a straddle press to handstand. The video I saw showed the straddle leg posiion to start - not a straddle support like the L-sit support.
Say "butt" instead of "ass" XD I mean it's totally your choice but the rest of the video is so serene and peaceful and pure and clean it's kind of like a stain.
I have no idea how people get the straight back to arms shoulder 180 degree handstand I just don't have the flexibility, i have the strength but maybe it takes years for the flexibility to come
I tried the press to handstand without parallettes already, and I can say it's definitely harder for me. Not a lot, but a little. The reasons I think: You are starting even lower, and it's harder to hold balance whilst moving up.
Yes, for sure, i know as i have been trying handstand for a lot of time... But if i had to talk with someone who has never tried to handstand, probably i would suggest to start with easier exercises that do not include parallettes, because stability is much more if you can use all your hand!
I have some small dip stands, quite low about 6 inches height, similar to the parallettes but I wanted a little bit more height so I could do dips as well from a sitting position. and go from a dip position to a press up position. Any thoughts on the differences? Which is better ect. I think the parallettes are more stable.

Thanks for the input!
Finally had found you again
Thanks for including your mobilizing routine!
Really helpful video. Motivational too.
Amazing video
Hi. this video so useful for me. i can't do the handstand but your progression look easier to perform. Thanks
Well done mate , good tutorial.

Awesome video! Great work. Sidenote: Bro you look like a space telescope unfolding 7:33
Great, now I have to built myself some Parallettes...
wow great vid!
What a peaceful place to work out at. Birds chirping...
Beginner?
Outside tends to have that
flowers are blooming..
Outside is outsiding

Btw i love your videos, keep on the good work!
Love functional training like this, sweet stuff!

great video!
Awesome...

You would have to move your arms/shoulder right along the body line, not move the head 😊.
Awesome Mani! So you couldn't hold a handstand before this training? That's fast progress
Well I could hold a handstand on the ground when I would go up with momentum. Not very beautiful though :P

How about doing basic handstand widouth parallettes do you thing it has any pluses and are parallettes easyer or harder?
For first part, where you're learning forward, I just thought about something? Maybe practicing forg or crane stand on paralletes is comparable?
I have a question should i know how to handstand without the parallettes first?
I personally think u don't need to learn that first bc i think it both feels very different. Look, when i could already do a normal handstand for 5 sec hold and I tried it on parallels i found it quite difficult.

Just my experience, can feels different for everybody:) hope this helps u a little
@@circusbysilk thank u, I’ve been having a tough time trying to get the hang of it 👍
How many times per week you practice the handstand and planche ?
Cooles Video! Vor allem motivierend wenn man aufgrund einer Knieverletzung ned klettern kann! ;) Weiter so!
The "Schweizer Handstand" is called "Press to Handstand" in english I guess :)
Thanks!
In Gymnastics the Swiss Handstand is a straddle press to handstand. The video I saw showed the straddle leg posiion to start - not a straddle support like the L-sit support.
Is it harder to do on grass because you dont have a level platform.
Say "butt" instead of "ass" XD I mean it's totally your choice but the rest of the video is so serene and peaceful and pure and clean it's kind of like a stain.
Notice how no one agreed? Might wanna check on how soft you are
@@Rollsatroyal It's a light hearted comment from a year ago. I didn't really care then and I don't care even more now
I found this funny too
I have no idea how people get the straight back to arms shoulder 180 degree handstand I just don't have the flexibility, i have the strength but maybe it takes years for the flexibility to come
It would be easier to start without parallettes, wouldn't it?!
