I am so appreciative of the mobility info and specific drills for a wide range of abilities. When my gymnasts ask why, I have specific information to share. Thank you!
I love that Dave Durante has consistent teaching methods through all his videos. I watched his video with Katrin Davidsdotter. It helps to reinforce the methods!
Love the technicalities and the information. Will like A part of the video dedicated to kids that I will love for them to see and learn from. I have a 10 y/old gymnast and as a pediatrician making sure you prevent injuries is really important.
This is really one of the most complete tutorials I've seen the last couple of years! Really nice collection of progressions! I would also add the note to film yourself so you're able to check on correct form.
Loved this tutorial! It was very informative! I loved that you gave us specific mobility and strength exercises to reference to. Would you be able to do a tutorial on back step outs?? We are introducing this skill on the balance beam
Congratulations McKell, you are this weeks #SHIFT24Club winner! Please send Dave your question through direct message on Instagram @shift_movementscience and make sure you mention that you're this weeks #SHIFT24Club winner! :)
Very good information, very useful to understand the weak points and the mobility pattern of the skill. One question, what's the role the body proportions have in this skill? I have watched myself and when I'm in the starting position my torso is almost parallel to the ground, and from there seems impossible to raise the hips. I can easily do a full pancake I'm pretty flexible but either my legs are short or the torso is too large.
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you found it useful. There is definitely a component of body levers that influences the compression of the press. Shorted legs with a longer torso could make it more challenging. That said, I think with the proper program, progressions, and consistent work it can definitely happen. If you have mobility with the pancake position, it may be more about getting the thoracic/lumbar spine to have the compression mobility needed, combined with lots of core strength to maintain that compressed shape when trying to get the hips overhead. You will also need a lot more planche/shoulder strength to unweight the legs during the initial pressing. The press walks/drags might be great for you! Hope that helps.

Yes there is a portion for beginners all the way to advanced. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Great video - loved the mobility info as well as the strength and progressions aspect 👏👏👏
happy to hear it was useful!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We can definitely try and do that video in future. Thanks for the suggestion!
Amazing information! Excellent collaboration

My gymnast was so excited to watch this! Thanks for the great info! #SHIFT24club
Happy to help! Thanks so much!
doing wrist pushs everyday -> every training day or literaly everyday ? I feel like they could need some time to recover.
Very useful

@@shiftmovement Thanks for the response! I wish I had strong arms like Durante haha. Thanks for the tip, now I know what should I work on!
Talking too much 😮
