My son is 8 and taught himself how to do vertical pushups against the wall. he wanted to teach me, so we looked up progression. Now he's trying to learn proper technique. Thanks!
Coach Carl I was so lost on how head stands could ever relate and then at 2:10 I was like oh! oh! oh! and then BAM! 2:21 I was sold....AGAIN! You just rock, thank you so much for your help!
wow this is a very good tutorial. excellent advice and small steps, i hope to achieve the full handstand pushup and other exercises because of your tutorials. excellent!
Hands where you can see them would give you a stronger set up at the bottom because of the wider base of support (like a tripod). This will enable you to find more stability & tension at the bottom for a stronger push up. Keeping the hands (and elbows) in front also allows for full shoulder range with flexion/extension compared to abduction/adduction at the side; test & compare a barbell press from the front rack with elbows in front to a behind-the-neck press with the elbows out to the side.
Try to bring it back down to a basic plank (horizontal) push up, and make sure your forearms are vertical with that movement. The movements are the same, where the plank push up is a smaller shoulder range of motion than the handstand push up.
couse it would be imposible to do a pushup in that position, the wider the harder, if you cant see your hands you cant balance your body :) (sorry for bad english hope you can understand)

Knees go directly on top of the elbow, forearm is vertical so wrist->elbow->knee is stacked and supported. Thanks!

Wow. Thanks for your thoughtful insight, suuuper helpful. For those of us with prior issues, it's a valid concern.

At 1:20 do you put your knees directly on top of the elbows or slightly to the side in the headstand?
Why do you need to have your hands where you see them? What's wrong with hands next to your head?
trying... nice tut
Is headstand work OK for the neck?
I can hear the Spanish in your voice sometimes! You lived in Spain a while, right?
Hard to see the body alignment through the jumper.
