Bro where are your shoulders? You have perfect looking health but it looks like Thanos snapped his fingers and only your shoulders are gone. Use a wall more often and increase your variety of handstand shoulder muscle excercise positions!
Hi, this might not be the best place to say it, but my wife and I really enjoyed being "introduced" to you by watching Magnus' climbing video. We appreciated your relaxed attitude and how much fun you guys had together just "trying stuff". I wish more people related to sports that way without all the "win/doom" attitude. Winning is definitely fun (and is important professionally), but I can see that both of you are challenging yourselves more than each other. I'm glad you made the time for that. Also: what you do is amazing. You know those "People are amazing videos"? Yeah, you are amazing. Peace!
@@jonathanwieringa8808 if youre looking for a climbing channel to binge, I found a super underrated dude named Jonathan Sin today. He’s only 700 subs but makes great climbing vids if u wanna check him out. I genuinely think that guy deserves way more attention
@@antigenius88 he is used to bodyweight training. Even in this 1 hour session you can see he improved alot. I said few months based on his background. Its mostly about technique. If Magnus can get 1-2 reps then its only a matter of weeks he can do 6-7 reps i think.
@@RamanSingh-zr7pk Yeah I think its even less. He might be able to do 5-6 reps in one or two days as he might have enough muscle already and only needs to train the nerves to contract them accordingly. If he also lacks muscle then maybe 1 to 2 weeks and he should be there..
@@RamanSingh-zr7pk wrong, it is all about traps, the pushing muscle which is not used much when pulling. He will need a year atleast to build his trap strength to be able to do this well
@@gehirnakrobat883 wrong again, it's not about the muscle he has its about the muscle strength he does not have which is traps which is not used when pulling only really in pushing
Damn, came from Magnus channel and I absolutely LOVE the modular approach! It's so much easier to work on goals that seem attainable! I've started and quit learning the handstand multiple times now because it has always seemed so far away, but finding my level and working my way up one at a time seems very doable! Thanks a lot for this man, you definitely earned this sub!
Right! I have a good grip strength and the wrist exercises killed me with my knees just 3 hand spans from my hands. I'm gonna work on these progressions. The way Sondre breaks and chunks it all into achievable, bite sized, noticeable strength goals is very masterful and motivating. Erry body do de wirst!
Seriously, incredibly impressive. I am going to incorporate these exercises into my end-of-climbing-session-workout, strengthening those wrists is not a bad idea at all.
@@Crazyoldman84 Whereas I agree on that, I still think its important to celebrate milestones in the context they are achieved. When I did my first indoor 7A+ I was equally as happy as when I did my first oudoor 7A+, although the latter was a "real one"
Not only have Sondre’s skills and ability to teach been excellent, his videos are so well put together. The diagrams and cutthroughs teach + inspire in a really effective and balanced way. Hope he gets all the visibility he deserves. PS its also such a treat to watch two guys dedicated to their craft and still stay curious. Thanks for this gem, guys. You inspire everyone to learn and love movement.
All the little intermediate versions are such a phenomenal resource, no one ever really covers how to bridge the big gaps between movements. Thank you!
Wow, Sondre, you are an excellent coach. I have never had the process for a handstand push-up explained so well and concisely as you did. I'm sure those exercises are going to help improve my climbing ability very quickly. I'm super excited about this.
The breakdown of the progression into these "roads" is super interesting. I am an IT student, so the concept of this clear progression and very organized approach really appeals to me :D Thats exactly how I think about my every day tasks. Pick a goal, subdivide and then go step by step through the sub goals. I will subscribe for sure and check out your channel for more of these awesome tutorials
I came from Magnus' channel. You got me hooked. Next time I'm in a gym, i need to find out at what level I am. Also I love the wrist exercises. I always had issues with cracking and pain in them and I hope this will help me overcome it. Looking forward to more videos like this. Love the format of levels even for beginners 💯
Man i can not tell you how amazing this video is for me personally, ive always been very skinny and weight lifting has always been a struggle so i went to calisthenics to try and change myself and i wish i had this video then!!! All of these progressions ive done myself but youve included so many intermediary steps that would help someone like me so much. Ie; pike push up progressions and crow sit progressions etc.. thank you for this and i hope someone finds this and makes use of this because this is such golden knowledge:)
Yo man the fact that you did it without the knowledge means you worked harder. That means you worked harder than everyone else, make sure to remember that good shit.
Awesome collaboration sondre! Its great to see you getting known here on TH-cam too! The video quality it’s getting great and the info amazing as always, we need more people like you in the calisthenics community 😄 keep it up 💪🏻
This is why collaborating is so essential for growth!! Sondres videos averaged 10-20k views the last 2 months. Now in 2 days it’s 10x at the high end!!! Well at least for vid one with magnus. Hope the success continues🍻🏆
The breakdown of this movement level by level is so good! I can go from sitting cross legged on the floor up to handstand, but can’t get the eccentric control to come back down and do reps. this should help a ton 😁
This is sick! I came here from Magnus' channel, and I'm so pleased I did! It's great that you had exercises for any strength level or technical level. Baby handstand push-ups are the intermediate step I never knew I needed!
I think something people neglect to a certain extent when working on handstands is lower back and core stability. I'm watching Magnus collapse through the lower back repeatedly, and I used to do the same thing until I worked more on my lower back and abdominals ;-) Great collab!
The reason for that is often shoulder mobility. Its a way to bring enougth mass forward in order to compensate for not being able to get a 180° angle between arms and torso
Without doubt the best video I’ve found on TH-cam for the HSPU. Many new progressions I’ve never seen and a well thought out structured step by step approach to gaining the skill. Really well done my friend. I’m pretty confident now I’ll be able to a much better job of regaining the skill even at the age of 60.
I never comment, but I have express my gratitude. I Stumbled upon your channel via magnus's channel and I'm so happy I did. You're a fantastic teacher, and this is the best breakdown I have ever seen. This goes behind just on how to do a hand stand Push-up but, also teaches you great fundamentals for improving all body weight exercises period. Thank you so much
I love that you include knee push-ups in your progression. As a yoga teacher, I would rather see students do knee chaturanga well than a not great plank position chaturanga and never improve. If y’all want to do yoga, I don’t know what the scene in Norway is, but Sweden has a big yoga community. I can recommend teachers to help open your hips (I came here from the other collab on Magnus’s channel) on a healthy manner. All that said, both of you are badasses and an inspiration for even basic handstand work!
Coming from magnus' channel - this is freakin' amazing, dude! Now I'm finally motivated to work on my push strenght toward this goal, thanks for your motivational modular programm. Keep up the good work!
Amazing video. As a yoga teacher at a climbing gym, this is incredibly inspiring for future classes with my climbers who want to work their handstands!
Wow nice! Never saw such a great video to learn how to handstand with all the different progressions for every aspect of the hanstand pushup! Thanks!!! Very generous of you 😊👍💪
You guys both are amazing! Sondre, this was really something worth to wait for, and it is so nice of you sharing so much accumulated physiological knowledge here, again.
If you ever see this comment, I just want to thank you greatly for this video! You showcased tips and tricks that i've never heard of. I grew up walking on my hands but i could never hold a handstand. Now because of you, i can easily hold a handstand, i can do 10+ freestanding handstand push-ups and next goal is the planche.
The wrist strengthening is extremely interesting to me as a climber, it's something I've struggled with since day one, I don't even have the finger mobility to do the first exercise shown!
Coming from Magnus channel... this is really well made video. From the editing, to the camera work, to all different exercises shown, to the explanation of everything, just awesome!
This is an absolutely awesome tutorial for beginners, thank you so much!! Magnus will be at a whole new level with continual training in this, what a trip. Keep going guys!
Absolutely wonderful to see the progressions, it makes a complicated and technial excercise seem approachable - challenging, but approachable. This is also the only handstand video I've watched that devotes time to show wrist strenghtening excercises! My wrists are pretty weak and they have always been the weak point when trying calisthenics. So thank you! It looks like a simple and good way to build the wrist strength up progressively.
Sondre, your breakdown is so amazing it even inspires your near opposite: I haven't done a push-up in 40ish years, but now it's a goal for this year. That's fine teaching!
I am very out of shape. 33yrs old 5’8 190-195lbs I felt the best when I was between 155-165lbs. This + climbing (I climb 3-5 days a week) + swimming should get me back to my goal of a healthy, strong 160lbs. 🤘 I’ll check back in 6 months from now with my progress! (April 20th 2023) Wish me luck! 🤙
Magnus fan here, but not a climber. You got me moving, and boy are my arms tired now! Knee pushups, wrist strengthening, stretching. No idea if i’ll ever get to the level of handstand pushup, but I aim to get at least to straight pushups and straight hand stand.
This was a great video! I’m pretty new to exercising (started climbing ~7 months ago and was lazy for 25 years until them) and this was exactly the type of progression video I needed!
I’ve been training to hold a handstand and eventually one handed, and your videos have helped tremendously. You’re a huge inspiration and your advice has taken myself and many others very far. You’re the man, Sondre 💪🏽🤙🏽
Great video guys! I try to get that bloody first HSPU, but after watching the video I see that I've been missing lots of possible progressions and could have been further in my HSPU journey by now if I knew them earlier! Good to see Sondre that tour channel grows day by day, you deserved it!
This is the collaboration I didn't know I wanted! It's cool to see Magnus' amazement with Sondre's strength. Very cool to see these elite athletes training together.
If it will take mangus about 2 months, I'm going to shoot for 4-6 months. I sincerely love how you've broken down the technical and strength aspects into separate processes, including wrist conditioning! You have a new subscriber and someone seriously looking into your program now. 🖤
Sondre is so clear and understandable with his instructions, have been wanting a handstand push up for ages, i was going too hard too fast, now I see the progression I can take… will report back later if I can do one (or two ) magnus will probably get it in 2 months. Great video!
Don't know if I'll ever really work towards a handstand pushup, but I will definitely be incorporating these wrist exercises into my after-climbing-workout!
It was fun watching both of your videos. One could see how you each have different strengths and less developed things based on your own training. I also enjoyed seeing you support and coach each other. By the way, I came from Magnus's channel. I'll definitely check out some more of your stuff :)
The wrist exercises are going to be invaluable. I have been diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome and have rejected surgery. My goal is to strengthen my muscles instead. I'm starting out close to zero, but like Sondre I like stepwise goals. I'll get there.
As someone who has always wanted to learn handstand push-ups and the ability to walk around on my hands, this video is super exciting lol. I'm starting with the wrist workouts.
Can do the handstand pushup 3/4 the way down and back up, with a wall to help with balance. Balance is trash, need to work on it still. Wrists were strong after a week then only slowly got stronger after that. Can do the tuck planche cheating a bit (knees on elbows), getting close to doing it without cheating. Working away on iron cross training too, getting much stronger on that finally after being stuck for awhile. I am 50 and weigh 320lbs. Its tough for me. I practice every day.
Got a set of wooden rings. Had a woman I know tell me I look buff. Biceps bigger than arnolds now. Still over 300lbs. 10lbs off my max (30 years ago) on triceps pullovers (150lbs, enough for dragon flags, almost enough for maltese). Doing dumbbell rows with 180lbs (no wraps for grip). Balance is still trash. Iron cross is forever away but progressing rapidly. Handstand pushup a month or 2 away, dont know how long until I can put it on rings though. False grip is natural now.
250lbs on dumbell rows now. Got the planche. Iron cross training gave me the strength. Iron cross might be possible but it is years away. Still slacking terribly on balance stuff and it shows. My balance is almost as bad as day 1. Grip strength is improving at a snails pace now, but I am still not planning on getting wrist wraps. Damn planche was brutal on lower back, wasnt expecting that. Not close to trying planche on rings, but may do some planche pushup training.
Big props for giving nice, gradual progressions! So many tutorials or programs just start their beginner levels with full push ups or maybe knee push ups when the reality is that many people can't do even one knee push up with proper form when they're just starting training, never mind training them for reps. I'll incorporate your technique drills for sure, been training wall handstands for a while now and my shoulders are getting more stable, I think it's a good time to bring in some more variety!
Wow i was watching Magnus' channel and ended up here. This is a very interesting channel and i think it has a lot of things to teach me as an athlete primarily as well as a climber. The way Sondre increases the difficulty of the excercises step by step is extreamely helpful.
Great hand stand techniques. Like how start working from small steps into deeper hand stands and push up. Having video on this or program can be helpful. Good work 🙏🏽📖😇.
Awesome to see that wrist workout, I'm definitely going to try that. I've got really loose joints, and working construction, I've accidentally dislocated my wrist with just a bad hammer swing, so definitely needs some more support. Thx!

6 mths! How’s it going?
Magnus fan here, but not a climber. You got me moving, and boy are my arms tired now! Knee pushups, wrist strengthening, stretching. No idea if i’ll ever get to the level of handstand pushup, but I aim to get at least to straight pushups and straight hand stand.
This was a great video! I’m pretty new to exercising (started climbing ~7 months ago and was lazy for 25 years until them) and this was exactly the type of progression video I needed!
Thanks Sondre! I came from Mugnuses channel, you are a beast!!! I will follow your homework from now on! thanks a lot!!!
Your content is amazingly good!! Keep up the good work, man! I came from the Magnus channel, btw.
I’ve been training to hold a handstand and eventually one handed, and your videos have helped tremendously. You’re a huge inspiration and your advice has taken myself and many others very far. You’re the man, Sondre 💪🏽🤙🏽
This is literally one of my life goals, thanks for setting a path out for me!
Coming from Magnuuuuuus. Love the filming and editing, keep up the great content.
You had Magnus do a warmup! You madman! :D :D
Your shoulder strength is fuggin ridiculous! Nice work mate!
Great video guys! I try to get that bloody first HSPU, but after watching the video I see that I've been missing lots of possible progressions and could have been further in my HSPU journey by now if I knew them earlier! Good to see Sondre that tour channel grows day by day, you deserved it!
This is the collaboration I didn't know I wanted! It's cool to see Magnus' amazement with Sondre's strength. Very cool to see these elite athletes training together.
I had a lot of fun, and the collaboration was very well done.
If it will take mangus about 2 months, I'm going to shoot for 4-6 months. I sincerely love how you've broken down the technical and strength aspects into separate processes, including wrist conditioning! You have a new subscriber and someone seriously looking into your program now. 🖤
I'll use this video to train the next weeks cause it looks like a fun progression. Thank you!
Sondre is so clear and understandable with his instructions, have been wanting a handstand push up for ages, i was going too hard too fast, now I see the progression I can take… will report back later if I can do one (or two ) magnus will probably get it in 2 months. Great video!
This video was sick. I'm stoked to see Magnus stick with it!
Such a great, approachable video with all the different levels. Thank you!!
I think this can be the start of a beautiful friendship❤️
Such great content, I love the energy and kindness of both of you! (It was also very entertaining and informative for a sedentary guy like me)
This is incredibly valuable.
All regressions plus insights…
Thank you 🙏
Don't know if I'll ever really work towards a handstand pushup, but I will definitely be incorporating these wrist exercises into my after-climbing-workout!
It was fun watching both of your videos. One could see how you each have different strengths and less developed things based on your own training. I also enjoyed seeing you support and coach each other.
By the way, I came from Magnus's channel. I'll definitely check out some more of your stuff :)
Never knew any of this. One I apparently do is pike down push-ups (a little more wall assisted).
And that was a sub! Great vid Sondre and happy to have found you!
The wrist exercises are going to be invaluable. I have been diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome and have rejected surgery. My goal is to strengthen my muscles instead. I'm starting out close to zero, but like Sondre I like stepwise goals. I'll get there.
Subbed! Awesome video, I'll definitely use the info to learn the handstand and handstand PU myself! It's a dream that CAN come true!
As someone who has always wanted to learn handstand push-ups and the ability to walk around on my hands, this video is super exciting lol. I'm starting with the wrist workouts.
Giving this a shot. Day 4 now, improving but hopeless. Hope sondre and magnus are happy, pressing like is a lot easier.
Can do the handstand pushup 3/4 the way down and back up, with a wall to help with balance. Balance is trash, need to work on it still. Wrists were strong after a week then only slowly got stronger after that. Can do the tuck planche cheating a bit (knees on elbows), getting close to doing it without cheating. Working away on iron cross training too, getting much stronger on that finally after being stuck for awhile.
I am 50 and weigh 320lbs. Its tough for me. I practice every day.
Got a set of wooden rings. Had a woman I know tell me I look buff. Biceps bigger than arnolds now. Still over 300lbs. 10lbs off my max (30 years ago) on triceps pullovers (150lbs, enough for dragon flags, almost enough for maltese). Doing dumbbell rows with 180lbs (no wraps for grip). Balance is still trash. Iron cross is forever away but progressing rapidly. Handstand pushup a month or 2 away, dont know how long until I can put it on rings though. False grip is natural now.
250lbs on dumbell rows now. Got the planche. Iron cross training gave me the strength. Iron cross might be possible but it is years away. Still slacking terribly on balance stuff and it shows. My balance is almost as bad as day 1. Grip strength is improving at a snails pace now, but I am still not planning on getting wrist wraps. Damn planche was brutal on lower back, wasnt expecting that. Not close to trying planche on rings, but may do some planche pushup training.
Wanting to learn this for a long time. Handstands have been getting alot better and this video is just what i needed to progress further! ;)
Cool, finally found a new training goal for myself aswell: 3 months to a controlled handstand push up without a wall:)
Dude I hope you have a good level of shoulder strength, otherwise you'll be disappointed 😅
This is a good video and I enjoyed that you showed the gradients from beginning on forward.
You two working together was great!
Big props for giving nice, gradual progressions! So many tutorials or programs just start their beginner levels with full push ups or maybe knee push ups when the reality is that many people can't do even one knee push up with proper form when they're just starting training, never mind training them for reps. I'll incorporate your technique drills for sure, been training wall handstands for a while now and my shoulders are getting more stable, I think it's a good time to bring in some more variety!
Big love to Magnus, now i have a fav calisthenics yt channel
Just came from Magnus video 🙏 can't wait to see more of your Collabs with him
Wow i was watching Magnus' channel and ended up here. This is a very interesting channel and i think it has a lot of things to teach me as an athlete primarily as well as a climber. The way Sondre increases the difficulty of the excercises step by step is extreamely helpful.
incredibly effective coaching.
Great hand stand techniques. Like how start working from small steps into deeper hand stands and push up. Having video on this or program can be helpful. Good work 🙏🏽📖😇.
Great video, idk if Ive seen anybody do a 90*handstand push up on rings before that was great!
So useful, practical and fun stuff! Thanks to both of you
Super video bro🔥🔥🔥
Incredible video! Thank you both so much value andinformation!! My prediction for myself is 3.5 to 4 months.
So likeable Sondre. Your programs are super effective and good to follow. Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭
Yoo, this is an awesome collaboration! I am already subscribed to the both of you.
Awesome to see that wrist workout, I'm definitely going to try that. I've got really loose joints, and working construction, I've accidentally dislocated my wrist with just a bad hammer swing, so definitely needs some more support. Thx!
