Handstands
I'm kinda struggling with handstands. How do you get over the fear of being upside down? Also what are some good shoulder/arm exercises you guys would recommend?

I would simply recommend a doing handstand against a wall or simply having someone spot you as you kick up, till you reach the point you no longer need them to catch you if you overbalance. The fear is real, but at some point, you gain confidence. Training it consistently is the way. Keep ups updated
90° hspu
A month ago, I could do 90 degree HSPUs relatively well, but recently nothing clicks anymore. Why have I regressed? I thought I needed a deload week, so I took one, but nothing happened.

Yeah… muscle ups. I can only do them occasionally, and my form isn’t the best. I should probably focus on progressions though, I’m guessing this is the fault.

That’s a good idea. Thanks 🙏

When I go from L sit, to hand stand I can’t fully extend my arms, any tips on how to get full extension?

Paralletes make it harder in my opinion at the beginning, I think you should get used to doing them on the ground first, cause when your hands are on ground, you theoretically can’t get any lower. Also, try focusing on pressing before straightening your legs. Hope this helps
Hello
Hey thanks for having me. I would say I’m an beginner going into intermediate as I can do the elbow lever and the frog stand but I’m stuck on what to train,how to train and what to eat

Well first of all, you must have a goal in your mind, don’t you? Handstand, or maybe muscle up? My advice is to start working slowly toward whatever your goal is, by doing progressions. If you can give me some more information about what you wanna achieve, I can help you a little more. And about diet - I started skinny, but over time I ate more and more, including protein, carbs and fat in my meals. Eggs or oats are great for breakfast, and in the afternoon you can either go for steak, ground beef or chicken, combining them with carbohydrates for energy, and fat if you wanna bulk.

I mean it’s all about how often you workout if you wanna build muscle. 5-6 times a week is recommended from what I know, and personally it does do the trick. Motivation is indeed, an essential part of training. Almost every elite cali athlete including Hunter admit that having fun in your workouts is important for growth. So if you can, try to feel good when you get the opportunity. Also, if you’re struggling with diet, try to make a simple plan — even one day off junk food can be better than nothing. You got this brother.
Injury Comeback
I'm trying to get back as quickly but as safely as I can to get back my level and it's honestly been fun ngl... I'm still far from full planche but I'm one step closer than I was yesterday and the injuries are stepping down🙂I couldn't imagine this kind of relief starting this year🫡 but here we are

That’s a really good adv tuck planche. If I had to give some advice to you, I would say that after your injuries disappear completely, to wrap the hanging band around your waist; it makes the progression harder, and it’s going to get you one step closer to your goal. I’m also training for full planche, and I have to say that the straddle isn’t that hard: it’s only about training, resting when needed, and trusting the process. I believe in you bro. Keep it up 🙌🏻🫡
