🤸🏾how to handstand press
Hi warriors,
4 steps to unlock your Handstand Press 🤸🏾
Before you start, make sure you have these foundations locked in:
✅ Solid handstand hold (30 to 60 sec)
✅ Good upper and lower body flexibility
✅ L-Sit for 10 to 15 sec
Step 1: Partial Press Level 1
3 x 8 to 10 reps. Focus on compression and shoulder elevation. Keep the lean minimal, this is not a planche.
Step 2: Partial Press Level 2
Move here once Level 1 feels easy. Can’t reach the parallettes yet? Use a stepper or yoga block and add height gradually every session.
Step 3: Partial Negatives
Stuck at the lift off? This is your fix. Great for breaking through that sticky point when pressing up feels impossible but negatives feel solid.
Step 4: Full Negatives
Start low volume: 5 x 1 rep with a slow 3 to 5 sec descent. Rest 2 to 3 minutes between sets. Quality over quantity here, fatigue kills focus.
Personal note: I’m decent with flexibility but compensate with shoulder strength. The more mobile you are, the easier this gets. Grip strength matters too.
Take your time with each step and don’t rush the progressions. 💪🏽 #handstandtraining #handstandpress
