Great quality man. I'm following your handstand tutorial and its been going great so far. Thanks for the videos.

[@LanceGoyke]

That's great to hear, Steven! Keep it up, the handstand work takes so long. It's tough to be patient!

[@DelrealAirman]

@@LanceGoyke Actually I have a question. Not sure if you mentioned this in one of your handstand videos. But, I'm on the elevated pike hold phase and after I finished my training I felt sore the next day. I suppose over time I won't feel sore but is it recommended to just practice every other day until I can do it everyday. I'm trying to maximize my progress but I also don't want to risk injury. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

@@DelrealAirman Muscle soreness is not a huge deal unless it affects your technique. Wrist or other joint soreness takes longer to build resilience, so that's something you might want an extra day of recovery until you've built up a tolerance.

​@@LanceGoykeI have a question whats the better for increasing power squat or front squat

[@LanceGoyke]

@@whimsy353 I would say it depends on the movement which you want to be more powerful in. Back squat probably wins just because the bar is more supported. The key is, regardless of exercise, to lower the weight so that you can actually move super fast and even jump.

​@@LanceGoykeisn't it better to go heavy 1-5 reps for power and strength

[@LanceGoyke]

@@whimsy353 That is a good rep range, yes. If it's heavy, though, then you will be slow. Power has a speed component. Max power requires a moderate weight moved at the highest velocity. We measure strength simply by how much weight you can move. Good question!
