Handstand Push Up BASICS for ALL Levels

Pike, Wall and Freestanding HSPU's all have the same movement, pathway and sequencing of the shoulder. Learning this will help to unlock and master the Handstand Push Up. In this video I take you through the progressions in pike, wall assist and freestanding.

Great video thanks for the tips

[@PaulTwyman]

Great to hear you enjoyed it

[@amirkhorsand5920]

Amazing video here paul. Could you make on showing us how to do a one arm handstand on Pbars? It has always perplexed me.

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes I’ve only played with it a couple of times and can balance for around 10sec on my good side. Will be interesting to make a video on it

[@amirkhorsand5920]

@@PaulTwyman awesome!!!

[@leehurst70]

Easy! ;)

[@PaulTwyman]

With some practice 💪

[@victormanuelpolanco922]

When I practice negative HSPU on the wall, chest to wall, I lack all control over my forearms staying perpendicular to the ground. I walk my feet slowly down the wall as I'm leaning forward but at some point it feels like I've transferred too much bodyweight on the tripod, my back starts sagging and I'm feeling like my forearms going backwards which I want to avoid. I'm already able to free handstand and I'm feeling comfortable upside down so I'm now after freestanding HSPU I'll start implementing in my practice partial negatives but any other help and cue suggestions pretty much welcome too.

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes this is common. I would try to exaggerate the hollow body position just before and during the eccentric. It sounds like you are starting to sag, as soon as this happens everything gets harder and the body collapses more. It’s very subtle but makes a big difference. Adding some strength to the body line position and overall pushing strength should help

[@RJ100]

ive noticed a lot of people do it with wider hand placement, which is less leaning, and less tucking elbows. It feels easier. thoughts on that?

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes I’m definitely wider than my hand balancing position. I have short arms 😂 so don’t go to wide but someone taller definitely would

[@gantz0949]

so I do these at the end of a session under strength category. is this correct?

[@PaulTwyman]

Yes 💪

[@sunilsharma-sr7xt]

When I come back from down I fell down how to balance it

[@PaulTwyman]

Most people will fall back towards their feet (under balance) so you then need to purposely over balance by arching slightly or bending the knees. Super slow eccentrics can help
