Handstand Push up Progressions

Handstand push ups are one of those movements. One that requires strength, position and proper progressions in order to advance. At CrossFit Federal Hill we have a few go to scaling options that have worked extremely well for our members. Coach Blair will take you from basic to advanced.

66 year old Male: 14 months post quad bypass- Learned to walk on hands at age 12 (rudimentarily), Wowed by Vertical pushups demonstrated my very husky squad leader to us during our nightly pushup session during swab summer as a Coast Guard Academy cadet. Going forward I would perform vertical pushups against the wall while when waiting for a pickup BB game at the gym. Pandemic ended 40 years of my regular 8-12 hours of full court basketball then came major cardio surgery late last year. Progressing from scratch on rebuilding a usable body. Some ATG has helped begin to increase poor mobility in ankle dorsiflexion and reaching the deep squat position which I was unable to get close to until recently. Foam rubber Padding behind knees during squat allowed me to suddenly break through with only mild discomfort - (miraculous breakthrough after maybe 15-20 years of being unable to squat. Today I jsut wanted to see what progression were recommended for handstand pushups- I always enjoyed them but never saw anyone else doing them (since 1976). Curious as to what I can train my body to do at age 66 after being nearly helpless a year ago. This was exactly what I was looking for - and in the first video I've watched on the topic. Very impressed with the form of the model athlete. I don't expect to duplicate that level of grace doing anything. Thanks for posting.

Good for you! I'm older and had some serious life-threatening issues. It's a matter of when! You have this! It's in your nature! I say if I die trying, well, how cool is that! Doubt, we'll die, lol.

Crazy thing is… I can still see their fit figures without them dressing like garden tools. 🤯

[@adenglen5104]

Is it just me or is she flaring her elbows quite badly when she's doing the pike from the box in your example of good form 😅 Other than that looks great
