How I Learned The Tucked Planche

In this video I discuss the tucked planche and the exact exercises I did to master the tuck. I also give advice I wish I had when starting out and give the secret to moving to harder progressions.

The 2 straddle Planche Push-Ups had me dying 😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣

[@RegReg02]

😭😭😭😭😭

Bro did the chris heria intro😭🤣

[@IrishYamphu-vw9sl]

Fr bro

[@callhard]

lmfaooo that was funny fr

[@emil-ig3pe]

I hope you keep making videos man they're really fun to watch and good job for sticking with training tuck planche even when it felt like u weren't making progress, thats the difference between those who achieve the impossible and those who don't

[@LiamMoore72]

YES BRO THIS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT THANK YOU

[@gorydays28]

nice message there at the end about it eventually coming together and progress happening after a consistent struggle

[@TheBaigan]

Good luck on ur new job bro been stuck on tuck planche for a while been focusing on hip mobility and I decided I needed to learn the splits to pass the barrier

[@anomaly3215]

pretty sure learning the pancake will be 20x more beneficial than the splits, you get exactly what the splits give you and more, not sure how it's not objectively better

[@syncig]

The Chris Heria Intro 😂

[@MissionMuscleUp]

Colin, your videos rock bro. Always appreciate your content. You provide real value.

[@CrispyChips007]

Dont worry man respect given 💪 I just started follow your beginner workouts this year, and im starting to see muscle form, dont think I would have been motivated as much iv I didn't see your vids, ill now be using this as a long term goal, im also 6'3 and just turned 30 but im feeling the best iv felt in about 4 years. So cheers mate keep this up.

[@seanbiggins2862]

Excellent video- clear and succinct explanation- obviously very knowledgable. Subscribed 👍

[@dogestep64]

Made me realize how difficult the planche really is

[@anomaly3215]

don't take this as the basis tho, the vast majority of people have the strength for the tuck planche already, it's mind boggling to me that someone could take 3 years to achieve what most people can already do in less than 3 months

[@Robdutton91]

@@anomaly3215he doesn’t mean he spent years to achieve the tucked planche, he means he spent years to truly master it and get beyond it

[@phillipbirt]

A big thing to realize when learning these skills, is progress doesnt always look like progress. If your stuck on a certain progression for weeks/months/years, as long as youre training hard and recovering well, you can be confident your muscles/tendons/bones are adapting and strengthening. Plateus are often overcome very suddenly. Ive been stuck on tuck planche for a number of months (well, years really, because I stopped training for a while), but now im getting more comfortable with the advanced tuck. But i'll tell ya, it took an UNGODLY amount of repetition and time to get there.

[@Robdutton91]

I’ve found this too, lots of progress at first then suddenly everything seems to hit a wall. It’s nice to hear that’s normal

[@DArK-xj8lr]

Going from tucked to straddle is the barrier most people find it difficult to cross. But once you make it, further progression is much more smoother and faster

[@Dragonmoon1598]

Great breakdown and congrats on the new job.😁

[@colinmurrayYT]

Thank you!!

[@My_Honest_Reaction_1]

6:38 look at that arm like the muscle beside your main bicep

[@seanmackey6355]

Bro that's actually sick progress

[@alenas6140]

Do you condition your wrists as well? I have wrist issues so I'm unable to weight bear on them, but I really want to get into body weight training as soon as I heal! Love the sprinkles of humour in your vids!

[@scopie49]

He does. I've found the more you try to do with calisthenics the more you realize how weak the entire chain is. My goal is to do a flag. To do that you need handstands. To do that you need push and pull strength. To do heavy push exercises you need wrist strength. Trying to do these exercises without a very good base will lead to injury. I haven't done a handstand in almost a month now while focusing on wrist strength and my wrists are STILL feeling an injury when they're bent for pushups. The planche 100% needs wrist strength because even with parallettes you're using your wrist's forward/backward strength to keep your balance.

[@danielk5755]

Hi Colin, try to bridge the gap by using a light band support for the straddle.

[@colinmurrayYT]

Thank you bro! I'm adding it to the arsenal immediately 🙏

[@CalisthenicsGuy27]

Chris Heria type intro 😭

[@xiaojiang2610]

This tall dude is really a legend. Just think of the extra lever he needs to balance for the extra leg weight....I'm 5'11 and I just felt tuck pl -> adv tuck pl is near impossible.

[@Robdutton91]

Try being 5’6 with a 230kg squat trust me it doesn’t matter how tall or short you are, we’re all built different and leverages might favour one movmenet but hamper you somewhere else

[@MathiasBanas]

Respect 😊

[@MathiasBanas]

Tried tucked planche, held for 1 sec max 😂 it is really hard and I do not have still foundations like hspu etc

[@arpitaryan4826]

Brother any height maxxing tip?

[@sweilavie]

be yourself

[@thequestionable2303]

I got full planche recently, planche leans are awesome, skipped straddle and just trained attempts and leans, psuedo pushups and psuedo presses which Is very good for anterior delts

[@colinmurrayYT]

Good stuff! That's actually so sick I'm going to experiment with those presses too

[@melodyflute2999]

Didn't know he was 6'3"

[@LookOut3D]

Lol I remember the tuck planche was easy AF when i was skinny but now that im heavier and have more muscle I cant do it anymore 💀I can OHP abt 80% bw and cant hold it for even a milisecond

[@Robdutton91]

I’m not knocking you but I don’t think there’s much if any carryover between an overhead press and a tucked planche

[@LookOut3D]

yea specificity is king, but anterior delt development has some carry over no?

[@fell4milkman]

what type of pull up bar do you have on your door 👀

[@mastermindelectronicsecuri3135]

I did this in 6 months but still trying to do muscle up from past 1 year

[@TotallyNotRobbery194]

just understand that he took so long since he is tall, the shorter you are, the easier it is.

[@nazirabdu-m5v]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@syrus3657]

damn you got a cool physique, as a tall guy its pretty cool.

[@VeconAlanB]

👍

[@jamesvm33]

You look like a Roman Emperor King 🔥 they need to make a statue of you out of pure marble

[@maniacablator]

It is a reality that shorter & lighter people tend to have a less difficult time trying to learn static skills (front lever, straddle or full planche) but its not impossible, I´m glad that you are progressing (although I insist you should try dynamics haha) Great channel bro!

[@TracMcNguyen]

No exercises using doggos...le sadness...😔

[@PlantBuildThrift]

Watching makes my wrist hurts

[@bartosz0.]

tucked planche is that sleeper move - looks super easy but in reality ...

[@emberchord]

Yes, I will stay because of that shirtless video in the beginning. Yes I am that weak.

[@shaneoshea8635]

I can't even do the first step oops! :P

[@merequetengue7066]

patatiña golosa

[@AEON_NiNjazZ_HD]

Has anyone told you you look like Layne Staley?

[@colinmurrayYT]

yeah I get that a lot lol I'll take it as a compliment ig

[@Goatedmemes1]

Bro is nonchalant

[@brawales]

What's your OF?

[@lock2821]

3 years for a tuck planche is crazy🤔 not saying this in a mean way but you have no clue what you are doing don't you?

[@ewbruddauh21]

Or maybe he's 6'3

[@lock2821]

@ewbruddauh21 How does it matter for tuck planche? The lever and lean is almost inexistent. We have guys the same height doing full. He just doesn't know how to train

[@ewbruddauh21]

@lock2821 just because it's a easier progression doesn't mean height won't matter, it's still a leverage based move, and having longer limbs will definitely affect it, otherwise add ankle weights to you and do a tuck planche, it's for the same reason that for some ( shorter guys) a straddle planche it's almost as a easy as holding a tuck , due to their lower center of gravity, just because u have seen taller people doing more advanced, doesn't mean it's easier, it's just common sense

[@ewbruddauh21]

@lock2821 it's for a reason the average gymnast ring especialisy it's no taller than 165 cm , don't be silly please,

[@raccoon2276]
