Since my lower back doesn’t backbend, quite crappy. Hell for the Torecic part, shoulders and wrist I can tell you.

Holy moly, this is The Most comprehensive progression between the Back-to-Wall Handstand to Backbridge. I love that box float drill, I’m definitely gonna steal that one !
@brucehelppie61195 ай бұрын
I make all the mistakes you’re showing, particularly from the floor. This gives me ideas on how to fix that. Thanks, Paul.

Back bridge is so hard, good progressions Paul ! Currently only do the normal (low bridge?) one where hands are directly under.

I'm 45, I've had disc surgery and I do 5 sets of 10 repetitions, but the most important thing is the “Superman” exercise to strengthen and warm up the lower back. My back is stronger than it was at 16, but it needs daily training.

wtf this handstand bridge is the perfect exercise for me at the moment as I'm very close to unlock my freestanding handstand and also want to learn the bridge! now I can work on both in just one exercise. Thanks a lot :)

Thanks for the video. Good to see we don't need a good back bridge for a straight line handstand :) I can do backbridge with straight arms but i have to be on teepee toes to avoid low back pain, and i can do front split too, next step middle split!
@PaulTwyman5 ай бұрын
Yes it definitely shows you get good and what you practice, hours of hours handstand training has allowed me to achieve a straight handstand despite the lack of bridge

Thank you Paul, I been having a struggle with backends. This helps a great deal!. Paul you think you can make a video to achieve jumps?
@heyitsaakash5 ай бұрын
If ur sufficiently warmed up its easier to get in to these positions with less effrts following rhythm of body and negating age effect to an extent, in yoga its called sukshma vyayam. Thx for share 😊

But he cant do the bridge pose. How can he teach other people a skill that he doesn't own?
@ik00R5 ай бұрын
@@gippo5971 maybe, maybe not. He’s got some solid exercises here that could form the base for a program though, and also there would be no need for me to find/pay for one more program/subscription if he did. 😅

I was focused alot on this thoracic flexitbility aspect. So would love to know your thoughts. Most people confuse their hip flexibility (flexors and anterior chain) with thoracic flexibility. I used to do these drills of walking my hands backwards on the wall, all the way down till a form a bridge, and walk my hands back up from that bridge (or walking feet down from handstand on wall). Although they looked great, I think it was mostly for hip flexibility. I think the throacic extension exercises you were demonstrating are now what i tried to focus on, with use of a dumbell, for Lat pull over, and accentuating the stretch at the bottom. Thanks again for this content :)
@MarincaGheorghe5 ай бұрын
That wall walk is definitely back - you need good back mobility to be able to go down the wall. I think Paul also demonstrated that in the past. There are always multiple ways to do the same movements.

So if I can do a bridge with straight arms, shoulders over wrists and feet on the floor, my handstand isn't straight because I'm not strong enough?
@PaulTwyman5 ай бұрын
No it means you have the potential to straighten the handstand, you first need to practice and strengthen the handstand balance window. Then overtime your handstand line will improve but first prioritise balance

@mitchelltj15 ай бұрын
Oh you will. I'm half joking and am in better shape than 99% of those in their early 40s, but I can tell my recovery has waned and I have lost a lot of flexibility. Trying to regain it now, my advise would be not to lose it to begin with.

I’m sure it’s individual but at 47 I need to visit positions and skills very regularly if not they drop off quickly. Training clients over 40 I find respond differently to younger clients working the same skills
