I'm still struggling to balance myself when handstanding, I got this one fear where I would fall overbalance or underbalance. I hold myself while handstand, it's just the balance and fear. Happens once where I fall, destroyed my hips

I never really practiced l-sit or elbow lever I just unlocked it after training bodyweight for a few months lol

[@bardiasoizi]

you should definitely do one about intermediate skills

[@waronamogobye436]

U should've started with pull exercise and then said "I don't want to leave u guys hanging, let's move on to push exercises". Would've been awesome

[@TheChillBison]

Great stuff that I want to start transitioning to in my journey. My problem right now is some wrist injuries from mountain biking over a year ago that make things like handstands very difficult/painful, although I'm back to being able to do pushups ok (still have to go to knuckles over 20 or so though). Any recommendations for wrist flexibility/strengthening?

Bruh I feel like my shoulders gone fall off if I try that skin the cat

[@perezp9149]

Bro this is so weird. I can almost hold a planche with perfect form but could barely hold a handstand for 5 seconds. That balance point is just too hard for me to find. Any tips?

[@perezp9149]

And I’ve been practicing the handstand at least 15 minutes basically everyday for about 4 months now. I feel like I should’ve had it down already

@@perezp9149 me too bro although I’m not that great at the Planche I can only hold for like 4 second, but I can’t get the handstand balance😂

[@GustavoTiavo]

Press into your fingers and spread them wide. Then just keep kicking up to find that balance zone. Don't be afraid to go to far, it's easy to catch yourself if you lose balance

[@Lucas_SM_Gymnasthenics]

Are you serious? I got a +10 sec handstand in 2-3 months but planche Is much much harder To do. Im sure you can even do press to handstand the balance is not that hard just press with your fingers and practice until you get the point where you exactly know what do you need to keep yourself up

[@OKOKOKOKOKOKOK-zn2fy]

To build grip strength for beginner calisthenics athletes, try swinging. The harder you swing, the more strength you build. ( Especially true for your grip. ) A swing hits the hands, arms, shoulders, and back with a massive pulse of mass X gravity. ( Up to 3X bodyweight ! ) Then, it backs off to bodyweight so you can "rest." It will be a challenge, but most people can hang on for a second. 🐒 Hang on tight. It does not look very masculine if you peel and land on your ass or your head. ( A calisthenics rite of passage. )

@Austin Dunham I'm starting to achieve straddle planche and I can't do a 3 second handstand XD. I've only been training planche for close to three months now with long breaks for like 4+days occasionally (when I loose focus). What does this mean for myself? I'm curious to know what you think of this.

[@marjangolubovic7311]

[@aay3755]

I am doing this body workout app but I will switch to a calistatics one

[@IOL-ox5tn]

Hey I have a question, Should I use push ups or close grip push ups in my workout (for mass and size gains) ? If I would choose push ups, I could do about 8 reps 3 sets, and if I choose close grip push ups, I can do about 5 reps of 3 sets. If it helps, other pushing exercises I have in my workout are pseudo lean push ups and pike push ups.

[@TheJap96]

Hey man I know its a long time since you asked but here you go. In terms of mass and strength both is good, they both give significant mechanical tension for your muscles to grow. If I were you, I would combine them, both exercises train your chest, triceps and anterior deltoids, so its nice to have some variations to challenge your body in a variety of ways, and also to keep the workout fun. If you only train calisthenics you can combine them in a push day, so you start with the hard variation for a few sets (3 or more), and then move on to the easier one. Also incorporate some dips, and pushing exercises specifically for your shoulder, like pike pushups or handstand pushups on a wall. I´m a personal trainer who train primarily with calisthenics so there is no bullshit. Keep on grinding!
