A Realistic One Year Planche Transformation

[@arnaudjouanin7561]

Oh man thank you, I'm 1.86m, 81kg right now, been working towards straddle planche for 4 years, and we need more people like you giving realistic expectations.. there's too many KZbinrs out there saying it's a normal progress pace to get from 0 to full in a year.. genetics plays a bigger role than anything else no matter what people like to think. Feels refreshing, good luck with your future planche endeavors

Im 85cm 90kg working towards the straddle with 15kg bands for 5 sets of 5 seconds, love seeing you progress fellow struggler

You must be jacked at that weight with just 85cm 😝

A true chode if there ever was one 😂 nah fr man, keep going, stay the course!

[@uncxpsyborg8797]

You mean 185cm rt?

hi tyson, I think you need more raw anterior deltoid strength, your technique is almost perfect and since you trained planche all this time If you had enough raw strength you should have been able to convert that brute strength to angle-specific planche strength. Look at the best planchers in the world (Valentin, Andry strong...), they have huge deltoids, I'm sure that having bigger shoulders would help you more than training planche specifically

[@TysonE]

Hmm, I'm inclined to agree. I think there's two paths; stronger shoulders or lower bodyweight (or both).

So interesting to follow your full planche journey! I'm on my Straddle Planche journey and I can do 8 seconds of the yellow band for 3/4 sets but I'm still scared to try body weight until I can reach 12-15 seconds consistently or perhaps moving to a consistent 8 seconds with the mint band? Not sure 🤷🏾‍♂

[@TysonE]

Both, haha.

[@W-HealthPianoExercises]

Yep, I am also 85Kg (1.80m) and for me too it feels like something completely out of reach. Also, probably because frankly the effort and time it would require could be used for more interesting and healthy exercises 🙂 Anyway, the only chance is to lean as forward as possible bring forward a lot the center of gravity and, then, it mostly should become core strength (and balance) and deltoid, I believe ... keep it up! 🥰

[@TysonE]

Push down on the pbars, don’t just lean 💯

Great journey. It looks like you're at the final hill to climb. You probably could hit a great planche, especially through a handstand negative. Do you still think the dips have merit for training planche? It's been a while since your last dip video. Curious if you had any reflections on that. I've seen pretty conflicting views on the whole dip carryover thing. I don't think it helped me at all. I tried using a supine planche bench press sorta thing for a few weeks to get me through my planche push up plateau and made literally zero progress with it. Maybe it would have been better with a smith machine to keep the bar path perfectly consistent, but I doubt it. PPPU on rings with the rings turned out the entire ROM really changed my planche. I went from alright planche on floor and parallettes to planche on rings. I think there's really something to be said about the supinated pressing and upper chest involvement. I've done a shit load of military pressing (~1.25xBW) so I assumed my upper chest was fine. But my upper chest exploded when I started doing reverse grip stuff.

I think dips and hspu both have merit (i think any bent arm exercise for strength has merit towards planche). How much merit tho, not sure it’s as simple as that, too many variables person to person. I personally think hspu has been best suited for me but i enjoy dips more, haha. I actually did an update on dips but didn’t include it. I got a little bit of tendonitis again, and then an unrelated tightness in the chest (muscle/tendon and not from dips but dips affects it) so I’ve stopped again. I am slowly bringing them back with pause dips to focus on technique. Thanks for following the journey 🙏

[@jordanwolfe2403]

Would you say planche is more difficult than iron cross ?

[@TysonE]

From my personal experience, yes.

[@thepizzaworkoutplan]

I growl too for top sets. Def makes a difference getting the intensity where it needs to be.

[@bubiorbi9818]

Haha im far too exited to see another person getting close to full planche
