Haha! Cheers James!

[@samjakana6883]

your pike push up videos prepared me so well for wall handstand push ups

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

Go get them shoulder gains!

[@brucehelppie6119]

Good tutorial, Andrew. I’ll try to keep those key points in mind next time I do them.

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

how did it go, Bruce?

[@brucehelppie6119]

@@CaliToTheCrowd I think I did pretty well avoiding the back arch. I think I forgot to planche lean first, but I got 4 reasonably decent reps.

[@jaxonlee4587]

You stroking the wall killed me 🤣

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

It was a nice wall 😅

[@TimBelchamber]

You don't truly appreciate a good wall & floor combo until you practice handstands 🤣 love the vid

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

A good wall is all we hand balancers all need in life! 😅

[@marcchrys]

Good video. My only issue is finding a clear wall space at home ..I usually end up using the back of a Z-frame door and my feet get snagged on the bracing ;-)

[@martin_bolha]

Maybe do it againts a closed door? If it doesn't have any glass part that is

[@sabotagedgamerz]

Love this exercise. Still can't do a freestanding handstand but I'll make sure to keep working on my overhead pressing strength, eventually working up to the Deep Wall HSPU, so that when I can handstand, strength will not limit me from the Freestanding HSPU.

[@MarincaGheorghe]

Keeping the balance while coming back to top seems to be hardest. The clues one uses to bskance back would be snth, but I guess its something one needs to discover on his own.

[@neals2955]

Hi Andrew, aweome stuff mate keep up the amazing work :)) I think I commented a while ago stating I was trying Frogstand To Hanstand. Since then, I have learn't to do it :)) Balance is still something I'm working on though and a target of mine is t be doing the handstand shapes you do in your vids xD Yesterday, I even did a freestanding handstand push up however, I did lose my balance as soon as I got back to the top motion. Furthermore, 10 mins later I managed to 2 do in a row xD I was super happy as, I thought it would take me months to a partial one. Benefits of learing frogstand to handstand first xD I did have one question and it's about wrists. Do your click a lot, I find espeically when warming up my wrists, they tend to click a lot when doing wrist rotations, etc? if so, how did they recifty this xD thanks again keep up the amazing work - Neal.

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

Neal this is awesome progress and similar to my journey! And you're right, the ability to stack skills is such a huge win especially when it comes to hand balancing! Mate I am genuinely so happy for you. In terms of the wrists though, try using wrist wraps, and continue if it isn't paining you (may just be air). I also have this warm up that you can try out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpyQdWeXeLB_npY but if it continues and causes you pain, please please please see a physio. No need risking all your gains. Again, mad happy for you bro! 💪🏿

[@neals2955]

@@CaliToTheCrowd Thanks so much mate :)) Will invest in some wrist wraps and check out your wrist warm up! Thanks for your handstand vids, they laid the foundation for allowing me to do handstands :))

[@Jim-rs1hn]

chest to wall handstand pushup is something really wanna work for however, the gap between feet elevated pike pushup to chest to wall handstand pushup was too massive. Generally I had to use weighted pike pushups to bridge the gap between them. However sadly I do not do it anymore, and just went to overhead press( however i do want to get back to ctw hspu again however my neck strain needs to heal).

[@maxharris6690]

Cracker tutorial man!! Was doing these today and wanted to polish up my form.

[@Qwerty.240]

For some reason, i could do wall handstand pushups without even progressing from pike pushups. From this video, i realized i may be arching my back a bit. Thanks

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

No worries! Good hustle 💪🏿

[@MalcolmTrez]

What are your thoughts on this Vs the back to wall HSPU??

[@perotal]

Both have their place. Most people unlock the back to wall first

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

^Agree with @Perotal! I like the back to wall variation especially as a mass builder for the shoulders, though I will say that it is trickier than many think, so will be dropping a tutorial on it soon Hope this helps Malcolm 💪🏿

[@MoeunShow-24H]

thank you❤❤🎉🎉

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

No worries!

[@tusharmahespalsingh791]

Do you find a psuedo planche push up with almost maximum lean more difficult than a ctw hspu in terms of strength? Also where does my bent arm strength need to be at in terms of reps with ctw hspu in order to straddle planche?

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

Faaaaaaaar more difficult. if you are doing Psuedo planche push ups properly, they will always be harder than any form of HSPUs. And I am not sure about the number of CTW HSPUs to unlock straddle planche, but based on the athletes I have had the luxury of training with, I would aim to get 10-12 clean CTW HSPUs, if any form of the planche is a goal for you these are the sort of numbers that planchers I know are working with 💪🏿

[@TamaraLindsay]

Is it okay to do inverted rows everyday? Or should I take rest days in between?

[@CaliToTheCrowd]

Depends on intensity, but I would advise every other day at most
