    Pole dancer here. Starting my Calisthenics journey to supplement those skills. Really appreciate your progression video. One of the best I have seen. My only issue with it was that I didn’t have a lot of strength built up when trying the chest to wall walk and hold. I underestimated my own strength. After I managed the hold, my arms gave out. I was able to walk forward a little bit before needing to fall so for anybody new to this you should check out the video on how to fall out of a handstand. Don’t do a me on it everybody 😂

    @Wischmopp95 2 роки тому +2

    Damn, I remember my sports teacher trying to teach us handstands. He just demonstrated a (perfect) handstand a few times and asked us to mimic him. If somebody (aka me) had a hard time grasping the sequence and asked for advice, he only said "just put your hands onto the floor and kick up" and demonstrated it again, way too quickly for my stupid proprioception-impaired brain to follow. We didn't even learn about the "head aligned with shoulder blades" bit.
    I have a really, really hard time learning (or even recognising) movements just from visual input, I see somebody do something and I just can't "translate" it to my own body. In addition, I don't have a great intuitive understanding of where my bodyparts are (like, if I do push-ups, I can't tell whether my back is straight or my ass is sticking up just by "gut feel", I always need a mirror). And I was still able to follow the instructions in this video! It's so helpful how you break down every big movement to its individual components!

    • @movementforclimbers
      @movementforclimbers  4 роки тому +1

      Crow to handstand is deceivingly advanced. It's a bit of an unnatural position since your head is so in front of your shoulders and your hips are so far behind. I would hold off on that transition for now unless you want to work it dynamically. For a static transition, a straddle press handstand is easier and more natural to do.

Without it, its impossible to hold handstand despite applying all the drills. This concept of posterier pelvic tilt control is missing in this video. Wud be really happy if you teach us how to control the body while going upside down! Thanks!!!

    I think you already talked about the pros of doing handstand for climbers in another video, but I can"t remember which one. Can you explain why in another video ? :) Btw you do an amazing job, I love the atmosphere in your content.

    Went down to read the comments and noticed you just published the video 🙈Great content, as usual. I'll start practising handstands, it seems like a natural evolution after rock climbing for a while.
    Do you also climb with rope (natural or gym) or just boulder?

      Thanks! I actually prefer sport climbing and mostly do that outdoors. In the gym I try to divide my time evenly between bouldering and sport climbing.

    What strength exercises do you recommend if you’re strong enough for the assisted pike hold but not strong enough for a chest to wall walk?

      I know this is 8 months late but I was in the same position because I was heavy - weight loss helped but initially I couldn’t walk all the way up the wall, I went as far as I could to and stopped there for my hold. I wasn’t all the way up against the wall but eventually I could after doing it that way for a while
