You continue to show me by example how to improve. Your explanations are clear and understandable. Thanks for another great video full of excellent content as always.
this is the best tutorial, on how to do pike pushup in my opinion after searching and following almost 6 other 30 second videos, just so that I do not have to watch 4 min video, but the details explained here got me in right position instantly.
Thank you for the kind words man and for sharing that, I’m glad my tutorial helped you figure out the pike push up it can be a complicated movement to get down
Always save your videos to my consolidated fitness knowledge playlist: always the most precise, foundational info that though I know it so well is always good to be reminded of x
Thoroughly appreciate that man thank you. I look forward to when I can be full time on here and provide more educational content consistently in this manner. Thanks for watching!
I regret I found you just now in Never seen this exercise before At present I'm far from being able to do it, but I follow you and I'll let you know In my 62, succeing would be a great motivation
You got this man, just ease into it. Even if it means practicing downward dog holds and neutral overhead pressing with dumbbells to break the pike push up into its separate parts before trying the pike push up. If you’re ready for it start with a reduced ROM and then as you get comfortable over time increase the ROM. Thanks for the kind words and sharing your experience 💯
What do you think of the idea of connecting the two upper arms (just above the elbow) with a strap that "passes" in front of the thorax so that the elbows cannot deviate outwards (This deviation shifts the load from the deltoid to other muscles , which we don't want AND increases the risk of rotator cuff injuries)?
Hm that’s an interesting one! Well hand placement can also play a role here. Not going super wide keeping about a shoulder widths distance and intentionally leaning the head past the hands will place more emphasis on the front delts If you have trouble externally rotating your arms in the piked position then your arms might deviate outwards/internally rotating. I can’t say much about the use of a band to assist here since I’ve never tried it or had someone else try it. Might help, but I’d try to teach those mechanics outside of the pike push up position if it’s troublesome for somebody and then reduce the ROM to see if it helps
Hey dude, I just recently stumbled upon this video by trying to perfecting my pike push ups. And was wondering, if you could make a video. On pseudo planche push ups with the same format as this video.
Hey! Just wanted to write back again, I’m completed the program with a lot of help from the first video you made. Just wanted to say you are doing amazing things, keep being great and providing all the amazing content. Just wanted to ask where did you learn to edit?! And what camera are you using haha
Appreciate that thank you for the kind words! I learned mostly through trial and error, but my brother who’s a filmed and has more knowledge with Premier pro gives me solid tips. The camera I use is a Sony A5100 it’s great to start with🤘🏼
@@BodyweightProcess you are amazing, I love the content. Even with the wait between videos, I always appreciate the quality over quantity. Keep doing what you are doing king
@@Addymesticc Looking to really reduce those gaps, my goal is to make this full time in the future and provide more content more often without sacrificing quality. Thanks for the patience and support truly, your words keeps me motivated. I’m here for the long haul 💯
Damn! Ive progressed to 4 sets of 25 declined reps with my feet up on a dining table… i got half way down before i chickened out, worrying about smashing my head on the floor. Damn hard. Next year maybe
That’s impressive! Make sure you’re getting the most out of those. If alls well it sounds like you could progress to Chest to Wall HSPU’s if HSPU is a goal of yours! (and definitely don’t smash your head on the floor 😂) Thanks for watching 🤘
No need to force it, I’d recommend taking a step back and breaking down its counter parts. Here’s 2 exercises to work on 1. Downward Dog 2. Neutral Grip Dumbbell overhead press Become comfortable with the downward dog position and develop a base level of overhead pushing strength with dumbbells if possible. You can really reduce the range of motion as well with the pike push up by using books or blocks for your head to touch making it easier and overtime reducing the height of those objects to increase the range. If an exercise hurts it’s best to back off, focus on easier progressions and revisit when you’ve laid down a new foundation!
It can definitely take time and form doesn’t have to be absolutely perfect at first. Cut the range, keep the knees bent if needed and build up reps overtime 🤘
In my opinion, there’s no such thing as a dangerous exercise, but rather dangerous approaches to exercises. Jumping into something you aren’t yet prepared for or comfortable doing can bite back. But there’s almost always a regression to start with that you can gradually build from. Here for example, if you have zero awareness of your body in space and are uncomfortable being somewhat upside down with pressure on the hands, start here --> 1. Seated dumbbells overhead presses 2. Static downward dog position Both relatively safe, mimic the pike push ups patterns, and can be progressed easily. Once both have become proficient and gradually progressed, if you want, you can then you can start with reduced range of motion pike push ups. You’ve developed a base for the dynamic pushing portion while getting stronger holding just a pike position. Or avoid the pike push up all together 🤷 Thanks for watching 💯
Nice technic, I always had a feeling that was doing it wrong.
Also glad to hear from you again I missed your videos. Best of wishes

holy it is definitely a pretty difficult movement I think I got it first try but what challenging is pushing back up nevertheless good video man
What exercises would you recommend to improve hamstring mobility for pike push ups?

This is my first learning pike push up and doing pike push
Gradually work into them and enjoy the process 💯
nice
I fall forward when I try to do this and that's my j dislocated my jaw, I Quit.
Don't quit
@@Weirdo_on_YThe was just looking for an excuse to quit. He was going to quit regardless. I know that mentality.
Then you must try it again & again
@@wan2shuffleyep that's right
you only dislocated your jaw, you didn't die or something, so you can just try again
Keep hurting myself with this exercice. Cannot get it right. Really frustrating
No need to force it, I’d recommend taking a step back and breaking down its counter parts. Here’s 2 exercises to work on
1. Downward Dog

I think i am weak for pike push up.
😢
I seriously dont understand why its so hard to get the form right
It can definitely take time and form doesn’t have to be absolutely perfect at first. Cut the range, keep the knees bent if needed and build up reps overtime 🤘
@BodyweightProcess thanks, I found that my issue was the shoulders, I was moving like I would with a push up
𝖕𝖗𝖔𝖒𝖔𝖘𝖒 🤣
This seems stupidly dangerous
