When you are ready to level up your body weight gymnastics training, the press to handstand is a great movement to learn.
The Press to Handstand program addresses the challenges people face when trying to unlock this skill. Throughout the plan, you'll focus on building compression strength, shoulder mobility, and timing required for a smooth transition from the ground to a fully extended handstand position.
This program is designed by elite coaches, who understand the nuances of each stage of the press to handstand.
Through progressive drills and tailored exercises, you'll gradually develop the necessary strength, mobility, and proprioception to execute a flawless press to handstand with confidence.
This program will focus on two specific areas of the Press to Handstand: strength for the handstand and compression for efficiency of movement. The drills will slowly ramp up in difficulty as you progress through the plan.
