Now I have a pretty decent HS on floor, parallells and blocks. But I tried a ring HS for fun the other day:
Please use a mat next time. Falling forwards from there would be quite painful.
extend the arms in rings handstand is the most difficult part my friend, is necessary to learn how to balance moving the rings and not bending your arms.
the process to get the strength is slow slow and slow.
i'm not a monster in rings hs but until now is the most difficult element i've learned and i'm surprised that for my coach i did it much better then some competitive gymnast in my facility, for sure best result comes after helsinki seminar.
Nice one Alex! Im going to let this one stay on the side for now, untill i get further along Foundation. Maybe get a mat :-)
i started to think about a mat after a great number of falls!!!!!
Alex did you ever try it RTO?
yes and it's coming more simple since i've started some adv straigth arm element after London seminar.
Actually the longest hold on rings i did without RTO is around 30 seconds, with RTO the balance becomes critical and the holds become short around 6-7 seconds. For now i'm doing only maintenance until H1 will be mastered.
Wow sick that is quite a difference. How much were you able to turn the rings out?
45°.
