I'm currently working on the tuck planche. I already have a maximum of 30 seconds hold. I don't feel any serious struggle in my arms, shoulders, but I really have a hard time holding my knees close to my chest (or even lifting up to it). Am I lacking of core or abs strength, or what?
How can I train specifically to that muscle group without tuck planche and with bodyweight?
thx in advance
Get into a hang and practice tuck hang or tuck ups or do the same while in support.
sorry for not understanding, but what do you mean by 'while in support' ? :shock: Still hanging or not?
So this is the support position:
And so in this position bring your knees to your chest either for time or reps.
Yes.
thx,
i guess this also can be done on higher things - like chairs, etc. - because i don't have a ring 
Yes, two chairs can be used in place of a set of dip bars.
when i first started to planche i realized i needed butt muscle.
So for awhile my butt would cramp while in a straddle planche position.
Butt muscle is a plus for a planche
