Pseudo Planche Push-Ups Form

Hello.

 

I would like to know how good is my form in this exercise, because I didn't used this variation much before starting gymnastic-style training. Thank you.

 

Here's the link: https://vid.me/e/gYyc

Your lower back is arch at the bottom position, you need to get that PPT(flat lower back) and fully protract your scaps at top position.

Benvenuto nel forum!

All Chuchodani said is right but I'd add that you may find it easier to lean if you turn your fingers out slightly (45 degrees is what works for me, but i've seen people having hands at 90 degrees or even fingers turned back ) just to take some pressure off the wrists.

You need to improve the protraction at the top and keep PPT as the others have said.  Before exploring the pseudo planche push-ups, try to master push-ups with protracted scapula and get confident in the planche lean.  There is a lot of information on this forum about planche leans and here too:http://www.reddit.com/r/bodyweightfitness/comments/37mrcv/planche_leans_a_picture_analysis_of_proper_and/ on You don't want to have an exaggerated upper back rounding in your leans, but protraction and a flat spine.  Work on spreading the shoulder blades away from each other (abudction).  From this, you should feel your traps working a lot more.  Also keep posterior pelvic tilt, brace your abs, remembering to breathe and flex your glutes.  Depress your scapula so you feel your lats working.

 ALWAYS keep your planche leans in your training - try to practice them a couple of times a day for practice as well as in your workouts.  They will bring you all the way to a full planche as well as teaching you how to lean into the planche instead of pressing into it - that is key and one of the reasons why many people plateau.

Thanks guys. I'll post another video in the following weeks to test this exercise.
