stiff arm, stiff leg press handstand

any drills that will help me work up to this?

I have straddle press and bent arm stiff leg, but this one is just not happening for me.

suggestions?

Are we talking stiff body press handstand ( planche press to handstand? ) or pike press to handstand?

For planche press

- good planche

- handstand to planche

- planche press to HS with a spot, ( tuck and straddle solo )

no, it is a press to handstand from a standing pike

i'm not up on all the lingo just yet, sorry

This is more difficult than from a straddle. I used to do these by planching them out but ideally you would just lean a bit and pull your hips up by the good hip flexor engagement.

Hi StevenL,

Did you see this thread discussing Press Handstands?

It's not that intuitively named, so you may have missed it!?

Cheers,
