Hello. I'm Miłosz from Poland from Street Workout comunity. I have some questions about trainings for full planche. I can do straddle planche, straddle maltese. full maltese but i can't do full planche in perfect form. The second problem is no protraction in planches. How i can improve this? I'm working all the time of sculpa position and i'm focus on perfect form but which exercises are bests for this? How many times i should train for improve my planche and which exercises are bests to increase my holds?

It be easier if you watch my some videos on insta: www.instagram.com/majlosw

 

thanks!

Hi Milosz, If you struggle with protraction means that you have not followed the correct progression on building the planche. the ability to hold progression must be previously mastered in all the previous planche variations, from the elbow plank up to the planche leans. the same concept it is valid for the maltese, no protraction means no shoulders stabilization. At this point, I cannot suggest you to train for the full planche.

thanks for reply but my problem is - i can hold tuck planche and advenced tuch planche in good form with protraction, the same as leans - I have perfect form. Do you think the ruber powerband should help me to improve protraction in my planche? You can see bellow i do perfect form "I hope :D " and i can't raise my legs although my lean is deep. What do you think?

The answer it is simple. if you can hold the advanced tuck variation with full protraction but not the straddle maybe the jump from adv tuck to straddle it is too demanding for you.

In the videos you posted you don't hold the position for more than 2-3 seconds. Why don't you try to build that up first?

I second Matic. Add volume to the previous progressions. I m very far from this, but still i think this recommendation make very much sense. Keep on adding volume. Good luck.

yes ofc, but only in this video - i can hold 12-15s. How long I should hold that?

At least double that amount of time. For more specific programming on planche work, I recommend the Foundation Series. The progressions, mobility, and hold times are all programmed for you in that course.

Hi Milosz, this lean planche is not perfect. I agree with all the stated answers above. In order to get a perfect full planche, you need to do a big step back and work towards the progressions with a perfect form. Isometric holds are very muscular specific, and performing a hold with a bad muscular activation is not gonna help you to hold it with a correct form. The fastest way is, as I said, to start with the most basic positions in order to strengthen the specific hold and to learn how to activate your muscles correctly. I had kind of the same problem and did a big step back. I dont regret it at all. In addition, learning a full planche with a correct form is also going to help you achieving harder positions faster, as it could be the maltese. I checked your IG and you would need some serious refinement work. Good luck in your journey sir :)

Our Foundation Series is exactly what you're looking for, Milosz :) You'll work step by step towards a straddle planche with specific sets, reps/hold times, and mobility. You're strong and I think with some more specific programming, you'll have that planche in no time! Begin with Foundation One -the upper body workouts focus on planche- and you'll notice a huge improvement in your planche before you even reach tuck planche work in the later courses. The basics will be fantastic for you and it shouldn't take long at all before you reach specific planche work in Foundation Two, Three, and Four.

Start by learning to activate the correct muscles with a solid plank position and planche lean. Once you are able to activate the correct muscles (scapular protraction and depression, posterior pelvic tilt, tight abs and gluteous, pointed toes and body completely in a straight line), I suggest that you work towards the progressions and the corresponding correct muscular activation in order to build a strong basis. This may seem to be a super big step back, but it is the shortest way to achieve it.
