Hey Nuno, 2 corrections: hips lower and more rounded back.

Thanks. I was trying to put my hips like in the course video. Do you mean more rounded upper back (protaction) or middle back? I think I have more protracted scapula that the athlete in the course video.. 

Thanks!

Protraction will round your middle/upper back. if the rounded part is too high is because of a lack of depression.

Hey @Alessandro Mainente, is this better? 

Also, what do you think of the protaction in the course video athlete? ( just curious )

Thanks for the help!!

Hey Nuno not yet, can I see your 30'' tuck planche?

Hey @Alessandro MainenteMainente here it is 30s tuck planche as requested

Thanks for the help! 

This is not bad, so your main limitation is HOW you extend the hips. In your open planche it's done by spine extension while it should be done with hips extension.

Thanks, I think I understand. I'll work on it and get back to you! 

Thanks for the help as always

Is more technical than strength....try this activation work...you need a place where the knees can go under the support....it is a variation that i use with my students when they need more proprioception! you need to focus on opening the hips without losing the upper body activation. do it as slow as you can.

Thanks @Alessandro Mainente! Awesome drill!!

Hi @Alessandro Mainente! I know I still need to improve my technique, but do you think this is better? I have been working on your cues. Thanks for the feedback!!

At this level, the most proficient thing is to change as little as possible the alignment. in your case moving the upper legs and the hips make substantial changes. you must start with legs already out!
