What to do after handstand pushups? Here’s a start – 90 degree pushups. They were feeling good this week. Here I’ve clustered 3 together (~10 sec rest between each). I am working to get low enough until I eventually get down to a back lever-like position and then pull back up to the handstand. And to preemptively answer the common questions – 5’7″ 77Kg 120Kg 1 million years Thank you. -Jim

I do have one question, only looking for a small hint of advice. I’ve been really trying to get my handstand done right, and i’ve been throwing myself up against a wall for quite some time, and then moving my feet away from the wall, and i can only hold that for a second or two until i fall backwards, even trying to push the weight to the front of my hands. I read your beastskills page religiously too, any help to really keep the balance?
SAIL!
nice job!
Wow! Impressive
@anonamatron Hmm then, I might get a set like that too, been looking for something to use for dips!
@BeastSkills Right on. I hope to one day attempt a skill such as this.
@Zanjistic With the greater range of motion, I’d say yes. This is what I’m going for!
@Demus15 I was saving my arms for the 90 degree pushups the next day! ;o)
Bene
@eamh2002 No. I’ve done 300 lbs in the past (see my powerlifting video), but I have not worked the lift in some time.
Have you tried your max bench press recently? If you have, how much can you press? :p
Nice not even 0.1% of the worlds population can do this
@nugety Easily… PVC pipes are pretty strong. I have similar parallettes. They really don’t even flex.
Is this harder than on ground?
Retarded strength and control!
whats the question for the answer “one million years ” ?
that’s A~W~E~S~O~M~E !!
@nugety yes
Are those PVC pipes supporting your full weight o.O?
As i watched this, i noticed myself going, “oh. ohh. oh- what the fuck!!! AHHH ahh” Incredible strength and control man; props to you
Where was the jerk?
Great work jim
always awesome and inspiring. thanks man
awesome
@Coffeenescafe how long it takes to train this
How much can you bench?…………Just playin! This is like a handstand planch pushup. Very cool. I had some paralettes made recently and am working just on stabilizing myself in a tucked handstand…I’ll get there someday!
