I Yuri As a climber, your analysis about strength make me laugh... because it's so true ! being strong enough at the beginning of handstand learning made me planching so much. Many thanks for your tips about it, I also need to work my shoulder flexibility that is awefull at the moment Cheers
I knew I had a tendency to slightly planche, but it just became a huge problem now that I’m working on my pressup. Thanks for this! I’ll be relearning my handstand technique.
So damn this came out! I just recently moved off the wall with my handstands and started experiencing sharp pains and tightness in my forearms. My handstands don't have an as exaggerated lean, but it's still there. Thank you for this!
Great video Yuri. I have this problem, but tried to solve it with bodyline drills on the walls. It makes sense to me to go to both extremes. Thanks for the information! Cheers from Thomas
Thanks Yuri. I know I'm doing this, but I couldn't find in any of the youtube tutorials where they discuss this issue. Thanks a lot. I'm at a 20 to 25 second handstand now after 7 weeks of training. And I am Slightly planched. All the other tutorials speak about arched- or bananahandstands, but when I filmed myself, I always saw a straight bodyline (exept for the shoulders), knowing that I am able to get a 180 degree ankle in my shoulders. So exactly this video was what I needed. Next couple of weeks I will try to fix my bodyline and after that I can start training longer holds. Your video could be my start to the adored 1-minute-handstand. So thanks a lot.
cheers! yeah I try to do my best to discuss some of the subtle details of the technique rather than the standard click-bait regurgitation of many channels
Thanks A LOT. After a few sets of those exercices i instantly felt the difference on the final freestanding attemps. I know what to work more now. Thanks mate
I discovered that I'm a mini plancher when I started to train elbow stands for tiger bend hspu. For myself, it's a shoulder flexibility issue. I can compensate for my inflexibility by using a wider stance with palm placement, but this wont work for the elbow stand - my forehead would touch the floor with wider spacing between the elbows. If I bring them closer together, the closed shoulder angle once again puts my forehead into contact with the floor. To this day, I can only get a tiger bend hspu using two boxes allowing my head to drop below ground level.
Unless your reading, you would speak to the viewer better if you look strait down the lens. Your a legend that I refer to when talking handstands to friends and associates.
Love your tutorials and adore that you have one of my favorite painters on your wall - wanderer über dem Nebelmeer - though now I will forever wonder if he would have a flowing red beard if he could turn around...
Thank you so much for this video! I tend to lean into a planche position in my handstands, I Love these wall drills to help correct this. Your channel is awesome 🙌🏼
Thanks yuri sir 🙏..... Btw i have an issue, My left shoulder is weak as compared to right shoulder and also left is less flexible how i can create balance between both...plz help...
how do you expect me to help you? The best option i can suggest is to take a workshop or book an online coaching session. Shoulders are complicated and I don't want to give general advice since I have no idea what your issues are second best option option is to familiarize yourself with my material. I have put out a lot of stuff over the years, free and for a low price that could be helpful to you
Great Yuri! What's your warmup prior to handstand work? General mobility and core plus wrist prep? Or does it vary from day to day? What's one exercise you always do prior to handbalancing?
Could you consider mini planche a progression on the way to straight handstand as it is a bit easier? Kind of like frog hold is a progression even though you are not straight.
ughh i always planche a little bit....for the life of me I can't get my shoulders open in freestanding handstand. However I can do a straight line when I do chest to wall...what are best shoulder excercises?
best shoulder exercises for what? there are many details that need to be addressed; and it may not be a shoulder flexibility issue if you can do it on the wall, though it really depends on how you use the wall My best suggestion would be to attend a workshop, do on online coaching session, or check out my book and instructional videos
hey yuri. When I kick up to a handstand I enter a mini-planche and then correct it to straight body line. I also bend my elbows and straighten them after I feel I am balanced. Any tips for kicking up to a straight handstand?
lots of tips, but too many variables so I can't give you any precise tips unless I actually see what you are doing. Otherwise I'm just shooting in the dark best tips would be to attend a workshop or do an online coaching session, otherwise there is a lot of free information in my social media, blog, and youtube. My ebook and vimeo handstand balance series also cover this
gonna try some drill in your ebook. First time I read it I focused on different aspects of handstands so I skipped this drill. Talking about kicking up and wall scissors btw. we'll see how it goes
You’re inferring a lot of things that may not apply to you. And I’m not going to give you an answer because I haven’t seen you do a handstand, and I respect myself as a coach. I don’t know if you need to worry about having a posterior pelvic tilt because number one, I don’t know if you can even do a handstand yet, and number two is that posterior pelvic tilt only applies when you can get an open shoulder position which I also don’t know if you have or not
If you want some proper advice on how you should frame and how it applies to your individual situation, I offer online coaching. I also recommend looking through some of my older RUclips videos as there’s a good chance they might answer a lot of the questions you have
Ehh... but running with forefoot strike and knees bent is the natural and highly efficient way to run.. it actually reduces impact on joins and saves the knees. Upright walking using heel strike is more efficient for slow pace / short stride (and only possible in other circumstances because of the additional padding afforded by shoes - people who walk barefoot on hard surfaces rather quickly learn to avoid it).
one of the most underrated channels available
cheers!
Totally agreed

Man I just noticed this problem in my handstand last night and stumbled upon this video randomly today. Thank you!
glad you found it useful!
Great video Yuri. I have this problem, but tried to solve it with bodyline drills on the walls. It makes sense to me to go to both extremes. Thanks for the information! Cheers from Thomas
cheers! yeah with adults sometimes it's worth learning how to do something technically wrong in order to appreciate the proper technique
I did my shoulders forward conciously, now i know how it worked. Gonna change it. Thanks mate.
Absolutely insane and amazing way to learn underbalance. Thank you!
familiarizing our awareness with the extremes of the body positions is such a powerful method. Brilliant :)
Nice video and explanation! I agree 100 %. Nice examples too
On point. This is exactly what my problem is. I'ma try what you advise and see if it helps. Thanks so much!
Thanks Yuri.

Zixlo5.6 awesome, really glad to hear the improvement
Great job. Going in without being too technical 👌🏾💪🏾
Absolutely brilliant

Just when I thought I was getting better. Thank you for humbling me! Brb going to correct this now.

The mini planche is it mostly caused by tightness in the shoulders thoracic spine?
could be, but it's more complex than that.
if you lack shoulder mobility and try to do a straight handstand it may be the case
u are right !
I tend to mini planche and especially when pressing to handstands in all three ways but thank God i don't have any pain or discomfort in my wrists 🤔

I think that people do this mostly because they don’t have enough flexibility in the shoulders.
Exactly. Very surprised he didn't mention it. It's not voluntary, it's a compensations for lack of flexibility.
