If this is impossible and you want to feel what it's like to float and build up the neural connections for achieving this and get used to the movement pattern, you can do the band-assisted version to bridge the gap between these and decline pike pushups (but you should be pretty good with decline pike pushups to begin with). 1. Attach a looped band to a bar (just throw it over the bar and loop it through itself) 2. Put the band around your hips/waist and then place your hands on the ground but place your hands BEHIND the bar (the top of your head will be toward the bar, feet will be furthest away) so that the band will be pulling your hips toward the bar/anchor point to help lift your hips up. 3. Do a proper pike pushup (head going forward liberally like simonster shows) and you could float! Either keep your feet straight like he shows or tuck and control your float in the tuck. Both are fun and good to try!
Because of a shoulder injury (i think it was impingement) I had to slow down overhead pressing Now its healed and i started shoulder mobility and i can do pike push ups again I have lost some strength but i will get that back 💯
this is hard af , need to work towards it
Hard to balance. Strength isnt a problem in the main muscles. You need strong stabilization
@@ghad6799legs barley come off the ground
Simonster coming in with the top tier content again
I need to work towards these

Need to try, not sure I can even do one😅
Very helpful,.thanks!! 👌
This is an insightful video.
man i was just attempting to hold a 90 straddle degree hold and it ended like a floating pike push up
I can't bring my legs off the ground what so ever please help
Easy to do as a kid, hard as an adult.
Curious: how much of core engagement does it involve? Or is the core not seriously engaged in getting the floating pike?
Greatest problem with pikes is compensations when we fatigue
Thank you

That's awesome man. Really inspiring. Love from the land of birth of Yoga (Bharat).
Didn't know anyone else did these. I found myself floating with some reps without trying to. Nice to know I was doing something right.
Wouldn’t putting your heel against the wall help with that issue?
