FREDERIC DUPONT Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Have you looked at the Foundation & Handstand series? They might be the shortest road to your come back and attaining your goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl Kallio Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I'd say it's worth it. The progressions are well designed so it saves you time and will probably help prevent injuries and get you going faster. Unless you're living in a cardboard shack half starving and saving up for the eye operation that will let you see again I'd recommend making a sacrifice and saving up.

Keilani Gutierrez Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I've seen some pages from F1 but atm I can't afford it. then just work on your basics. trust us, go back to using Hollow Holds, superman arch holds, pb support, dead hangs, go back to the pre-reqs and make it the focus of your training until you get F1. before leaving to a business convention on Thursday, I had taken a moment and played around in my workout area(taking a break from packing) and I performed a 7-8sec body lever negative as a strength test. several months ago, i could not come close to this and check my sig, according to Foundation(al) strength standards, im a raw beginner. go back to basics, polish those basics until you -can- afford F1. you will understand when you get the course.

Blairbob Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Handstand every day. Most gymnasts will work some form of HS work every day. Pre-team gymnasts roughly workout 2-3x per week, HS every day. Beginning team gymnasts, 3-4x/week. HS every day. Intermediate to Advanced gymnasts, 4-6x/week. HS every day. If you can do Tuck Planche Pushups or FL pullups still after a year off, you have got some strength. Still a good idea to go through the basics as a warmup. If you are strong, then this stuff is easy. If you're not...well you need to be doing this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
