liegelord Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I finally did a straddle press handstand on Friday, though it is with bent arms. Question, my goal is to get a press with straight arms: am I better off training the press handstand with straight arms against the wall still, keep working with bent arms freestanding or both? I hate working against the wall, will there be a carryover or will the bent arm press progress to a straight arm press?Here's a video, though not a very good example[http://marcsathletics.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deljosque Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 work your triceps, your biceps helps in the press to hst when your triceps is to weak you can'tkeep your arms straight i learnd it with bent arms an 10 later i could preform it with straight arms . keep pressing work your hamstrings (flexibility and work your triceps.succes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I hated working them against the wall, however I think it's a much better option. Right now my press HS on rings has a similar bend but I work it with as straight of arms as possible with the goal of lock out (worth a value higher).
