UNLOCK PRESS To Handstand with a Jump!

If you're close to the PRESS HANDSTAND try adding very slow jumps or momentum. In this video I show you how. This can be done back to wall, freestanding, in Tuck, Straddle or Pike. Ideally you will already have a controlled eccentric press and be able to jump to handstand. We can then merge the two and fine tune the momentum.

Let me know in the comments if you have any questions or would like to suggest any future videos.

Finally going to prioritize the press to the top of my training. I have some decent prerequisites
- frogstand press to hs
- pike and pancake flexibility
- jump tuck and straddle to hs
- basic handstand shapes
- head in tuck HS
-60 sec HS
I've been putting off training the press but IT IS TIME!

Hey! I would love to see a video about spinal side flexion in HS (without shifting the weight to one arm)

Mind: I got it. Great tutorial.

Body: Nope.

Does the press handstand besides flexibility does the press handstand use hip lower back extension muscles? Is that why headstand leg raises are consider a accessory for it?

Started doing elevated tuck, straddle and pike jumps. Would that help make Press to handstand stronger?

Question: Should I be able to do a wall straddle press and/or wall straddle negative before being able to do the freestanding straddle press?
I can do a really slow controlled freestanding straddle negative, landing very softly on my tiptoes and in the correct starting position, but I cannot do a wall press nor negative against the wall. And obviously no freestanding straddle press either, it's just the negative that's on point after working on it for quite some time.
I've often heard the wall press is not a very efficient way to learn it, so I skipped this entirely (also I don't like it). If it's not a good drill, then what on earth do people actually use it for? And is it bad if I can't do the wall drill? Does this means something important is missing, preventing me from doing the normal press?

Just saying... I unlocked my jump with a press.
