A Training Tutorial showing Exercises from a recent Parallette Session of mine. This workout aims at improving Core Strength and Climbing Antagonists, and is probably best suited for the Beginner to Intermediate Parallettes / Calisthenics Athlete. We're going to take a look at how one can progress from the L-Sit to the Handstand, how the two can be combined, and how one can get closer to the Planche.
Please don't forget to drop some likes and opinions if you've got something from the video, I'd appreciate it, and I'll see you soon in the next one!

Here are some more stats about this session for those who are interested: The focus was to get as much L-sit to Hand Stand done as possible. I always rested as much as I wanted in between attempts, so that I'm as fresh as possible but not too cooled down already (somewhere in between 5 and 7 minutes). The total duration of the session was around 1 hour and 20 minutes. Not all attempts are shown, only those which I found interesting for some reason, I think it were around 3 normal Press to Hand Stands, around 7 L-Sit to Hand Stands including 2 unsuccessful ones, and 5 Planche attempts or so. As always thanks for watching, drop some likes and opinions if you've got something from this episode I'd appreciate it, and I'll see you soon in the next one!

The key to open the shoulder angle in a handstand is building up tension in your abs (the feeling of pulling your navel against your spine). In this way the back gets straightened which slightly moves your center of gravity and allows you to open the shoulders. Word of advice from 13 years of gymnastics experience ;). Love the videos btw, keep up the good work!

Hi Mani! Try doing this with your neck relaxed and the top of the head pointing at the floor, your back will benefit from that, and you'll also look more straight. Btw i love your videos, keep on the good work!

Another excellent tutorial video Mani. I've enjoyed seeing this channel evolve over the past couple of years into what is, in my view, the best climbing-specific instructional channel on this whole website with none of the awful sophistry and pay to view bullshit you often find elsewhere. You have a genuine talent for communicating and production in all honesty. Have you considered creating your own website? It was a cool surprise to also bump into you on Varg's channel too haha.

@ManitheMonkey 6 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the nice words, I appreciate that. So far I'm not into that whole own website thing (and the subsequent selling of something which it so often entails), and I doubt it will ever be interesting for me, at least as long as youtube exists in the way it does now (it changes rapidly though). A truly reasonable man will stumble upon Vargs channel sooner or later :)

For first part, where you're learning forward, I just thought about something? Maybe practicing forg or crane stand on paralletes is comparable?

@SamMoore19 6 жыл бұрын

yo! solid work! The reason you cant do a straight handstand is a mobility issue. Im guessing you have really tight lats because you're a climber but it could also be your pecs. Stretch em out and it'll be perfect!

@derekxiaoEvanescentBliss 6 жыл бұрын

Maybe try to integrate bridge into your stretch routine for shoulder flexibility. If it's too hard, elevate the shoulders(or feet, I forget.) see which one is easier, and then work to bridge.

I have no idea how people get the straight back to arms shoulder 180 degree handstand I just don't have the flexibility, i have the strength but maybe it takes years for the flexibility to come

@MarincaGheorghe 11 ай бұрын

You would have to move your arms/shoulder right along the body line, not move the head 😊.

I have a question should i know how to handstand without the parallettes first?

@circusbysilk 3 жыл бұрын

I personally think u don't need to learn that first bc i think it both feels very different. Look, when i could already do a normal handstand for 5 sec hold and I tried it on parallels i found it quite difficult. Just bc i wasn't used to train on paralletes (have to say: at that point I was not albe to throw my legs in the air slowly, only fast like gymnasts do). Just my experience, can feels different for everybody:) hope this helps u a little

@ernielambert7419 Жыл бұрын

In Gymnastics the Swiss Handstand is a straddle press to handstand. The video I saw showed the straddle leg posiion to start - not a straddle support like the L-sit support.

It would be easier to start without parallettes, wouldn't it?!

@ManitheMonkey 6 жыл бұрын

I tried the press to handstand without parallettes already, and I can say it's definitely harder for me. Not a lot, but a little. The reasons I think: You are starting even lower, and it's harder to hold balance whilst moving up.

@sandromaranetto1173 6 жыл бұрын

Yes, for sure, i know as i have been trying handstand for a lot of time... But if i had to talk with someone who has never tried to handstand, probably i would suggest to start with easier exercises that do not include parallettes, because stability is much more if you can use all your hand!
