lifesnotfair Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I kinda like seeing more reps in your log. I kept reading about the 4 singles you did each day on some stuff, always wondered if you'd ever try repping something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honk Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) - I want a wider base on basically everything, next time I'll peak chins, I'll hit a one armer, promised - By the time I get back into climbing, I want to have bad ass work capacity - Chris Mathison made a good point about variety in training. Got me thinking Chris. Thanks alot. Edited October 8, 2008 by honk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrankyBoy Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) How does your handstand practice look alike? Edited October 14, 2008 by FrankyBoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honk Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 I just kick up in a handstand and try to hold it. Very humbling... I might try some handstands against a wall, but I remember a post from Ivar where he recomended against it, cause you are likely to develop bad habits. Tips welcome.

Griparn Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Whats your goal with the handstand? Standing still or handwalking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knyaz Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 It took me weeks to learn, its all about practice and having the confidance strength to support your body with just your hands what I did was I used an old mattress and I would try to hold a handstand position for as long as possible before losing my balance and falling down( onto the mattress), you can use pushup handles to make the position even more callenging One thing you can do against the wall is handstand position pushups this will definately help you strengthen your shoulders best of luck!

honk Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) 1. Get a solid handstand 2. fullrange, freestanding handstand pushups on parallettes Handstand push ups against a wall are not that challenging for me, I think getting a handstand is just a matter of balance in my case.

Thanks for your input, Knyaz. Its also a matter of wrist strength. When at my peak in doing handstands I really could play with my wrists to move my body (or doing corrections of my position just by applying some wrist force). But doing handstands regularily will definately address that issue. Edited October 16, 2008 by FrankyBoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginroth Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Just out of curiosity, why don't you squat? (hehe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honk Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 (edited) I just don't like squatting. I'd have to learn proper form again... Most likely I'd have to work on my flexibilty to be able to squat with good form. ...but I just started front squatting... at least I'm flexible enough to front squat. In the end, the deadlift one of my favorites and I more or less hate squatting. Edited October 20, 2008 by honk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
