GUYS! Let us know what you think of this tip, and this video format?! Cheers!!!

What do you think is harder, the tuck planche or high frog stand? Tuck planche is harder for leverage but you can lock out while high frog stand w/o support is harder to hold a lower isometric position. I imagine there would be some carry over as I'm practicing tuck planche right now. Actually more tips for planche would also be great. I've tried different drills but I can't bridge the gap from frog to tuck. The only thing that seems to help is lots of planche leans. Also since I've practiced planche leans with shoulders over hands I sometimes planche too much in my handstand by habit. Hard to fix that.

@@SchoolofCalisthenics What band would your suggest for the assisted exercise.
One thing to emphasize is to keep the knees close together when you raise the hips. That helps me a lot. And great video! Love the format and information. Especially the band assisted methods 👍
I will give the band a try. My frogstands are spot on but to lift off into a handstand...it is my impossible, for now, hopefully not for long! Cheers guys!
This exactly the video I needed to see at my point of progression. Thanks for making it!!

First comment! Plus... I'm just starting to work towards a handstand. Last week, I managed my first frogstands, and it feels impossible that I could move from that position straight through into a handstand. So this video comes at just the right time! Thanks guys, your channel is one of the most helpful and realistic for calisthenics beginners like me.

Awesome!!!! SOOOOO pleased we can be part of helping you to learn new things and redefine your impossible - Jacko
Great video. Might it help to over time set your knees higher on your triceps in the frogstand? Ive seen yoga videos where the knees are almost in the armpits. Doesn’t that theoretically reduce the motion up to handstand? Again, great instruction in this video!
Awesome vid boys!! (No surprises really) I’m doing two leg off eccentrics at the moment but this band exercise will compliment it perfectly. Thanks as always.
video quality keeps getting better and better guys, the colour and shots in this are brilliant. contents great as ever.
The band assistance is brilliant. I'll definitely try that!! Thanks so much!!
Love it! A real calisthenics break down of the progressions, that leaving it to just the not those demotivating macro-progressions that everyone already knows, that demotivate so many people. Arnold Schwarzenegger always said, 'Little victories add up!'
Top advice fellas! 👌

I recently came across your channel and have been loving the videos you guys make. This transition is something I want to get down and have been trying to figure out how to build the strength for it. Even doing the eccentric from handstand to frog stand is too difficult now (I go down too fast). I watched another video of yours where you talk about removing one leg at a time in frog stand and playing around with movement which has been what I’ve been doing. Going to give this a try and let you know how it works out. Thanks again!

What a heat tip!! Where should you be looking? Forward or down? What kind of resistant band is that?
Thanks so much for this tutorial. It's the first one I've seen of yours so far and I just tried this and I can hold one leg off for a couple of seconds for about 2 or 3 reps each side, then I use a bit thicker band and do the same. I don't feel like it's a good start really. How often do you practice this and what intensity? I'm gonna keep it up but I'd really like some advice please.

Great question Clarky, and we've actually recorded a video this week addressing that exact issue with 3 horizontal row exercises you can do with a set of rings. Will be out in a few weeks, but in short if your spend a lot of time slumped sitting, firstly try to get up and move about during the day everything now and again (even if just for 5 or 10 seconds), when training working on loosening off the anterior (front) portion of the shoulders and pecs as well as the lats and then use things like YTW's (video in free beginners guide) and horizontal rowing to get those rhomboids and posterior belts fired up as you said! Hope that helps? - Jacko

at 2.25 you mention to avoid collapsing when we take both knees off the elbow we need to build isometric strength in the shoulders. You don't expand on how to do this exactly much, what is the best way to develop this strength?
What would you recommend for strengthening the arms and shoulders for the push from frogstand to tuck handstand? Pike press-ups?

Yes leaning forward into the position should help you find the balance point better
just tried this. didn't end well :D will keep at it, but I think I need to flexibility and strength. I struggle to control my hips, so I bend my back, and have no hamstring flexibility. so doing this move is pretty messy for me. I can handstand with straight arms fine though :P
What weight is the band? kilos/pounds
Hey guys. I don't have a place where I can use a band like that. I can hold one leg off and switch to another for a rep each.... Its very hard though. But I can no wayyyy hold both legs off my arms, how do I build that iso strength to get that? I'm trying to take them both off and lower my weight slowly but it's just not producing results for me :/ thanks and love the channel ✌️
I can do 3 hspu on wall but when I take legs of arms, I just sink

What's amazing is that no matter how much weight-lifting and bodybuilding you've done in the past, when you do calistenics and hit the muscles from a different direction it's as if you've never exercised in your life. The muscles are strong in the weight-lifting and bodybuilding exercises but weak as kittens when trying to do frog stand to hand stand movements. Weird, huh?
