handstand pushups

[WhatTheFuckKids]

bad form, better postition is more balence and touch your nose to the ground

[JoinCrossFire]

......... i did 5 stadin in one spot........ no movment what so ever. then i started walking around and did like 9 .. nothing harddd

[TheJamesrocket]

the guy was also a runner, unlike me, and he had better lungs than I did. Thats what created the illusion of greater strength, especially during volume work!

[TheJamesrocket]

of a drag. I'm not sure which is better: Absolute strength, or Relative strength. Now, I'm on my way to doing pushups at an angle, cause going past 55 or so repetitons (as with anything) only builds stamina, and not strength. Maybe one day I'll be able to do vertical pushups like you. Another thing I noticed: Sometimes, when there was a guy who could pump out more repetitions than me on the bench press, I wrongly assumed he was stronger than me. As I later found out,

[TheJamesrocket]

Nice job. Alot of people bash equilibrics (like handstand pushups), but what those people don't realise is that theres not one in fifty guys with even a 300-pound bench press can do 50 honest push-ups! And thats just horizontal pushups, not vertical like you do! I must admit that I was once one of 'those guys'. I had a 280 lbs benchpress, but I could only do 32 horizontal pushups. Now, I've trained to overcome that. I can actually do 55 pushups, but am down to a 210 lbs benchpress, which is sort

[GerrDitrih]

hey, dont cheat! Pick a floor with your nose at the lowest point of pushup))

[in1pieces]

dang i can only do 16 against wall. Can someone teach me how to balance handstand without falling? And how to do handstand from sitting position. Thanks in advance! Dare not do handstand without wall more than a meter away from me

[VulcanZoar]

Well done, man. I bet if you had your legs leaning against a wall, so you don't do the balancing choir, you could've probably done much more. Since your efforts wouldn't be divided by push up and maintain balance, it would be concentrated on the strength. But doing the balancing is the harder task, and that's prolly the better one to work on so good job.

[corbbroc]

my max is 18 against a wall

[elcarekak]

The first time that I´m lift a Weight

Easily I did 10 reps with 100 kgs

I get strength only with push up and L-sit yo Handstand

[Dogotxen]

haha nice watch that tv almost fell ;p

[aznbeanz]

nice man u should go nose - ground though :D:D.. though i can't talk xDkeep training hope to see more of these vids from you

[quacky5678]

just remember to heep your feet and legs pinned together!

[SLACKERSLAVE]

are you sure that the record is 10 cause i did 5 once

[Madzp]

His record is 10, only for him!

[banditDK17]

Slackerslave, i think you misunderstood something, i meant my record is 10 :) Any gymnast can do much better than that. Right now, i can do 10 all the way down.

[UnknownXV]

Haha, his personal record, not the world record. :P

[worstbasarbesucher2]

hiho! you have to touch the ground wth your face =) and train your balance a bit more :P shit song but nice strengh.

[banditDK17]

i gave up doing those (half) handstand push ups long ago )) Now i got to 9 (chin to the floor) handstand push ups =)I also improved my result in bench-press from 72,5kg 7 reps to 100kg 2 reps in 2,5 months by doing lots of handstand push ups so they are helpful lol!

[stuartmduncan]

To be honest, if you could do 7 reps at 72.5 kg, then you would have always been able to do 2 reps of 100kg. Vertical pushups wont really do much in helping your bench press. Vertical pushups works your anterior deltoid while bench press is working the pecs. However the tricep is used alot in both so this may help. If your wanting to see an improvement, do 7 reps at 100!

[banditDK17]

You must be kidding, right? if you can do 7 reps with 72.5kg, it doesn't mean that you can even bench 80kg. It takes time for your muscles to get used to bigger weights. And there was actually a formula for counting your 1RM, but reality is always different. Handstand pushups help with arm strength required for bench-press. I did 8 reps with 110kg on a decline yesterday and then set my new record 120kg - 2 reps so i keep progressing as you can see.

[totaldollar]

@banditDK17 hey i do handstand pushup with my hand slightly outside my shoulder and I think is much harder than the hands width your doing... what do you think of closer handstand pushing?

[banditDK17]

thx dude, i know what u mean, i can do em as well, but i just prefer doing em this way =) i'll buy ankle weights soon, so i'll be able to handstand push-ups against the wall with some add. weights, that will help to increase strength, once u get stronger u will be better at these as well +))

[zakaveli]

very good I see that you're improving, Keep posting, try it with dumbells on the ground or even better a dip bar,

[BrendanGreaves111]

Good Balance but you not going very far down. Thanks for your comment on my vid btw. I guess we BOTH need practise

[banditDK17]

Yes, i know Brendan, i started with these push-ups, got to 10 and now i do all the way down touching the floor with my chin ;) so far my record is 5 =) check out my another video, i did quite low handstand push-ups there ;)

[BrendanGreaves111]

You have got talent, no doubt, All you need now is manners or restraint. We all are human and positive comments are always welcoming, I never mentioned my pressups were for beginners so I feel upset that you slandered them for no reason. Regards Brendan

[banditDK17]

Sorry, I didnt mean to offend u, i just highlited that good form is more important than quantity, and i said that's bad example for beginners simply because 80% of those who watched ur video were beginners, lots of em can't do a single press-up! ^^ Btw, where do u live in Yorkshire? Cuz, i live in England as well, West Yorkshire, Bradford ;)

[BrendanGreaves111]

You did offend me, I thought it was not needed. I am 10 miles from Bradford, I'm from Wakefield,

[banditDK17]

U can delete my comment if u want, i dont mind. We are here to express our opinions so i wouldnt be upset if somebody left bad comment. I have nothing to prove to others, i train for myself!

[BrendanGreaves111]

If I wanted to delete it I would have, I normally only delete porn messages, you just upset me because you made out that I was trying to teach poeple how to do pressups when I wasn't. I am happy with what I do, I do not post the rubbish "120 press ups in 60 seconds kind of vids" where they move their shoulders 120 times, If you feel you have to let of some steam, do it on the vids that really are bad, Me, I choose to keep my typing fingers in my pocket unless its going to be a comment of praise

[BarneyMickoura]

youre well on your way..keep training :)

[marcusbondi]

hey bandit that's awesome! really great work - u r so on it; keep training hard! it'll be cool to c yr impressive progress! cheers!

[banditDK17]

Hey marcus! Thx for ur opinion, its good to know that ur work is appretiated ^^ I'm now working on full handstand pushups,you have to touch the floor with your chin, so far i can do 3! Hope i get better soon.
