Some comparisons between different varieties. None of them very good yet. Trying to get from tuck to straddle.

  • Hey man how much did you weight at the time?

  • at that time 82 KG.

    I'm about 85 KG now, much harder with just a bit more weight on me.

  • no way? I'm guessing you're 6'4-6'5

  • no I'm not that tall (183cm)

  • I be he can do planche pushups now, it has been almost a year.

  • nope, got injured from over training the planche last year. Didn't get back to it properly but still practice them. I think I had certain strength imbalances that caused the injuries, that and overdoing it on the planche progressions (several times a day at that time). When I start over, I'm going to focus on getting push/pull structure (probably deadlifting more) and core strength up before venturing off on the planche trail again.

  • If straddle is too hard, try tucked to advanced tucked. In the advanced tucked position your legs are still bent, but you straighten you back as much as possible. Your knees should be pointing to the ground.

    Good job on your progress so far!

  • Really good work, good luck with your goals.

  • was it your shoulders? I got plagued with shoulder injuries when training planch. Decided the same as you, become stronger before trying it.

  • thanks, for showing I'm not alone, trying to mater that
