  • whoa! you can put your legs up pretty high in the straddle position. Can you do a sitting straddle press to handstand? 

  • i like i like i love it i can't wait to do this

    YES~!

  • what are you talking about? firstly he mentions that the torso must be held as still as possible and you gotta bring the legs to your chest, and not see-saw all over. secondly, strengthening your hip flexors are important, and is totally different from strengthening your hip extensors, which are also important and which is not the point of this video

  • Nice. never thought of that!

  • makes it look so easy.

  • If this exercise is done perfectly all of your weight could be on your hands. The farther you lean forward the more difficult and more effective it is.

  • and the Psoas also.

  • Just because a lot of people use it, doesn't make it good, just like shoulder press behind the head. Most people are lacking in the glutes compared to the hip flexors. THanks for your response.

  • il check that out thanks.

    alot of gymnasts i know use this exercize though and they have pretty strong hip flexors

  • This is silly, first you must keep the torso in a static state. Try hip flexion standing with one foot on a box 90 degrees. Look at Mike Boyles approach. This example shows an incorrect look at training.
