 998, yep, come on Tim. 999, come on, come on, come on, come on. Come on. 1,000. Oh, sorry I didn't see you there. It's a deep burn. Tim's just done literally 1,000 dips. No, but. Minus 997. But we are working hard on redefining our impossible, and Tim, for one, has been loving training at home in the beautiful weather in this lovely little garden setting. They're really inspired by you guys out there, absolutely smashing it and redefining impossible. He's given us a little bit of renewed motivation to keep pushing forwards, and thoroughly enjoying, as Jaco says, just being able to train at home, the convenience, lose time going backwards and forwards to the gym, enjoying outdoors, and also, David, increasing productivity. A little bit of a. What's it, a super set? In between rests, here it is. Take care of the garden. Don't get my water in. Sometimes I make the lawn, open letters, full of benefits. How long rest have I got left now? That way to go. Yeah, you're next thousand. I've got another thousand. Better get on, Dave. Send them off. So, there's lots of you at home have also been redefining your impossible, and here is a section of this month's graduates. Bye. Over to the boys in the studio. So, you lads look like you're enjoying yourself outside in the sun, where we're having to do the hard yards in the filming studio, a.k.a. my kitchen. I'm baking here, actually, in a direct sunshine. That's filled with you. So, well, one thing was you asking for the top five. There's too many. There was one of just so it had to be a top six. And yeah, I think you're gonna like this. There's a couple. There's one and we can't wait to see your expression. But it's one, I think that you haven't, maybe I'll be wrong, but I think you haven't seen. Roll it. Roll the tape. I just thought we'd put a little bit of your bob along. Walk and pause. There we go. Right. Now then. This one's been getting big wrap. If you've been watching our stuff on Instagram recently, you would have seen this. School of Telecent's virtual classroom member. This out. The control. Not a single drop in shoulder or elbow position. That presses out straight up. Holding all day. Finish. We've shared a video, not that long ago, where she pushed out and then didn't have the control of the legs over the top. And that has been smoothed out with some work against the ball that was recommended in the virtual classroom. And there you go. She's redefined her impossible. Amazing work on that one, Clare. It's absolutely inspiring to see, Jack. We do not agree. Right. Let's get this one going. Thomas. Can I get it now? If you can listen. Good. Rep two. Squeeze it out. Snuck in. First two muscle-ups. Nice. Unsure of the language and what was being said, I was assuming it was a nice bit of encouragement and he was saying, just make sure you look after your shoulders, mate, when you go over the bar. Yeah, that is one thing. You're looking good. It's that first bit. I'll show you a reverse. That's like super clean. But it's this little bit here that we just want to be careful. It's a great job to get up on the bar. You can see there that's going back in reverse. But we really got to make sure we want to look after the shoulders because if we do too much of these in these positions, it just doesn't work out too well for the shoulder joint. But the first couple of reps are never going to be the cleanest in the world. So you've got them in the bag. You can move forwards. Great work. That breaks down the mental barrier of, like, you haven't been able to get over the bar. But then what we need to make sure we're doing is we're looking after the shoulder and not putting ourselves into potentially difficult positions. Next up, let's just enjoy the last little bit of this. I thought he was going to go for a third there. He's got confidence. Ruben. So he's so close. Just pause it. He's so close to getting his full frog to handstand and this piece in the middle, the inverted chair and being able to control the feet going out of it. We talk to people a lot of the time. If you look at his position there, which is great alignment. And we talk an awful lot about going back to the wall. Like, don't be afraid to not to use the wall and gradually get away from it or use it, but just use it as little amount as possible. And this was a great example for him of that one step towards redefining is impossible, where he's going to go through, and if you go and play it through, you can press play. And he'll, you'll see him trying to change and get up to that full position. He needs just a little dab, little dab, and then getting away, little dab. Just use it, not trying to rely on it, but it's there to catch him. And then he ultimately gets into a great shape and holds it and controls down. So when you think about being able to go from that, once you've got the strength to get into that inverted chair position, we've now got the ability to, there's a lot of things going on. We're opening up at the hip, at the knee, and the feet are going to go everywhere, but he's now working with a little help from the wall, gradually using it less and less to be able to understand and control where his feet are in relation to the rest of his body. And that is ultimately what he needs to do if you're going to nail that handstand. Yeah, we often talk to people about this, about once you get to a stage like, like rumors that he might want to feel like you want to move away from the wall, practice in free space. We always encourage people to go back to the wall and make it a central part of your training program until you've actually really got the confidence to be able to start to stick a couple of seconds really freestanding. Because it allows you to build up time on task. From a skill acquisition perspective, the wall just allows you to make those corrections and allows you to stay in that position for longer. If you're practicing in free space, as soon as you start to topple, you're gone and you've got to reset it. So your cumulative time on attention for any given set on handstand practice is way, way, way bigger when you're using the wall. It just needs you to manage your ego a little bit to put the work in to get there. And then just to spend the time working on that progression at that stage. Can you get in that sense of reward? Whereas when you fall over all the time in free standing space, sometimes it can be, if it's not going well, it could be a little bit, get you down a little bit when it's not, when you're not feeling it. So you get that sense of reward, you get that sense of feeling like, okay, I'm actually doing this thing. The thing that's hard about handstand, as well as like it's costly from an energy perspective to get back into a handstand. Like you end up using loads of energy just to get back to a point where you were before, whereas a wall, because that's hard to just enjoy it. Was that number three? I was number three. I should put numbers on it, shouldn't I? Here we go. Have you seen this one? She's seen a fit. So again, another virtual classroom student and- This girl absolutely kills it when it comes to training. And how, like, look at this, all day, all day, all day, all day. Is this confident, eh? Yeah, and she said, the one that the message came with, she said around the fact that, you know, she's been working hard in the virtual classroom, following the programs and got to a point where, and it's something that you've talked about before, she was like, I've got to the point now with my handstand that I'm happy enough that this is ready for graduation. And for me, like, she's there for absolutely eight, like, it doesn't have to be that long. For someone else, it's going to be at a stand, but I love that concept of you're in control of deciding when you're happy with your movement. And that is how, the right way around it should be, you should be, you're the one that's in control of whether you think you're happy with what you're doing. And some of the control, the adjustments that she makes is that's what a lot of us, when we're first starting out, we're missing and we want to try and rush that process. And to make, if we go back to just a smidge where you see the fingers and the shoulders, just like, it looks like she's going to lose it one way and then brings it back and lose the other. And that is, that takes time to develop, but that can't just happen all of a sudden. But when you do get that, when you've got the opportunity, you've got the two, you've got the two sort of, what's the word I'm looking for? Like adjustments that, if you feel you're going too far over the top, you know how to adjust it back. And then if they want, when they start coming backwards down towards the floor, you know how to adjust them back towards the middle. When you have those two things and you start to play around with those two things in harmony, that's when you start to balance and you can't rush that. The last thing I like is it's blatantly clear. Even though it's just shadows are casting over her face, there is a big smile. Yeah, 100%. Which I'm enjoying. She looks pretty to herself. If you like smiles, you're going to like number five and six, I think. Sorry? Yeah, there's some celebrations. Ben, James, and again, virtual classroom, students. Muscle up. I don't know. I've got a false grip of gliss. Good eyes, Tim. These are the red rings you wanted, aren't they? I want red straps. Oh, solid. Sunnies. Flatten the back out. Flatten the back, makes an adjustment in the lever position. One gets the one, gets the two, puts the hammer down, go on. Oh, nice. Jack, come on. Jack, come on the edit. That's looking good. Is that last, that real nice little bit of where we're just going to see if we can spin our way back? That shape here, this is the real crux of this. And to get that point where we can hold it for a little bit longer, you've done all the right stuff. So you get in here, you've got to go from that position where you've sort of still got a little bit of that spinal flexion, just up in here, you can see a curve through. And what he's got to do is shift that weight forwards a little bit there, so it's just offsetting it. So you can all of a sudden see the head goes forward, distributing more weight on the side of the base of support on the rings. So you've got that nice, strong position and then from there, that's creating that anchor, that position there, throws it out. We could probably just try and get a little bit more tension through the back of the body, just point the toes towards you to try and help lengthen things out, which will help. I think one sort of, if we're being critical, one thing that then happens is as the other leg gets extended out, so more weight coming down at that far end, that the hip drops down from being in line in the shoulder where it was to a lower position. And so when we're trying to, you know, we just talked about you, but you deciding when, you know, and look how happy it was, well, that's the first time it's actually managed to hold some sort of shape there in his back lever. And now it's around, there is probably a bit of a job of just as you get to cement that down, thinking about how do I maintain a slightly higher hip position? So we're not sort of putting too much stress down, just purely at the, yeah, down through that chain and that the hip can stay up and come up with in line with the shoulder, maintaining that nice flat back position. Yeah, good job. All right, nice on the celebration. Let's just enjoy that again for a second. Here he is, boys, he's popped his head inside to say hello to Nate, he's like, I'll have a brew. Thanks, your two sugars. Right, Paul. Hey ho. Yeah, he's actually, again, he's a virtual customer, but he's been in the workshop as well. Yes. What he does well. You're gonna like this, wait for the celebration. The little, the little hop. Skipping a jump. He's an interesting one because I had this conversation with another students earlier last week. And do we want to straighten the arms before we straighten the legs or do you straighten the legs before you straighten the arms? Well, the answer is you can do both. Paul's given a great example here of straightening the legs before you straighten the arms. If you watch me do a handstand on this movement, I'll straighten my arms before I straighten the legs. It's just different horses for courses. You can still achieve the same outcome. The difference is as he comes up, he actually finds in this angle here, the body's finding quite a strong place from a shoulder perspective. So it's actually dropping in, right, strong here. And then we're gonna start to use that strength. And then you're gonna see here is the leg straight and the arms are gonna go at the same time. So maybe we use a little bit of momentum as the legs moving upwards, which is gonna help to straighten the arms. Just takes a little bit of the weight off or reduces the load a little bit just from an assistance perspective, but we end up getting out into a nice shape. And then he works hard at that top end just to try and stabilize it. The one thing that I think is of benefit to think about when you're doing these movements is if you do wanna put the effort in to get a straight arm, is in that top end position, you will find that if you control this line here with the shoulders, you've then got more time to think about where the legs are going. When you're in that slump position, and I say slump with arms bent, you have to work really hard to try and maintain this angle here with the shoulders to keep the balance. Legs go up and all of a sudden you've gotta try and stabilize the shoulder joint and you've gotta stabilize the feet. So you've got two things which is trying to control. Just adds a load onto the new system. Yeah, and we'd probably say with the knees bent and the feet closer down towards the floor in that tuck position, when you're trying to have to control your balance, if he's trying to press out here, then there's less to deal with up in the sky there. If there's legs to stay down, watch it straighten out. The other thing that it does really well with because it's tough is compared to Claire at the beginning where that shoulder angle didn't change really. First takes those knees off. We get that little drop and sink down there and what happens for a lot of us, if that, if we start going down, there's no way we're going back up. So it does a great job strength-wise to be able to then actually get up from there and potentially why the body knows that the legs are gonna help with that. Some of it comes around to that. But if he wants to, Paul wants to keep, handstands for us are always an evolution. They're a development. It might start with a kick up or it starts with a frog stand. It develops into different things. If he wants to, as Tim said, work a bit more on his balance and he's gonna benefit from having that straight around position. He wants to work on the pressing strength and the control, working on being able to take those knees off at the beginning and not drop down at all. And you'll see, if you look at the two videos between his and Claire you'll see the difference of the two. But all of that is wrapped up on advice, tips, help for Paul, but also for you watching that you may have similar issues going on with your frog to handstand. It's all wrapped up in the fact that that's the first time he's actually managed to get up and hold it. And that is something to be celebrated. And you saw the key thing about it, the best thing about all of it is when he comes down, he is pumped. And if you are pumped like that, you're gonna go back to the gym and you're wherever you train, you're gonna carry on your training. You're gonna carry on your progress. Yeah, don't be too hard on yourselves. It's easy for us to sit here and sort of pick points that we would say you could improve, but when you've done something like a handstand and you've got there and held it for the first time, take that as a massive win and then decide what you wanna do with it. That might be enough. You might never do anything with it again. Yeah, but that's up to you. We're just trying to give you some ideas to help hopefully make these things a little bit easier. And just to make the process, if you wanna go and do something else and allow me a handstand, for example, the back knee, whatever it might be, the more sort of efficiency you've got in the movement, the less energy costly it is, and therefore you can do more. So just tear you up for future success and future impossible to redefine. Yeah, and that's exactly, as it says on the screen underneath school cast, and it's redefine your impossible. And that is what this is about. And this video in particular is about celebrating those people that have redefined their impossible or done a step along that process. And hopefully you watching get the inspiration from seeing them, as well as hopefully some tips and advice that you might also, so you might be struggling with that's gonna help you to redefine yours. So if you've got a video on Ascenders, if you've graduated, if you've got to a point where you've done something which you're happy with, which you think is ready for a graduation, please send it to us. You can drop it to us on the email, or you can send it to us direct on Instagram via DM, email address, Jaco. Or Facebook. Yep, email is david at schoolcast.com, nice and easy, that's my first name, Jaco. And even if you're just a step along the way and you just need some help and some advice and you're like, this isn't my graduation video, but I just want, I'm doing this, I need a little bit of help. Then feel free to send us those and we were always here to help you with your progress along the way. If you really feel like you want a full program to follow, and you want that sort of week by week, step by step, way through to some of these movements and want to join the community of people inside the virtual classroom, then you can get, we've got a few different options now actually. We've got the beginners membership which is only 10 pound a month. And we've got the full membership which is to absolutely everything in there, which is 25, but you've got a seven day free trial of that. So you can try it for a week and see if it is right for you. Everything you need and proving to put in tons of people get success. Yeah. There is nothing else to say until next week. Month. Next month. Class dismissed.
