Strict Handstand Pushup 4

Alright, you've made it up in level 4 and now we want to increase the range of motion with a deficit handstand pushup. In this level we'll focus on just the negative movement.

1) Place a set of parellets, or boxes so that you can get the head down.

2) Kick up to the wall so that you're an a handstand on your apparatus.

3) Come down with control, and get your head underneath the bar.

4) Step down.

If that feels good, you can try to press yourself back up. If you cannot press yourself back no, don't worry about it. It takes a while, but keep practicing and building and you'll get there.
