Learning to press handstand can be a frustrating journey. Looking effortless for some and feel near impossible to others. Unfortunately, there isn’t an easy answer to unlocking the press because so many variables are at play. Fortunately, we can manipulate those variables and make a press more mechanically advantageous, and therefore much easier.
The full Handstand Toolkit Includes:
100+ in-depth tutorials (like this one)
25+ programs
The Handstand Toolkit Skill Tree
100+ video exercise library
Self-assessments
Individualised coaching
And more

3:49 when you had a bad day and you finally get to go to sleep
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
where on earth is this being filmed, so nice
Tegallalang, Bali, Indonesia
Bali Indonesia 🇮🇩❤️
I saw the steps and I was like
"Banaue rice terraces?"
The finest of green screens 😅
Of course Bali first thing I thought of
With the quality and depth of explanation of these videos you guys can dominate the market, awesome work!
Hey Mathew, your content is amazing bro, keep it up!
Very detailed..I really liked how you involved the anatomy of the movements needed.
Incredible content! Subscribed after your video about your one arm journey. Can't wait to see and learn more.
Perfect video, good information and beautiful visuals
Great video. Lots of knowledge in both this one and the one arm handstand one. Super super useful.
Cheers buddy, I'm glad you found value.
p.s. more to come
fantastic video, I'm so glad i found your channel, the information is concise and very well informed. I very much look forward to seeing more from you. GREAT JOB!
Thank you so much! I came for the publicity in Instagram, I'm glad for that, this video is gold! Thank you so much, greetings from Mexico
Super location. Nice to see Simon with you. And, as always, terrific breakdown of the movement with cues and great graphics of the movement physics.
Incredible content. Following for sure.
Very informative and beautifully edited. Looking forward to the next video 🖒
Extremely helpful!! Thank god I came across this!
Sir I a impressed by your skills keep going. Keep updating us and keep teaching us
This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on handstands! Thanks for explaining how it all works in such great detail! Makes much more sense now!
Thank you for this! I thought it was all in the core and arms. There is is still hope for me!
This is literally gold! I got my straddle press before I've seen this video and I had to learn all of this the hard way... This really nails down everything there is to know! I think one of the trickiest part for me was to pass from shoulder leaning forward in the bottom to shoulders stacked on the hands when you reach the straddle handstand
Just got introduced to your channel. The quality of videos are great. Explanations on anatomy, the why's and how's are crystal clear and in depth. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and keep on going.
Great stuff! And great skills! Working on my press myself :)
Thank you so much for this incredible tutorial! I have been trying to press for a while with no success ( I have been able to do 1 min freestanding for a while), but after watching this video I got a solid slow press within an hour!
Best tutorial ever ! Thanks !
Best PTHS video I’ve seen yet. 👌🏼👊🏼
Where is the part two? 🤔 And can you please make a very detailed tutorial on how to do a roundoff to really get off that ground? Please make more videos more often. I watch sooooo many tutorials and none of them are nearly as good as yours!! 😍
Thank Matt 👏🏻👍🤝🙏🏻 great tutorial
I learned that people are "just like ants, really". Amazing video, I love this analytical approach. You are a truly great trainer!
Wow, this is a top quality video, subscribed!
Very very good tutorial bro 💪 thank’s from France 🇫🇷
Awesome explanations!
God level details. Love it
Could you please do one about how to hold a handstand longer?
You are amazing at handstands
CZcams video for that is in the works.
(p.s. there's 10 free videos in the Handstand Toolkit that covers everything from zero to one arm already)
@@Matthewismith and where can we find them please Matthew?
That was super helpful. I found out, that I dont lean forward enough...so I will start to build strengh there 👍🏼
Awesome video, I'm subscribed now🤗
U made this look so easy
Again realz good video, thank you
awesome vid!
Very helpfull. Thanks.
Nice, love the physics
You deserve my infinite likes, i'm very grateful. :D
You are very creative 💪💪❤️
بهترین اموزشی که دیدم 😍😍
The location 😱😍
Make the video on presshandstand from ground
Very inspiring
Thank you! I finally did it, thanks to you!
Awesome! Nice work 🤙
amazing video!
Hi
So thanks 💐 very good and completely
Thank you 👌❤💜
Dude your voice soothing.
👍
Awesome video 💪💪 teachnic 👏👏
Thank you! I love this video, it's so informative and also makes me feel like lounging in The Lord of the Rings
Great stuff, but only four videos on this channel. Shame. Would like to see a tuck handstand progression or something like that.
Top! Video for handstand line
Supervideo THANKS 😀
I love how you have so much lean tissue packed onto your narrow frame. A great look.
Forgive my previous comment all meant in fun of course but I do have a question that is related to something I am doing. Your video production is amazing- is this something that you have learned how to do your self? Or is it done by a semi pro or professional? Costs involved?
Yay!! 🥳
What software do you use to create the overlay of your center of mass and the alignment of your handstand? It’s beautifully done.
Thanks.....
So hard....
your channel is ghold, matthewismith. Thanks
You brought up active flexibility so can you please make a video on how to do a controlled side kick that can be lifted vertically 180 degrees?
Can you do a video breaking down the elements of a normal 2 arm handstand. From zero to inverted
Cool🤘🤘
Can you please do an explanation on the wrists, and the method to properly engage the wrists and train them to do handstands
Question: Which specific muscles are used in the back during the press ? So, which muscles are responsible for not falling over when leaning forward?
Specifically in the back? In that case, namely the upper fibres of the trapezius and both rhomboids major and minor (predominantly scap elevation). There's a surprising amount of anterior involved too from upper pec major to coracobrachialis, so not just the back (mainly in regards to shoulder flexion).
Con subtítulos en español llegarías a muchísima más gente. Un saludo
You should post another video dude!!!
Super
U are awesome
Did you manage to do lots of core exercises during your one arm handstand?
Great video. Thank you for the content. I wonder: which app or tool do you use to make the lines on the video? I'm looking for an app or tool to help me during alignement practice. Thank you in advance!
We use the entire creative cloud suite... Very much overkill for your purposes unfortunately.
I found the video very useful
Which muscle is used to bring the legs up in Press handstand? How do we train for that movement.
Training the press depends on your individual weak link (I have no idea what's limiting you).
I cover how to approach training for the press in detail in the Handstand Toolkit (link in description).
Please make a video for Beginners and how they should advance ahead.
We've been adding work to the free part of the Handstand Toolkit that covers this. Link in description.
can i start to learn the handstand press although i can not very well balance a free handstand (without wall) ?
Ở đâu đồng xanh đẹp quá vậy 😀
Where is the green field so beautiful??
TOP
I cannot get the legs off the ground. Are there any preliminary drills U can do? Sitting with wide legs and raising them is an effort too.
I think i had the power before but i was not realizing the mechanics of this whole thing. I was stuck years ago only to handstand and now after two dy after watching the video i make this move without efforts.
Great explanation with biomechanics! If one isnt using Simon's technique can it techincally be called a "press" ? Press where one is pressing from the shoulders and lifting/coming down as opposed to the easier techinique of mostly balancing using hip flexors to tuck the legs close?
Simon indeed needs to counter extra torque but it isnt as shown in torque illustration, I believe. Downward Torque is acting on simon from his center of mass which is in line with the hands in the torso ( but not in his scapula) to the distance of the end of simons feet. To maintain his balance he leans forward but also generate a counter upward torque with distance from center of mass to his head. Please correct me if i am wrong Matthew. Thanks
Yeah I think you're misunderstanding slightly here. It's a simplified diagram for sure as the counter torque of his head etc is minor and can be subtracted from the legs (but doesn't really change it much). Which way do you think he is falling? Clearly towards the side of the legs. He's not suddenly going to flip over when in the planche position. The sum of the torque is on one side. That is the direction he is fighting. The same applies to the closer in straddle press. In this case it is more subtle with the upper back over, but again, super marginal and the sum is on one side. It is definitely a press using the same mechanics just different leverages. They both use a similar motor recruitment pattern, just with very different levels of difficulty. They are both pressing.
@@Matthewismith thank you for taking this up.
Where's the place where you shot this video at? It's gorgeous 😍
Tegallalang, Bali, Indonesia
Bro please do mechanics of hold handstand longer
Go green :)
Que lastima que no se esté subtitulado al español saludos desde argentina 🇦🇷
How do you reduce arching in handstand if you have the shoulder mobility
If you have the shoulder mobility it's likely 1 or a combination of:
1. Lacking the strength at end range. You might have the passive flexibility but maybe lack the active strength to use it and hold the position.
2. Coordination -> a straight line can be a surprisingly technical position to learn. Sometimes it needs different cues to get there.
To further point 2, I recommend getting at least a 40s handstand (preferably longer) before worrying about getting the 'perfect' line. As long as it's not super bendy, a slight banana shape is fine (from a functional point of view).
@@Matthewismith I have got a handstand 40 to 50 seconds with very little arch what should I do
Can I use this as a lower back exercise?
No, that's not the limiting factor for this movement.
Can you make a video for sitting presses?? My feet always end up too far in front of me and I'm not able to roll my hips up
Just to clarify, you mean a stalder press like I quickly demo near the end of the video? Or something else?
matthewismith what you demonstrated, yes a stalder
😃👍👍💪👍👍
where is this
They are in Cambodia?
I don't know if you will see this but here goes, I would really like to be able to handstand I've been doing the wall trick and I can hold for a minute but I'm afraid to try it without the wall can you help me out?
Hey,
On my website you can access 10 free videos that cover some of the fundamentals for learning to handstand. I'd recommend starting there. We also provide options for online coaching and support if you're serious about learning this properly. All the details can be found in the link in description.
@@Matthewismith alright thank you sorry I couldn't get back to you right away I had classes all-day
MR. GOLDMINE
Its actually easy it took me only a month
Where is part 2?
Srilanka ???
Hi Pal, where are you from? 💐💐💐💐💐
great physique
tell us about your strength-trainings
Ur place feel like our place (kerala), god's own country.
Which is this place
Where are places.
Are you in Vietnam?
This was filmed in Indonesia
omg, is anyone here mainly for the scenery
