Maybe I can get some help here.
I have some questions because I coach a girls group and don't have any deeper knowledge about that.
There are a ton of videos out there about how to get a straddle press but not how to train for more or even 10 in a row!
1) How do you increase your reps in straddle press handstands?
2) How many presses are required per week/day to achieve optimum strength increase?
3) Is pressing with ankle weights better or more reps?
4) Is it better to go until failure in a short amount of time or more like grease the groove? (so for example trying 50 presses and not focusing so much on form in less than 20 minutes or is it better to spread them over an hour but really good form)
5) Are other drills necessary like L-Sit, Straddle L etc.?
6) Is everybody who can do a good straddle press already able to learn 5 at age 6/7 and 10 at age 7/8/9/10?
8) If you are already able to perform 10 in a row, how do you make them not lose it?
9) If you train for 10 presses in a row, should you continue doing pike presses and V-Sit or focus on the straddle presses?
As you see, a lot of questions here. I would appreciate it so much if you had some advice!
PS: girls can do between 1-3 beautiful presses from Straddle Lever!
