Women drills for cast HS

[lisiflex]

I have not started learning cast handstands yet but I will be starting in about 3-4 months. Is there anything I can do at home or in the gym to strengthen the "right" muscles that will help me to get hit the handstand faster once I start learning?

So far, I can do about 10 pike push-ups, I can hold a tuck planche for 30secs, I can do a standing straddle press handstand (almost from sitting) and I can do several (maybe 6 or 7) pike presses in a row against the wall.

Every help appreciated

That's probably fine for a straddle cast HS.

Parallel bar swing to HS, build this up eventually and have a coach spot this.

HS Leglifts either free standing or against a wall. Start off with headstand and/or against wall and build up to bent arm HS against the wall progressively.

Reverse Leg lift to Locust on a vault table or beam or pommel horse.
