Just posting a few thoughts
After my failed attempts, I realized I will have to work on my triceps a bit more. Those machine shoulder presses have paid off far faster than I thought they would. After just three months into my training I am able to make it halfway up on both arms. My old shoulder injury from my time as a wrestler is giving me a bit of trouble, along with my left foot. My form is a bit off at the midway point as well.... I think. Thinking I may need to start moving my body towards the pressing arm as I push off, keeping everything close to generate more power and stability. Not exactly sure about it all..... But I will not attempt again until this weekend. I am not expecting to get it, but want to see if I have made any significant improvements during the week.
Need to be careful training triceps! I have avoided pull downs and have been using machines to isolate them better. Must not over train!
Training my upper chest is also a priority. Pushups are out of the question until I can figure a way around my foot. Handstand pushups are the best option right now outside of seated machine presses.
May work on my grip strength a bit more.
My goal is to knockout the one arm handstand pushup within the next three months.
