Your progress depends on your age, your lifestyle, your experience, your body - even your arm length. One centimeter changes a planche journey. It even goes back to your childhood. Active kid or passive kid, it still shows today. So fathers: keep your kids moving. You’re building their future right now. And stop comparing yourself to people on social media. Compare yourself only to yourself. Stay consistent. Stay disciplined. Follow the right path. You’ll get there
You can hold a twenty-second tuck planche, but you still can’t open to advanced tuck. The problem is often not strength. It’s understanding how to move your knees away from your chest without arching your back. Before you grab a band, do this: tuck planche with your feet assisting, minimum weight on the feet. Full scapula protraction. Posterior pelvic tilt. Move the knees out to ninety degrees, then close back. Don’t arch. Don’t lose protraction. When that feels easy - move to the band. This is one of the hardest steps in the planche journey. But the right direction gets you there. Comment ‘PLANCHE’ and I’ll send you the full framework.
