The Power Monkey Podcast


May 10, 2023

We are taking it back to another movement focused episode. This time, we are discussing one of the newest movements introduced at the CrossFit Games this past year: The Wall Facing Strict Handstand Push Up.

We talk about good technique surrounding the movement as well as how to build a solid foundation here. Dave Durante also throws out there what he believes would be the ideal competition standard for this specific movement.

Most importantly, Dave stresses why this movement is important to practice, even for those not intending to ever compete. Finally, Dave gives a prediction of where he believes competition is headed specifically as it pertains to the Handstand Push-Up.
