Picking the proper progression for gymnastic movements is very important. Based on the athlete's strengths and weaknesses we need to use the right challenge to increase strength. We need to practice repetition of the movement or a movement pattern that we will be learning, but at the same time we need to keep creating challenge!
There are hundreds of progressions that you can use to make this happen, these are some simple ones for handstand pushups that do not require much equipment. When it says a rep count (ie. 5 reps) that means you do all of them in a row, anything less than that is scaling it back, and you should remain at that progression until all the reps can be done in a row.
If you are at Zero HSPU’s right now, don’t expect this to be a couple weeks, this is going to take you some time, don’t be afraid to spend up to a month on each progression IF you are still finding challenge.
