After mastering the basics of the handstand push-up, the range of motion can be increased by elevating the hands and allowing the head to pass below them. This can and should be approached incrementally until the athlete has developed the capacity to lower and return from a position where the shoulders are in line with the hands.

Intermediate Scale, 16:02 (PR).
Same scale as last time. Front squats were pretty easy – unbroken – could try 185 next time. Strict HSPUs tough – first 2 rounds unbroken, then a lot of 3-2. Some singles at the end.
