Technique
How to perform Straddle Planche
- Place your palms shoulder-width apart on the floor and keep your elbows straight.
- Spread your straight legs into a straddle and lean your shoulders forward beyond your hands.
- Push the floor away and spread your shoulder blades as you shift enough weight onto your hands to lift both feet.
- Hold your trunk and legs approximately horizontal without resting your knees on your arms or folding at the hips.
- Maintain the forward lean and steady hand pressure for the hold, then lower your feet under control.
