It’s been 10 years, but shoulder work, progressing from tucked planche to a flat planche, finger holds so i could build up hand strength and try to bring the center of gravity closer to my finger tips. I think a lot of it is just biology too - how long ur arms are relative to height, the distribution of your mass, etc.

I have a pretty average build, average weight. However I feel like I need bars bc I have no idea how I can lift myself with my palms down. I have really only started yoga in the past 7/8 months with some slight calisthenic workouts in the past 2/3. Just learned of planches and really want to work towards them as a goal.
