The handstand to hollow back press is a demonstration of extreme back flexibility and shoulder control. You press from a handstand down into a hollow back position, then press back up. It demands incredible shoulder and back mobility plus the strength to control the descent. You'll start with bridge work and shoulder mobility, progress to wall-assisted hollow back presses, then freestanding presses. This is an elite-level skill. Most athletes take 12-24 months of dedicated mobility work to achieve this press.
