supposedly that is not a hard trick, but ten that was from a gymnast not a regular human...adding a push up and that must be hard on the core...good find

If your body is in good shape, it's just a question of endurance and training your body's CNS to be able hold that position.

I suppose you would gradually practice holding other planche positions until you can move onto the planche pushup position. It's impressive to see, but it's not going to help a boxer out.

While on the topic of push ups, I have added a lot more clap push ups to my regime. The thinking is that they help build fast twitch muscle response...therefore helping increase handspeed. Thoughts?

I think you mean "regimen".

There's no problem as long as you concentrate on technique and speed, and avoid doing them when your muscles are fatigued. It won't transform you into a fast-twitch muscle bazooka but it helps.

I actually run a whole 3rd world country, and make all of my underlings do that stuff. We`re still building our army. (wow, I spend too much time in the hidden forums )

Rossboxing/rosstraining has lots of this type of stuff. They're supposed to be great for explosiveness.

Yea, that is basically why I added them. Hoping to improve both explosiveness and hand speed. I think I have gone as far as I want with strength training for now, and just wish to maintain. So the next logical step is improving other facets. I tried some of the push ups you started this post on, and I can say with certainly...gymnastics is not in my future haha.
