I think my favorite part of this latest phase of #ringHandstand and #ringHSPU training is that starting from a headstand offers more flexibility of progression than did kicking up into the top position, which did still require me to have the rings low enough to reach the ground with my fingertips.
Finally managed a couple fifteen second handstands on rings thanks to the tips in the video, here. Most of this I knew on some level, but the one tidbit that made all the difference is the mention of extending the fingertips to steady the rings when jumping into position.

Just setting PRs on some overhead work today -- #seatedPress triples with #BTNpress back-offs -- but then I'm starting in on the #ringHandstand or #ringHSPU negatives now that I'm proficient enough now on holding the handstand on rings (though gonna start out just trying to get full reps).

What a way to finish off this microcycle with the new protocol: finally got back to setting PRs on my #seatedPress; came within a rep of my best on #BTNpress; doubled my #ringHandstand hold time (to 30s) while also adding in a good full-RoM eccentric touching my nose to the mat below before dismount
