At the School of Calisthenics, we know that more often than not the thing standing between us and redefining our impossible is the simple fact that we are just not strong enough. So when you want to build strength and get superhuman strong, it's a sensible starting point to go and find one of the strongest people in the world!
Hence why we are so delighted to have strongman, Mark Bell, on the podcast to talk about getting superhuman strong!
This was an incredible interview, hope you enjoy it.

![Frog to HANDSTAND Transition HELP! [Banded] // School of Calisthenics](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Fi9ykunof3k/mqdefault.jpg "Frog to HANDSTAND Transition HELP! [Banded] // School of Calisthenics
The transition from the frogstand into the handstand can be the most tricky and frustrating step! The stepping stone is the tuck handstand or as we like to call it the Stevenson Chair!. It requires pushing strength from the shoulders and triceps but also the control to manage the rotation as we take the hips and rotate them to stack on top of the shoulder and hands.
To help with both the strength and the control the band assistance tool or progression is one that we love to use with student to not only help develop the strength but when set up correctly as in the video it help guide the movement and provide some stability and control to the hips.
Hope it help? Let us know or if you have any questions put them in the comments.
