Some weks ago I posted that my younger DD (and the girls on her team) is expected to get her press handstand by the end of September. She has made good progress so far! She had her standing straddle but couldn't press up from a straddle L position to stand, although she could hold a straddle L for 30secs or more! But now she can press up completely to a stand and sometimes even higher!
I videotaped her and compared it to a video of older DD who can do several presses in a row. It looks completely the same the only thing younger DD can't do is lift her hips and butt up. So as she presses, her hips go higher and higher, but once she is in a standing position, her butt just doesn't go any higher!
If she stands, she can press up from there. So she is missing the part where you need to roll up your back but still have the hold the legs up...
If you look at this picture, on good days she comes close to this, but her back isn't that rolled up already.

Do you have any tips? Is she lacks this, which part of her body is too weak? Or is it an overall problem?
