Do you really have nothing better to do?
i can do that half splits to handstand thing :o from like a month of practicing planche every day, buti'm at a kind of plateau now :\ i'm stuck at regular planche and i'm tryin to work through gettin to straddle planche :\ ifa nyone has tips. and i can't do L-sits that well because my quads cramp up everytime i hold them too long :(, and my arms aren't long enough and my legs don't fit under my body :( x2

Its not your quads cramping its the hip flexors, my second favourite muscle. My arms are short. I started training with planches and levers but hit a plateau at
50 seconds at tuck planche.

Then i came agross that somewhere and stoped what i was doing to follow that book. Planches are near the end, one arm handstand hoping is the last thing in course 2 and second to last is the one arm planche.
At the end of the first course is L sit to handstand, and presses from raised platforms.
I recomend you follow the book, in the same kind of way people say walk before you run.

I can also go from an L-sit to an Handstand but it is not as clean as a gymnast does it
