It frustrated me how long I spent my time on the wide handstand. No one said to me that it's not the optimal way. The moment I switched to normal hands placement, I progressed much faster, because my alignment was already decent but the wide handstand was making it hard for me.
Honestly going from wide to shoulder width or even a bit narrower as well as hands facing forward was one of the best tips for HS balance I got from you! It instantly added a few seconds in balance!
Its all about effort and consistency, started training at a young age, can freely walk on my feet now and even one leg feels comfortable. Planng on publishing the progress of my journey sometime soon!
Thank you Tom! I was decent with handstands and was able to get solid 20sec holds. My hand position was very wide. When I tried the narrowe version it became so easy! I would not need to use as much force, and it became much less strength related.
Excellent content as always. I normally have my index finger pointing forward. With the middle finger forward does that have more carry over to the oah?
This was pretty helpful! I was wondering if you could make a video about the positioning of arms/shoulders. Do they have to be externally or internally rotated? thank you Tom! PS Love watching your videos.
So you have been chasing the one arm handstand for a long time, now. But it seems to me, that you did it, even if those were just microholds. So what would you consider a real achivement? 5-10 sec hold or more? Thanks.
Steven Lim, strengthen wrists with isolated exercise such as rolling up a weight tied with rope to horizontal bar, climbing hand over hand up a rope, free hanging from one hand (gripped) , put a weight on end of long stick and use as a type of lever action (kind of like a sword) in various ways to strengthen wrists.
I struggle a lot while trying to do the handstand bc I am a really weak person. Should I strengthen my arms before learning the handstand? Or is it a matter of technique??
Paula Alóndiga definetley also strength. But if you follow his training system you will acquire the strength needed for a regular handstand pretty fast, thereafter, it will come down to your technique

@@beales1987 the land of America, thanks!
nice 200k subs
Did my first 15 sec handstand hold, without wall assistance, few days ago after watching some of your videos. Thank you!
i clicked the like button with my index finger facing directly forward and elbows locked with core engaged and held it for 30 seconds .
great form!

What if i struggle with legstands?
Legstands are extremely advanced. Hear it takes years to perfect

@@scythe2051 I’m so strong that I can do no legstand.
@@kiranmcbanana6350 Yeah, I've recently progressed to Fly ability as well! Keep it up Goku!
@@scythe2051 it's definitely gonna be on the Amazon best seller's list
The distance elbow - index finger is golden rule when using parellettes. Thanks for the tip Tom!

Congrats to 200k! Enjoy your Videos a lot, it's like leaning back and having someone explaining life to you, dk.
Thanks Tom! Going to apply this to the next session.
Hell yeah man! One day I’ll get there!

Excellent content as always. I normally have my index finger pointing forward. With the middle finger forward does that have more carry over to the oah?

10s on each side before I can say that I can do a one arm. Maybe by the end of the year :)
9 comments on a video that has not been uploaded for any length of time and there you go, one dislike. Smh
there's always one...
My left side is much weaker than my right and usually fail side ways when doing the wall handstand what do you suggest I do? Thanks you.
Any advice for beginners that find their wrists get too sore when attempting handstands?

wrist stretches before and between sets. Also use blocks or parallettes.

Pike handstands, then pike handstand from box/step, then handstands against the wall.
Could you do a video on SLAP shoulder
get a scan and see a good physio. SLAP tears are very individual. Best of luck :)
