I reached my goal yesterday of doing a 30s+ handstand. I went from 20 seconds directly to 35 seconds! I usually felt that I could correct better with my fingers, but now I've become pretty good at that! It felt so much more solid as well. With the 15-20 second handstand I was walking (or rather stumling / falling) on my hands a lot to balance, but now I can stay very still mostly. Was wondering what would be best to do next. This video gave me some good ideas. Thanks!
i just unlocked the no wall hand stand, i can't balance it yet, the max i can if i'm lucky is 2 seconds (not much i'know but i'm happy). For a while i was struggling (mostly afraid of falling on my back) but i said fuck it and went for it without a wall and i fell on my back, but after 3 or 4 times i managed to get into position and then fall by moving my hand to the front so my body fell to the side and on my feet and not on my back. I'now need to control my balance but i think it will go fast, and then i'll be happy. PS: Its so fucking tiring i do 3 or 4 tries and then i need to take a 30 sec brake, and repeat. And at the end of the session my right thigh hurts because when i fall i use my right leg to break. And the other day (third day since i can do this) i did a 40-50 min session (with some longer breaks) and the next day (yesterday) my forearms were shaking and were so tired and sore (but the good sore, not the i hurt my self), they were sore in the same way they were after my first rock climbing experience (i went once, i want to return but to far from where i live).
hello, you see, I have a 45-50 handstand "you recommend that the time continues to increase or, on the contrary, that it happens to more difficult progressions
If consistency in freestanding is the biggest current issue from someone, what would you recommend? I.e. when starting against the wall and making balance, 10-15 seconds off the wall is pretty consistent (2 or 3 out of 4 attempts). When on the floor doing freestanding attempts, it's more like 2 or 3 single holds out of every four training sessions getting to 10 sec. Any tips on bridging that gap?
Justin Barrett work on balance from face to wall and kick ups to wall to get the feeling of “stacking up” while pushing trough your traps to get the balance
@@Simon-gx1wf I do so every session. I'm just not seeing it translate into freestanding. I'm sure time will help a lot, I just feel like I've plateau'd for quite a while now.
@@BodyweightWarrior I've recently started incorporating it into my training (one set at the end of each training), with the idea that it may help long one arm handstand sets
i find it very hard to do handstand on paralettes than on the floor
What a timing. Asked myself exactly that question today. Thank you so much!

amazing 😍😍😍
Airflares next!
What do you think how long it takes for a press to handstand , when I can do a descent 20 sec handstand
1 year-ish of consistent training.
I have developed a special Kung-Fu technique that only does crotch shots. I bet Tom Merrick can't defend against that.
For me I can hold a stag handstand longer than a regular handstand
your handstand pushup is so clean ; and yes its more extreem for us , i can feel you
May i ask what pants you are wearing? Seems to be very stretchy. Thx
simon says they’re from Ardour :)
Do you have any tips of fixing Deadlift mobility?
Just Try RDLs
You move on to a 1 arm airflare.
Speaking of basics, do you know your max handstand hold time? How often do you test it?
Its around 90s, I don't really train for that and my endurance sucks

Who said I can balance a handstand?
Great to see your beautiful face again, sans mustache!
So basically after learning the handstand, you start gay movements with legs. Ok
