This series is honestly the best handstand series on the internet . We are all really lucky that we are getting this kind of content for free . Just keep up the amazing content,man . Just did my first handstand on the grass for a whole of 4.5 seconds .
Akshat Mishra Congrats! 💪 That's awesome you got your first handstand! Always keep in mind that it's a work in progress. You have to focus on "locking it out" into that total body tension. Some days will be better than others. I find that sleep plays into it quite a bit (as weird as that sounds) because being rested is very important. Thanks for commending my handstand tutorial too 😊
EXCELLENT! I'm amazed of how much 4 videos can teach. Very good advices. I'm not much into calisthenics, but after watching this, I'm definitely subscribing
there is no way. i been trying to do handstands all my life cause i used to be able to walk and do them when i was younger. i been practicing everything in this video (the bails were easy cause i already knew those as an instinct) and i actually got back into it! im in total shock. it only took a couple days too. thanks for the help man
I got my first handstand 2 days after watching this video..I've been struggling for months. That hollow body tip did the trick. Thanks a million. Keep up the good work
I love this. Gave up before because I was trying to hold and then bail, rather than getting really used to bailing and then holding. A subtle difference that makes all the difference. Thank YOU!
This guy's tutorials work like a charm guys. Got from frogstand to a few seconds handstand in less than a month finally today. Same for his pull up totorial. I started at 0 pull ups (i m still a bit fat) to 4, training since the 4th of February. Just got my first 30" tuck lever too yesterday. My dude, i seriously can't thank you enough. I would have had no idea where to start, broke as I am, if it weren't for you. Your understanding of the progressions and the fact that you share your knowledge so freely is very admirable. I ve lost around 40kg of fat the past 5 years and i m still at 18% only now (lel). I was always fascinated by the muscle up, so i put my self the challenge to stop being a pansy about how heavy i am and how impossible it is, and start actually training with bodyweight instead of waiting to lose the hanging belly. 2 months ago, to me, the muscle up looked CG'ed. Now, it just looks kinda hard. Thank you
Unwavering Decipline wow, thanks for commending my tutorials :) That's great to hear you're doing so well in your fitness journey, and congrats on the awesome progress on handstand and pull ups! 👊 Do you mind if I possibly use your comment as a testimonial in the future? I've been collecting these positive comments for an opportunity to pimp my RUclips channel later on (if I ever need to).
Unwavering Discipline hey man, did you get muscle ups yet? 😊 I know it doesn't look like CGI anymore to you, but I'm hoping you're repping them out now. If not, I wanna help you get there!
Wow truly amazing video...I been failing for the past couple of months and can't balance it properly, but from time to time I'll be able to hold it for 20+ seconds. Then the next day I can't even do one for 3 seconds... I will give this a try tomorrow, I got a good feeling it will fix my issue! Thanks so much!
Omg ty for the tutorial I had gymnastic class today and I had to perform this there today and TBH I didn't know handstand but after that I saw this idea and did handstand I just cant thank u enough lol
This is a really good video! I used this technique 10months ago now i can hs 7-10 seconds paused!! .. however you have to have patience and be consistent in your training & dedication! If u dont have any of these, forget it, u NOT ready yet!! Hs is a fab skills once is archived! I 💪👍
Insane just watched all 4 tutorial videos. So informative, makes so much sense thank you for the amazing information and journey you have shared - brilliantly simple and makes so much sense. Keep up the work my dude ❤
Damn man your yt vids are gold! Rly good explanations, not too long, your voice is satisfying and I loved the fact that you carried much about the bail process and preventing us to hurt ourselves ^^ the 3 key words push, tilt and point were rly helpful I’m thankful I met your channel. Go beyond champ!
your tips are amazing. i am on part 3 . hand stand with wall. i really think i can do it. we are on lockdown now. so i got sufficient time to practice. if i nail this. i will try muscle ups
To summarize: Learn to bailout: Find out “HANG TIME” Learn how to balance: Warm-up > Forward, backward wrist extension and wrist flexion + SCAPULAR ELEVATION + POSTERIOR PELVIC TILT + LEG TENSION(with standing on your tippy-toes) First PUSH, Second TILT, Third POINT Then: >Engage the three cues while lying on the floor(it is like hollow body) >Chest wall handstand (kind of PUSH, TILT, POINT again) -->Go try handstand before “hang time” try to lock PUSH-TILT-POINT CUES PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE THANKS to Minus The Gym :D
Start kicking up by the wall. Even if you don’t get fully inverted yet, just practicing kick ups now is a good idea. Walking up the wall for chest-to-wall HS too. End of year is realistic if you get on the wall soon and really focus on the 3 cues: push (scapular elevation), tilt (PPT) and point (leg tension). Go for it!
I have been handstanding against a wall for seven years now, can do full handstand pushups but cant' last a second without the wall haha.. gonna try this out for sure
I'm so dumb, I'd been doing hand stands at the wall and so I skipped all the preparation and went straight for the free hand stand. But I went in with too much momentum leaving me no time to bail and just falling over at considerable speed. Thanks to my outstanding reflexes I got away with a minor abrasion on one of my knees but don't make the same mistake.
Some thoughts from someone who’s hitting 6-7 secs now.. - imagine a baby that learning to walk. It takes them about 12 months? It not intuitive for them to balance on their feet either despite having a heel. I see balancing on hands the same way-it’s a slow, difficult process that not intuitive. - bailing and balancing need to be instinctual. If you have to think too hard about it, you’re gonna fail. You need most of a handstand to be from muscle memory cause you have too many moving parts while executing the movement. - there’s no good transition to a handstand. Frog stand and headstand might help a little, but the gap between being able to perform those movements vs a handstand is enormous. Be prepared for a steep learning curve and a lot of failure.
I can do a head stand, head stand to straddle and side fake split. My balance is great for this. But a handstand I cannot do. :( i can handstand on a wall and stay there for ages but can't keep my balance without the wall.
This video is really good and helped me a lot, but even though I have a bit of the time where im standing on my hands, I don't fall forwards, my body just goes back again. Does someone have a tip?
Sinan B if you're falling back to your feet, pressing into the ground with your palms while bending slightly at the elbows can help. It takes practice but you'll eventually get a feel for it. Arching your back so your feet are in front of your head can also help regain balance, but I don't recommend arching because it's inefficient compared to the straight handstand.
Question, you think i can go from elbow lever to handstand? Because sometimes i notice i feel like.im going to high and my legs come up but i back down really fast due to fear
I've done the frog stand, the tripod headstand, the wallstand for more than 20 seconds, I started practicing this while filming me, I lock It out but I still can't balance for more than 3 or 4 seconds, what should I do, please answer me, i would be really thankful
Shannon Nieland don't worry, I can help :) Short answer: if you can hold a handstand against the wall for 20 seconds, you *probably* have the strength for a free standing handstand. Long answer: I say "probably" in my short answer because handstand is a full body exercise. It requires adequate strength in the wrists, forearms, shoulder girdle, core and thighs to really "lock it in" and hold it freestanding. So I recommend using my Learn The Handstand playlist on my channel. It will take you through all the steps to build the strength: frog stand (wrists, forearms, shoulders), then headstand (core, legs), then wall handstand (serratus) before trying it free standing. This is the playlist: goo.gl/RfzVsU
Its so hard to get a straight handstand for me, instead of a banana handstand..i don't really have the shoulder flexibility to get it straight so frustrating
Warm up your shoulders. 1) Lay on the ground face facing down, nose touching the floor, keeping the three elements he talks about (pushing the scapula upwards, engaging your abs and glutes and pointing your toes) . Hold a broom stick with your hands shoulder width apart straight forward and work on gradually elevating the stick higher and higher over your head. 2) Stand against the wall, hold a posterior pelvic tilt with raised scapula and try gradually getting your straight arms over your head as close to the wall without compromising the PPT. 3) For this one warm up your elbows and wrists as well. Start off in a face to wall handstand (keeping all three elements) where your palms are a palm away from the wall. Rest your legs and chest onto the wall while maintaining the position of your palms. You should notice a stretch in your shoulders. The further away your palms are from the wall the deeper the stretch.
This is the best handstand tutorial on the internet
Addy thanks man :) That's an awesome compliment
Sucks
You don't know videos of Igor voitenko. Look now!
Big fax

Thanks man I learned the wall handstand in 3 days and I'm progressing on the balance.... Love your vids nice and clear....
I love this. Gave up before because I was trying to hold and then bail, rather than getting really used to bailing and then holding. A subtle difference that makes all the difference. Thank YOU!
Thanks for the tips! I'm currently trying to learn a handstand in 1 month with no prior relevant background :)
Max Hertan wow, that's quite a challenge! I hope the video helps 😊👍

@@MinusTheGym sure dude. I also got some small clips of progress if you need them although i didnt start taking them until after the first month

THANKS to Minus The Gym :D
I'm in the headstand stage + some frogstand variations, mainly extending one leg into the air. Hope to here at most by the end of the year.

My problem is with the chest wall stand :D Super scared of that and how to get out of that... Maybe someday I'll manage!
Very useful video and I've been working on my handstand and this video helped me a lot ...Best handstand video ever 👍
When he said bail I tried
And I did a cartwheel
I keeped on doing cartwheels
Until....
I did a one handed cartwheel sooo yeh
Great video man
Thanks! I'm quite obsessed with handstands, so let me know if you have any questions. I'm always looking to help. And thanks for the sub :)
how cute! thank you.
+1 sub. 🤝🏻
3:20 "on your left...!"
How much time can u hold a handstand ???
What is the best time to train handstands. I have stomach issues.
This video is really good and helped me a lot, but even though I have a bit of the time where im standing on my hands, I don't fall forwards, my body just goes back again. Does someone have a tip?

You my dear legend bros at video starting when you see bald head white and with this shape what this remind you off
good job what was that i was not paying a tension and this is lonyè arvins daughter
0:49 Wait what!! I hold it for 2 minutes and i cant do 10 seconds 😂😂
I can hold a handstand against the wall for more than 15 seconds( maybe even 20) but I can't even do proper full ROM pike push ups! How can that be?
Teacher can I sits right here this girl behind me is cutting my hair
How can you tell if you’re strong enough to do a handstand? I would like to learn but I’m not confident that I have the strength!
Shannon Nieland don't worry, I can help :) Short answer: if you can hold a handstand against the wall for 20 seconds, you *probably* have the strength for a free standing handstand.

I clicked Like

Jayden Sin-Cuevas congrats! 😁 That's awesome news. Keep it up! 💪
I can do headstands and crow all day long but handstand without a wall remains elusive.
