In this episode, I share my opinion on how much core strength is needed for handstands. Whether drills like hollow body or hanging leg raises help.

See you in the next video!
It’s all about the shoulders! What helped you most when learning to handstand?
Totally agree with you.
Falling on my face lol
The thing that helped learn the Handstand is doing the Handstand lmso the total time u spend in ur Hands is the most important thing in short IF U WANT TO LEARN THE HANDSTAND PRACTICE ALOT OF HANDSTAND
"Create balance, dont find it!"
Whatever video you said this in.
And this video you comparing standing on feet vs hands seems to make a few smaller lights clicking
Learnt to walk when I was a child and now learnt to stand still with hands . Learning about wrist conditioning and stuff
Dunno why the crumpling to the floor sent me 😆 😂 🤣
0:37 me after every leg day
🤣🤣
😂
Ahahahaha funny
100%
lmao i c u :0
0:37 Holy crap, that caughtt me offguard :D
This is extremely helpful, thanks for making this video! I’ve been training handstand for a bit, and this helps me understand it more thoroughly.
that's extremely odd! I've had that question of "Do You Need Core Strength For Handstands?" lingering in my noggin for about a week now and here you are delivering a video on that exact question wtf hahah thank you Tom!!
2021 and no gym shark rant? Im disappointed Tom.. Jokes aside stay safe and healthy!!! Thank you for your videos
Where do we begin...
@@BodyweightWarrior that is a problem indeed too many people are getting swayed by wrong information and expectations. Just saw an advert on insta gram for a 30 day ab program " science based" . also watching people present bodyweight movements and exercises to the general public without proper form and technique possible causing harm. Also thanks again your videos have helped me a lot and my parents! currently doing my BSC but inspired by you and Daniel planning to do either sports science or physiotherapy!! cheers
Stronger shoulders, but also I think some strength on the fingers can help a lot to mantain the balance
Good job as always Tom.
LMAO when you get up from the chair! ahahaah
Your videos have such MKBHD vibe but fitness
It is very important to know which muscles it is that you should be working/feeling during a given exercise. Shoulders are very important to handstands.
Thank you, this was very helpful! I find the tension created in the wrists the worst part...
This video explains so much that I wasn't understanding before: maintaining tension on the front of the body explains how pulling in the ribs and rotating the shoulders helps to support the whole body unit in handstand. Quite enlightening, thanks!
It is important when youre beginner "Especially tall guys 6 feet and over" Consciously tightening your core " mostly lower abs imo" as much as possible RIGHT BEFORE the handstand can greatly keep you from losing balance.
I thought the crumpling up was for real for a few seconds 🤣🤣😂 Wasn't expecting that at all, Awesome vid !!👍
0:36 Me after I won the lottery
*falls in rich*
@@BodyweightWarrior haha always been a huge admirer. Please do a tour in nyc!!!
That clip is *immaculate*
What a difference! The yard looks great! Well done Tom! Working on core today.
Tom, maybe the next video is about Back Lever(Supinated) please?🙏🙌
This video is exactly what I need right know, thank you.🙏💯
How much shoulder strength do we need? Would you suggest a test or a benchmark to check if we have enough shoulder strength?
Im quite Lucky i Never had this Problem...
I was doing gymnastics for a couple of years when i was 8 so i was Always able to do a Handstand;)
The Explanations mate😂😂😂
You are so cut, it's incredible!
instructions unclear
i'm in pile on floor
plz explain
I watched this video because I always get compliments on my core strength if I'm showing someone my handstand. I've always wondered if core strength actually played a part.
Hey Tom, thank you for your helpful videos! Would you be interested in sharing a music playlist with us? I'm curious to know what you listen to during workouts since the music you select for your videos is always on point :)
Thanks love for all you do xx
Great one!! As always 👏🏼
Love your videos man!
Most people should understand that handstand don't require much strength at all. It's all about balance, body awareness and mobility. And all the strength you really need to achieve it comes with that last factor "mobility" which doesn't mean flexibility.
Thank you 🙏
Perfect
Great video! 🔥🔥
I think some type of core strength is. I also think it is why you don't have that straight of a line and why your straight lines are still butt balances and rib flares. You are not really stacked and when you aren't really stacked and relaxed it is probably not super wise to give advice about what you need or don't need for good and proper straight line handstands.
I think a lot of this debate has to do with one's definition of the core. Many people say core when they're really only talking about the abdominals.
So much is required to perform this move well , I’m going to the pub. Damn,forgot it’s closed 😂
Training handstand I had some cracking in my elbow and pain afterwards...could you suggest some elbow warm up or preventing exercise?
Well said
At the moment I’m doing pike push up and frog stand. Is that good for getting general shoulder strength as well as stabilization?
It is
Well, I can hold a five minute headstand, but only a ten second handstand, so I think that past a certain point more core strength isn't really going to help you, but there is surely some involved in stabilization.
Quick question, should I be actively elevating my shoulders? Or should my shoulders be more in a neutral position?
Actively elevating!
Good video. I tried doing the GMB handstand module several years back and got very frustrated by the weeks of core week it was having me do before i got into even practicing a handstand against a wall.
Agree but I think core strength is definitely necessary when doing presses, flags and other various movements.
I can do a handstand. And I tried getting stronger by doing a handsatnd on the wall. But at 30 seconds or so my right elbow hurts.
So you don’t need to brace your core like a deadlift eg? You mention to pull belly in… I was worried that wasn’t safe - Sorry I’m tryna learn handstands and new!
🤔 very insightful. I’ll give it a try.
Let’s go:)
Truly inspiring! you're one of the calisthenics athletes don't got me interested into doing calisthenics. I started last year and never want to stop. #monkeybargym
Interesting topic and information! I guess HSPU are more core-demanding - since you have to be in a more angled position while performing the movement. There perhaps it would be helpful having decent core strength, before practicing it?
I have a weak right shoulder with an impingement in my thoracic on that side but my left side is naturally weaker than my right! Should I continue to focus on ohp with a barbell or just isolation for each until I'm able to manage the same weight on each side? It's a real niggle in my exercise format!
How far should you tuck? What reference points you use? If i do feet to butt i can still elongate the knees. But (trying) to get the knees as close to the abs as possible doesn’t mean my feet are tucked towards the butt.
Awesome content! 🙂 I'm standing the straight handstand and in my opinion the core strength also needed. Because the Handstand with shoulder strength but without core or lower back strength people starting arched back. I have seen that people who have low core strength, they can't do correct hollow body hold, because them lower back don't touched to the ground.
Do you agree that the straight Handstand required shoulder strength, mobility and core strength?
If you want correct body alignment check your joint mobility.
As I tried to explain in this video. Arch back isn’t a result of a weak core, it’s due to the shoulder angle. If you stack a handstand the core is very relaxed as there is really no force acting to push it (gravity works down)
The only thing hollow body drills will do for you is teaching you how it feels to have a posterior pelvic tilt. All you need for straight handstand is active shoulder flexion flexibility, basic body awareness and, of course, balance
If you hold a straight handstand and take deeep belly breaths (which require abs relaxing) you'll see that nothing changes. The same happens if you do it on your feet. Relaxing core wont send you into a banana footstand
I just saw Nile Wilson saying pretty much the opposite in Mike Thurstons video lmao, I definitely agree with Tom though, it's a bit like when people say that front lever is a core exercise
In relation to gymnastics then this might differ. Handstand in gymnastics is a transition move for tumbling, on bars / rings etc. You would need a strong core to help with the kipping / flipping to keep the body solid and transfer force. Handbalancing is very static in comparison
@@BodyweightWarrior ah I see your point, there's definitely room for misunderstanding though
I can straddle planche but not handstand, is it just a matter of drilling stability?
How about role of glutes and activation in the legs for stability and increasing the length of hold time?
Hi Bro💪🏻😁
What would you suggest to do to get stronger shoulders.? So that I can start to do handstands.
why do you use a board when handstanding ?
Definitely you need core strength
How does your neck feels after you handstand?
Does it improve posture?
just started and can do 5 second handstand
How you train your core?
What's the move at 1 minute 35? I'd be very happy if could do that. I guess looks like in cludes a half planche on the way to handstand.
The stalder press. I would class it as a prerequisite for straddle Planche. About the same difficulty as a tuck planche press
Shouldn't we be practicing posterior pelvic tilting though? While on the handstand achieving PPT just by will is quite difficult i find, so other easier body positions is probably helping me but I'm not completely sure
Pulling belly button in = PPT. It will be hard if you can’t probably open your shoulders. Closed shoulders cause shortening in the lower back and anterior pelvic tilt
@@BodyweightWarrior i think i know on what to spend more time on. Thanks a lot!
I was watching your video about when the best time to stretch is and I was wondering what you’d suggest for someone who trains first thing in the morning. Could I still do flexibility after the workout?
Even if it's not the 'optimum' time to stretch you'll still benefit from stretching. A workout will raise your heart rate and likely be a good warm up anyway.
My only recommendation would be to stretch the muscles that you didn't work out. For example, on the day I do chest and triceps, I'd stretch for middle, or front splits, and then on the days I train legs, I'd stretch my shoulders and thoracic flexibility.
@@csn2887 thank you so much!:)
Is core strength important when learning the one arm handstand?
a tiny bit more but it's still shoulders
I crumbled. Can't handstand confirmed.

If your like me I faceplant the floor 🤣
