Handstand Fitness

😱 Does your back arch when you kick up Back facing the wall?

😞 It’s quite difficult to get your back to stop arching once you’re on the wall.

😃 This drill will help you find balance in your hands by pushing shoulders tall, slight posterior tilt and leaning the shoulders over the hands to “peel” your feet off the wall.

💪 Happy Training!

Your Core works in a handstand but only to hold your shape.

Your shoulders do most of the work!

The tension you feel in your core may be coming from arching and feeling a stretch. It’s not that your core is weak.

Question: How much tension does your core have when you stand?

Answer: Just enough!

Don’t overly squeeze your core, push your shoulders to your ears and Push the earth away to feel stronger and balance longer.

Happy training!
