Fun with Handstands

First off I would like to do a bit of playing with finding our center of balance upside down this week!

Getting better at your handstands has many facets,

  • finding your balance, 
  • having the strength to hold yourself up 
  • figuring out where you are upside down (spacial awareness)
Warm Up; Bike -Row or Run 3 min 

Then 2 sets of:
  • Inch worm walk outs feet drag in 5 reps
  • 10 varied shoulder dislocates
  • 30 sec each side scapula ball rolling
Wrist stretches and arm circles

Shaping:
  • Hollow holds- floor, wall facing and onto red blocks 15 sec each station
  • "T" up 
  • Wheel barrel walks with a friend 10 M up and back
The Handstand:

  • Kicking up onto a panel mat 3 reps x 3 sets
  • 20 sec holds on a wall  x 3 sets
  • Handstand pull away balance
Shifting your weight
  • Frog stand
  • on a box "T"
  • on a wall lowering to a mat or 2 -controlled!
HSPU- all levels

If a few are interested we can try a few Handstand walks.
