The foot on the wall should start to feel light by now. Bring one leg off the wall, point the toes to the ceiling, squeezing the glute (buttcheek) of that leg. Assume the same set up as the wall handstand (the further from the wall, the harder this exercise will be). Using the fingertips and the palm of your hand to control where your bodyweight is. This is done through the centre of the hand. This exercise will help us understand our weight disruption a lot more. Note - If someone was to take a picture of you from the side and draw a line through your ankles, knees, hips, shoulders and ears, they would all be in one straight line. Knees locked out and toes pointed to the sky. Turn your armpits out as far as possible (should feel a squeeze in your upper back). Try to push your hands as far away from your shoulders as possible. Hands as close to the wall as possible (the closer to the wall the harder it is). Make your fingers as wide apart as you can. Begin with your back facing the wall (you will walk up the wall, backwards). So that when we come away from the wall we are not trying to swing our legs to achieve balance but rather using our wrists. These are going to help us maintain that balance. Once against the wall, we really want to put our attention to our wrists. Requirement: 30s minimum before moving on. Make sure to have an even pressure under forearms, wrists and head. Start in the tuck position and then extend legs to the ceiling. Make a triangle with your head and elbows. This exercise progresses on the headstand by making the base of support smaller, thereby increasing the difficulty to execute it. Smashing four aim free#
Now that you have a few weeks under your belt, I want to introduce you to the more advanced levels, peaking at that coveted 'Boss Level' where we take on the Bowser of the Handstand World - the free handstand. Remember that consistency is the key here to enhancing our overall static and dynamic kinesthesia (movement) (Low, 2011). Take a look back at the first blog post to remind yourself of the first four levels and how they work: So there are no excuses for having not gotten the practice in over the past few weeks. If you are a member of our Online Gym, then you should already be two weeks into the May Zoom Classes, Relative Strength programme and Movement & Mobility, which are focusing on handstand technique. It requires time and consistency to develop. Recapping on the Foundation LevelsĪs I mentioned in Part 1, the handstand is a skill rather than a strength exercise. In the real-world, we need to build up our skills through consistent practice.

Unlike in the computer games, we can't just enter in a secret code to unlock new levels or skip ahead with additional powers.

Over a two part series my aim is to challenge the community of FFS to learn how to handstand during lockdown.įraming it as a real-life version of a computer game, I want you to reach the boss level of a free handstand.
