Handstand tutorial

Image
Today I would teach you a handstand! Step 1: Do a handstand next to a wall Stand one meter from the wall and do a step , put your hands close to the wall and kick your bad leg up until you get to the wall then pull your good leg to the wall too. Try to be as close to the wall as you can and look at your hands. Step 2: Work on your body position Keep your legs straight and together, tighten your stomach and back, look at your hands, lock your elbows. Step 3: Try it without the wall When you feel ready try a handstand without a wall. You can have a spotter to help you balance, if you don't have a spotter and you feel like tou are falling forwards then you sould just roll out. Unfortunately this skill takes time to learn so don't be disappointed if you do not succeed. Hope I helped you! See you next time, bye!
