Anthony Clyne Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hello everyone! I'm new to gymnastic bodies, I've just recently purchased The Foundation series and am slowly working through it. I'm contemplating buying the handstand series also but I have a few questions first. Also I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong section. I noticed there was only H1 released as of yet for purchase and I was wondering how far it takes you into learning the handstand and how long it should take to complete. also how many successive parts are there going to be in the handstand series? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro Mainente Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 From another post I've understood that 2 more handstand courses will be released. Btw the time you need to complete the H1 is paired with your actual level of shoulders mobility and strength. No one can predict how much time you need to improve, some elements need 1 months, other elements maybe 4-5 or 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Svensson Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Also, H1 will give you a 2 minute free handstand with perfect line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Clyne Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 Thanks for the reply, so am I right in saying that its the same setup as the F1 exercises? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Yes, it is the same setup. Without giving away too much info, there are 10+ PE's before SE's. Balance seems to be different than strength, in the sense that your body is going to need to get that proprieception , whereas strength you just adapt muscularly and keep progressing. It follows the same mastery templates, just with different times. It is impossible to say when you will get your handstand, because we don't know your prior level. It also has great wrist exercises. However, I highly suggest buying it! Mobility is great, and the handstand will help you as you get deeper into the Foundation Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afiya Zia Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I hate to jump onto someone else's thread, but seeing as the original question has been answered, I thought I might. How long is a combined H1/F1 session? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keilani Gutierrez Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 it takes me (a beginner) around 10-20 minutes to do a H1 session depending on set up, warm up if i need it or volume. that includes wrist stretches, wrist exercises and handstand specific work per H1 instructions. as for F1, it depends on the volume and if i do H1 on the same day. F1 will take me an hr + 10-35 min. i also stretch a bit afterwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afiya Zia Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Generally, my F1 with a warm-up, cool down and lower body work takes 80 mins max. So with H1, I can expect something closer to two hours I guess. Well, that's what weekends are for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzzank Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I don't want to open a new topic so I'll post my question here. Are there any wrist exercices such as wrist pushups, first knuckles pushups, etc. in H1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
