Question about wall handstand

Hi, In the 30 second wall handstand it lists the number of reps and sets. I’m confused...for example, in PE7 it says four sets, should I be doing four sets of 30 second wall handstands or should I be doing four sets of 24seconds? Also, is this staying away from the wall as much as possible  or staying connected to the wall?

5 sets of 30 seconds is the mastery standard. If your workout schedule shows 4 x 24s do 4 sets of 24 seconds. 

This is a wall handstand, so use the wall for balance. You are working on strength, endurance, and your line. Balance will come later. 

Oh good to know! I’ve been accidentally overachieving:).  Thank you.

When in a wall handstand, it's helpful to use the wall more as a guide than for support. The goal is to feel your weight centered directly over the center of your palm, using the wall as a light assist.

The most efficient way to do so is to press strongly through your shoulders with straight arms. imagine trying to squeeze your ears tight with your shoulders. Maintain a tight hollow core and extend all the way up to the toes.

Thank you so much. I’m glad I’ve been doing just that.
