Hello folks! How is form?

Adrian Theopold

If this is 'Bon Iver' in the background, interesting choice of music (at least for a workout ;)).

Regarding the exercise, from my point of view this looks rock solid if:

-feet together

-hands shoulder width apart

For my part this exercise is more about how stretched/warmed up my hip flexors and shoulders are and less a strength exercise, but maybe I'm doing it wrong...

 

Thomas Hanssen

Thanx for feedback Adrian

Bon iver is great for the stretch series, and not so intensive stuff:)

Hey Thomas,

Your body line looks good from what I see in the video. I think you’ll benefit more from this exercise if you were to elevate or shrug your shoulders as you reach your arms overhead.

Focus on creating as much body tension as you can by lengthening from your hands to your toes. This will transfer directly to improving your handstand line.

Thomas Hanssen

Okay thanx, will elevate

How long should i practice this one? could probably master it next week.

Mikey Cunanan

It should be an integral part of your handstand training, even after you’ve mastered he handstand. 

As long as you can hold 5x 30sec with good form, you can move on as early as next week.
