Developing the Handstand With Camille Leblanc-Bazinet

- A bumper plate is a simple tool with which to get an athlete to feel the proper body position needed for a handstand, says CrossFit Level 1 Seminar Staff member Camille Leblanc-Bazinet.
With a bumper plate held overhead, the athlete will learn to squeeze his butt and bring down the rib cage with the abs, eliminating the excessive lower-back arch often seen in inverted athletes.
"I really like this drill just for that, just to understand how to ... position their body and which muscles should be working," Leblanc-Bazinet says as her husband, fellow Level 1 Seminar Staff member Dave Lipson, demonstrates at the CrossFit Inc. gym in Scotts Valley, Calif.
Next, she has Lipson do a half wall walk and hold the body at a 45-degree angle to the floor. In this position, the athlete learns how to press into the floor, creating an active position characterized by straight elbows and midline stability.
Afterward, it's time to try wall-facing handstands with only the toes touching the wall. Eventually, Leblanc-Bazinet will ask the athlete to remove his toes from the wall to find balance in the strong support position.
"That way you really make your athletes work with their brain," Leblanc-Bazinet says.

Camille's french accent is so cute, I'm glad she won the games, she deserved it!
Reppin' Canada good!
The way she talks is so cute.
Love Camille's accent
She's clearly from Quebec :)
in Québec we are well known to have the most beautiful women in the world
So when are you going to hook it up Laurent Baril? :p
Laurent Baril I've never thought of that. i think places like Brazil, the Philippines, Spain, Colombia are more well-known for beautiful ladies.
This makes me want to work on handstands. It's probably just Camille though
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing.
I will absolutely try this! Thank you
Very convenient. I'm in a college Gymnastics class now, and have been working on hand stand holds and such so I can prepare to progress fast. The more input the better :)
Those tips were spot on.
I love this couple!
I'm going to try this plate hold in class.
Great video! Love her to pieces!
AWESOME tips!!! THANK YOU!!
superb tutition. basic and clear.
Great tip will keep practicing !!
Camille is so great. This is gong to be tough for me, but i am gonna give it a try.
Will be very helpful.. thank you so much!!
These are great tips and address my fear of going right into a handstand!
the first 2 exercise is the most useful ones for me
Thanks, very informative. Would you suggest Bear crawling to help build the strength for hand stand?
Dave Lipson is a BOSS
This helped. Weak at gymnastics..thanks Camille.
that LEGS
Thanks, some good advice.
No, but seriously...this was super helpful
Lookin good!!
Полезно!
Thanks.
I gotta try this. Actually i do handstand, but nothing is perfect... But Camille's legs :)
I am in love
I think it's very important to also teach how to bail from a handstand attempt gone south. You can easily break your wrist by going over or hurt your back or your head if you don't know how to land
Why why why why you could break the floor too!? OMG Ahhhhh oh no!
I love you, camille
All good and well demonstraing the correct positioning, but what about if peoples shoulders are mobile enough and they have to give up there back which breaks form, what are some things to help with that?

Improve mobility, THEN do the movement. If your lack of mobility prevents you from performing the movement correctly, don't do it. Incorrect movement leads to injury.
She's so perfect.
akalet (athlete) I love the accent
Wow camille.... Well done.. Jist like that..
do you train handstands with their heads out?
I can see who really wears the pants in that relationship hahah
She is sooooo cute. Plus amazing crossfiter :)
I love her

Oui Oui
I Love Camille Leblanc, Because my TwinFlame exactly look like Her 💕
Universite de Sherbrooke! Represent!
Chris Hinshaw Hiding in the background :D
nice, universite de sherbrooke!!!!
What's the functional carryover of this in real life?
💕
Smart..
"not just try to fill that sticky point in where it feels good................."
Ugh.
You also forgot to tell us about our finger positions during the stand. That part always confuses me. I'm not sure whether I should collapse my hand to one unit or extend my fingers as much as possible. Especially with the thumb!!
your hand should be open but relaxed, like you were waving to someone. and with this spread of the fingers you should attempt to grab the ground (where your first knuckles are there will be an arch and your palm + tips of fingers will dig into the ground)
It's time for you to step aside Lipson
my pull out game would be weak with her or I wouldnt pull out at all
Hahahahaha
+Divi Alcoverde Wouldn't pull out.. would keep pumping until the cows came home.
how do i learn this? i don't have walls
LOL
I PR'd for you today Camille
Work with your brain...I felt personally attacked
Boy I could listen to her read the telephone book
Handstands are terrifying.
Acklete?
"Find that sticky point where it feels good"...yes, Camille, please help me find that.
Красивая=)
damn it camille I was sure you were going to won the crossfit games
OK you totally forgot to mention that his head should be facing his hands. It's not done the way he did it at the end, it's done the way she did it in the beginning.
I struggled a lot with the head position thing. Doing it incorrectly may injure your neck
is it wrong to do an arched back handstand?
I mean the way my friends tell me is to crunch your lower back and I did that and it helped me but some ppl just go into a straight line so it depends on which kind of technique you like so
either perfectly straight body or a little straight( just crunch your lower back with your ass)
+Beast bulk mine is very less straight
It helps to be 1 meter 50 :)
I'm not really a big fan of her. But somehow I hope she'll come back in 2017 and kick but at the games. Will be tough though.

This girl has the hair of Leblanc and the legs of Camille (League of Legends). So coincidence.
She is married guys and he does CrossFit as well.
Where is this world going? We ended up with crossfitters explaning us the handstand technique...
+Thor Kris She actually was a gymnast before crossfit...so its a former gymnast explaining handstand technique
nicolas ilijic Im relieved now. We are saved after all.
+Thor Kris still gonna hate for no reason
nicolas ilijic I dont think i follow.
+nicolas ilijic She was a high school gymnast, not an elite gymnast, so...
Yeah... You can do with me whatever you want babe
Anyone who does crossfit is an athlete?
those quads are the size of tree trunks!
do you guys think camiles legs can kill someone if she wrapped them around someones neck?
+Joseph Kony Yea like from GoldenEye
1995

Cutie McBooty
I'm f'in jealous of her legs, and I'm a guy.
WHy they are horrid. No tone or definition just blobs.
I honestly love Camille, but how can she lift weights with those nails smh
her nails are painted, but they're short...
Isn’t that a strict handstand LOL
Level 1 semminar staff member? what is this now? a cult?
