I'm so glad you're posting more videos like this often. I think you're one of the best calisthenics teachers out there as you treat training these skills as if you have a gymnastics background. A lot of calisthenics guys just focus on raw strength but you also focus on form and technique which is so important both for your joints and for the strength to be applicable to other skills. I'm training gymnastics right now and working on becoming the best athlete that I can be, but Slovenia is one of my favourite countries in the world and I'm hoping you're still training people in a year or 2 because it's been in my mind to reach out to you when I'm ready!
You gave some GREAT advice in this video!!! In seven years of CrossFit, no one taught me as much about how to work on my handstand as you did in just a few minutes. Thank you!!
thanks man for those fabulous tips... i used to watch your videos since i was 19 and now i am 26 and still watching your amazing videos and learning from you the best tips
Thanks a lot for detailed explanations and drills. I am new to channel but really helpful videos compared to other channels. Really gives nice goals for starters like me and encourages to build the basics which is the most important thing. Not like 5 min tutorials which teaches nothing but a click bait.
Hey Dominik. Awsome vid. Just one question, do u have to think about contracting abs and maintain posterior pelvic tilt every time u get into a handstand or it has become like an instinct?
this guy im following him now for 2 weeks his details in his explanation are incredible and fucking awesome gonna try it all and hope for the best u doing some good work dominik!
Watching this video on 25 November 2018 will try to learn atleast a 5 seconds hold till the end of the year. I am a absolute beginner and will try to update my progress if any lol
Just tried it yesterday for the first time i cant get chest to wall right now and can only hold it for 15 seconds at a 45 degree angle from the wall and can only do the easiest variation of the second exercise...lets see what progress i make
Day 3 i got a straight handstand on the wall..!!! It was fear of falling over that was holding me back not lack of strength.. But i can only hold it for 10 seconds and my core gives up so i am also gonna do some core work..
Very good video. I’m totally a beginner. I believe can do handstands with this tutorial. Thank you. It makes me feel like I just need technique. I don’t need to be super human. 👍

You really got to another level in these videos, really great improvement overall. Keep it up bro I am sure you will grow this chanell with this, genuine will to help, approach.
How about a super collab with Dominik Sky, Austin Dunham, FitnessFAQs, CalisthenicMovement, SaturnoMovement, AlKavadlo, SimonsterStrength and TappBrothers... that would be awesome, all the best
I've been training the handstand for almost 4 months now and am getting nowhere I tried everything(wrist balance, shoulder balance, feet...) every video but nothing helps. Every time I do free standing one I fall on my head (even using the cartwheel bail out) , or fall right back down.. is there anything else I can do ? Love your vids though
well clearly the problem is enough shoulder and scapular strength and stability. maybe try to go back a few steps and start spending more time in pike hold, elevated pike holds, back to wall handstands, with proper scapular position. you have tremendous patience, just a matter of the right exercises i suppose
On the chest to wall, which do you recommend: - Staying closer to the wall for less time (eg 30 seconds) ; or - Further from the wall and holding for more time (eg 60 seconds)
I've been practising handstands in my routine for 3 months now. I can do the 5x60 second holds on the wall, however when it comes to kicking up, I often finding my lower back arching into an anterior pelvic tilt as I kick up. It's as if my leading leg pulls my lower spine into an arch. Has anyone had this occur, and been able to fix it? I feel like this is the last barrier which prevents me from holding a handstand every try.
It's might be because of the lack of shoulder mobility. U can try the test of standing and doing posterior pelvic tilt then try to maintain that and raise your arm up (like a reverse handstand). If u can't raise fully then it's the problem with mobility. If that's not the case, try engage your core before kicking up. Hope that help :)
I think you meant posterior pelvic tilt, I can't picture your leading leg putting your spine into an arch the other way. If you go into posterior pelvic tilt, it may be a flexibility issue regarding your posterior chain (probably hamstrings)
2 years later What's your progress I swear if you don't reply like all the others I will track you down and eliminate irl Ok seriously just don't ingnore please
which is better assisted HSPU or tuck planch push ups and my goal Is clean hand stand and planch and both of these exercises work the shoulder and I want to which is better for both worlds
I keep getting bad wrist pains from trying to do handstands or even just press ups. Do you know how I can increase my wrist strength so they stop hurting so much?
I had the same problem and I was VERY desperate. do wrist exercises ( various things, just google it.) and focus more on increasing mobility/use handwraps. i know this is common advice but this is the true advice :D Good luck
Funny, I was just thinking I was gonna learn how to do a handstand over Christmas break then this showed up in recommended... (I hadn't even searched for anything about handstands before either...)
training the handstand for 5 months now, still cant hold it free stand.. I start against the wall and sometimes if i'm lucky get a 2-3 sec free stand, that's it.. It's frustrating the shit out of me
My problem is blood rushing to my head. Forget 15 seconds, if I get completely upside down I fell like my head will explode after 2 seconds (breathing normally, not struggling)
Do sets of 10seconds then... Do 10sets, then 15, then 20. Do it 2 times per week, then 4 times per week then 6 times per week... Then go for 15 or 20seconds and repeat the process... Everyone struggles in the beginning... EVERYONE!
Hey Dom, what happened with upper body basics and lower body bundles? weeks ago upper body was free and now it doesnt appear on your web, lower body neither
This video assumes everyone has the arm strength to hold their whole body weight and the core and leg strength to keep themselves balanced while upside down.
It's a handstand video. All those things you mentioned are required to perform one. Why are you even commenting if you're one of those people you're describing. If that's the case look for a video explaining how to work up to a handstand, not passive-aggressively comment on a video showing how to improve one.

I already got a clean handstand, but i'll definitely work on these kick up exercises!
2:33 omg my eyes just popped out of my head. WE LOVE YOU DOMINIK.

Thank you brother. I will follow this routine
Love your work man.
Dom, I wish I could have a home like you!!♥️❣️
What are the best ways of improving shoulder mobility?
Thank you! I'm going to start today.
I tried this today: closest I could get to the wall was a foot and half and could not handle more than 8 seconds. Getting down safely is very scary.
How about a super collab with Dominik Sky, Austin Dunham, FitnessFAQs, CalisthenicMovement, SaturnoMovement, AlKavadlo, SimonsterStrength and TappBrothers... that would be awesome, all the best

Great guidance Man🔥
“If you’re not perfectly flexible in your shoulders like me” somehow the most non-arrogant arrogant line on TH-cam!
True
i thought he meant he is not perfectly flexible in his shoulders
@@oscarriquelme6256 YES that's what he meant. He's saying he doesn't have perfect shoulder mobility.
I 100% believe he meant to convey that he ALSO does not have perfect flexibility in his shoulders. Love this dude.
You're my inspiration ! I Love you like A broo! Thank you very much!!
thank you Dominik 👍🏻
On the chest to wall, which do you recommend:
- Staying closer to the wall for less time (eg 30 seconds) ; or
- Further from the wall and holding for more time (eg 60 seconds)
I think the first One is Ok when U can hold 30 sec
Great tips!

Hi Dominik, let's show a lesson about standing on one arm and walking on arms.
Man ... I did it ... and I almost can do first time later ... so cool set .. works a lot
2 years later
What's your progress
I swear if you don't reply like all the others I will track you down and eliminate irl
Ok seriously just don't ingnore please
I love your training hall
which is better assisted HSPU or tuck planch push ups and my goal Is clean hand stand and planch and both of these exercises work the shoulder and I want to which is better for both worlds
Do basically keep doing this “everyday” and eventually I will get it and be able to hold on
Great video brother 👌🏼
Could you make a tutorial on Parkour and the other moves which you learn
I keep getting bad wrist pains from trying to do handstands or even just press ups. Do you know how I can increase my wrist strength so they stop hurting so much?
Search for rice bucket wrist training
Scrappy Guko Thank you!

Slowfall Thanks so much!
Wear glove
Doesnt superset in ubb have two exercises as one set and then rest?
Funny, I was just thinking I was gonna learn how to do a handstand over Christmas break then this showed up in recommended... (I hadn't even searched for anything about handstands before either...)

Love tht gym i want one also great video bro
The video from the link is unavailable.
Is there a problem if I do back to wall handstand ?
Why not the back to wall ?
Video is perfect thanks broo, but what if someone is scared to go overhead?
Do chest to wall at an angle and spend time in the position.
@@bollywoodrm yes
either try rolling forwards after u fall or moving sideways
Grt video....
SUPPORT GREAT JOB
how much rest between sets do you recommend?
Genius Absolut
Massa 👍👍👍👏👏
Hey Dominik will you make it available
to pay with Paypal? I know you sent en email saying you are working on that, but the offer is almost over :(
Perfect pair of pants to demonstrate glutes tightening... 4:33
LOL you fruit
Hm, I was always thinking that progression goes: chest to wall -> back to wall ...
My problem is blood rushing to my head. Forget 15 seconds, if I get completely upside down I fell like my head will explode after 2 seconds (breathing normally, not struggling)
Do sets of 10seconds then... Do 10sets, then 15, then 20. Do it 2 times per week, then 4 times per week then 6 times per week... Then go for 15 or 20seconds and repeat the process...
