For those interested in learning the handstand, I've made a Handstand Progression Series. You can view the first video here: th-cam.com/video/CuewhSqejww/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching!
@@wiseguy9225 well, I guess I managed to forget about my goal? Is that an accomplishment? In all seriousness, 2020 destroyed all my motivations. Fingers crossed for 2021!
I love when i see athletes treating movement not as just movements, but all the philosophy that there is behind that, i'm excited to see more of that in future, and im not even a climbling athlete, keep the amazing work bro!
This is my favorite handstand video on TH-cam now. Amazing explanation and exposition of the principles applied. The biomechanics are really easy to see here. Brilliant.
Your explanation was really thorough and valuable. You really broke down the mechanics and gave a well rounded explanation for each moving part of a proper hand stand. Well done!
Being a huge fan of Michael Jackson, I'm very happy and satisfied when I saw the line: "Annie, are you okay?". You have great sense of humour and detail orientation. Keep up the good work!
I'm a handstand practitioner/hand-balancer... and WOW, this video was a GREAT breakdown/instructional (for noobs especially). Wonderful job: Clear, concise, simple, articulate but fully covered all the basic & necessary aspects and concepts... Good job
Every single video on youtube done by successful and respectable athletes for the handstand does not force us to "cheat" through it, but you do by showing those little details like the rope example or the shoulders on ears. I call those smart cheats. Well done. keep up!
Gold video. Thank you for your work. I love how you are guiding the viewer through your videos, and the way you use analogies and demonstrations. You have a beautiful, calm and precise way of presentation. Again, thanks, it's truly some ART that we are lucky to see here. Keep on enjoying.
This is one of the clearest videos that breaks down something I've felt quite complex. It's going to take awhile, but I might get it one day! Thank you!
I recall seeing your videos with 5-700 views but the quality and content are outstanding and consistent which surely is the magic ingredient for growing your channel. I hope you continue finding greater success by this model as it is a pleasure to watch such finely crafted and clear material for these complex subjects.
These videos are phenomenal. I've been doing body weight fitness at home for about 8 months now and will be starting my handstand journey today. I love love love how calm the explanations are as opposed to the brash, in your face style of the majority of fitness videos. Thank you so much for this content.
This is simply one of the best videos I have seen on TH-cam ever. But then again I have always wanted to master the handstand. Still, amazing documentary and should be watched by anyone that possesses energy that wants to train that gift.
I've watched a lot of handstand videos, but this one is absolutely the best one with all the movements broken down into simple graspable concepts. Thank you.
I started doing gymnastics a few months ago and have been working on my handstand for a while. It's definitely a skill that takes time to perfect, especially if you've never done anything like it before. More handstand videos would definitely be appreciated :D
I have been practicing handstands for some years now. I can hold a handstand pretty well, but I always felt that I was still missing some key components in order to make it solid and secure. This video made me really understand those issues, and how to work on them. Great job!
The explanation of the Tension part was very very good, the example with the jump-rope/staff, beautiful because simple and therefore easy to keep in mind and visualize
Your content is phenomenal. You describe so clearly and simple concepts that others struggle to. Thank you so much for these videos - more handstand content would be great! Maybe drills to build up to the strength of holding one in the first place? I struggle to gain the position from a static beginning for example, so understanding which muscle groups to train to lead up to the basic handstand would be great!
This tutorial is somehow mind penetrating (the order and pace of info along with the back ground music is just hypnotizing) it dives into my subconscious and pop up while practicing, for me its the best tutorial on youtube, thankyou!
Fantastic video. I’m months into learning handstand. It’s ridiculous how hard it has been for me! Sometimes I ca. Hold a good thirty second one, then the next time I totally fuck it up. I’m so inconsistent. I’ll keep trying and keep the ART in mind. Thanks!
[ Quax ] yeah just hold it as long as you can...once you can do a good thirty seconds you’re probably ready to move off the wall. As an intermediate step you can have your stomach against the wall and walk your hands in to get a better feel for the correct positioning. Then get off the wall and start trying. It will take a lot of practice and a lot of falling. Always warm your wrists up and stretch them before and after you practice. Good luck
[ Quax ] haha yeah. I’m finding that warming up by doing assisted handstand with stomach against the wall helps me a lot with performing unassisted handstands. It seems to warm up the mind/muscle connection. The past week I’ve had a few good ones. Held one unassisted for like thirty seconds!! One day we will both be that cool person holding handstands all day on the edge of a cliff. Hah.
[ Quax ] Lol. Yeah, it has been ridiculously long process for me too. I did start straight away with assisted ones. I feel like at the beginning I would get more blood rush than I do now. Idk what’s different but I don’t really notice that anymore. I’d make sure yourehydrated and maybe have enough iron in your system? You should also google pike pushups as that is a good exercise for warming up to handstand. Let me know when you make progress! I’m curious to hear how your journey goes. Good luck
By far the best tutorial video on explaining technique, principles on a given topic. Bravo on a job well done. Please continue sharing your knowledge and gift of teaching. I most definitely would love to see more videos like this.
Thanks a lot, this video is one of the best tutorials for the handstand. It is so deep and profound. I have been training for handstand for a while now and I have still a problem with balancing. I would appreciate more videos on this topic.
Awesome my friend. Great selection, great advices. I like how you present this information in calm way. I can tell that you are perfectionist cause all technique is crisp. Bravo.
A really good informative video! I mostly liked the slow talking & the editing. Ofc the order and the way in which you explained were also great ^^ A video on one arm handstand would be nice!
For the micro & macro adjustments w/ toes & hips, I was thinking about the Michael Jackson video, then I saw, “Annie are you ok?” in the top left corner. 😆 I love these little Easter eggs you leave for us! 🤙
Amazing video on handstand. I've been watching so many videos on handstand for quite long time and I must say this was the best video I've seen so far. The detail, the way you broke it down, background music, video detailing and quality, everything was amazing 👌👌 Keep up the good work. Btw being a calisthenics student I recently tried indoor rock climbing and got hooked into it and will definitely be continuing rock climbing with calisthenics in 2020 and onwards.
That's a great point by point way of explaining movement in climbing. Thanks. I don't want to say I've given up on handstands but I've certainly not practiced in a long time.
This tutorial is amazing, thank you so much From the little details to eloquent delivery, to the production and editing it's so streamlined and minimal but yet with such effective execution
I’ve never been able to do a handstand , always loosing my balance and always end in up a mess on the floor. This video has given me the motivation to try again and keep at it . If you plan to do anymore video about he handstand , the. I for one would greatly appreciate them . PS. Just subscribed to your channel for the excellent content 🤘🙏🤘🙏
@@aornelas Specifically, the Alien Ant Farm cover; check out the video and you'll get it. It took me a second but I got a really good laugh out of that reference.
Love the handstand videos. It would be really cool if you did some type of video on rings as I think they're a great training tool and are just very awesome overall to play with.
Subscribed! I think this is a GREAT video to teach even basic bio-mechanics, especially the hip shoulder prioritization for alignment! Thank you for sharing.
This video is wonderful, please make more like this one to learn the handstand, maybe one to learn how to fall while you learning how to balance, in my case I am still afraid if I am not next to the wall, thank you

Thanks for watching!
I'm starting to get really good at watching hand stand videos
i think i mastered that skill :)
😂😂😂😂
😂
We will have a competiton who watches better😅
lmao
I had such a spiritual calisthenics experience watching this
"being in balance means that we are constantly rebalancing"
that's some straight poetry right there 😂
I am a circus teacher. This video has knowledge and science within. Listen to it. Congratulations...
Thank you, that means a lot to me. I've always held a deep appreciation and respect for the circus arts!
More handstand stuff is welcome. I'm thinking about making it a long-ish-term goal for 2020.
Don't stop at the end of the year, make it a fitness goal for the decade!
so what have you accomplished?
@@wiseguy9225 well, I guess I managed to forget about my goal? Is that an accomplishment?
In all seriousness, 2020 destroyed all my motivations. Fingers crossed for 2021!
@@portentouslad5051 how's it going in '22?
So u did it?
This is a fabulous tutorial, perfectly described and demonstrated.
I love when i see athletes treating movement not as just movements, but all the philosophy that there is behind that, i'm excited to see more of that in future, and im not even a climbling athlete, keep the amazing work bro!
This is my favorite handstand video on TH-cam now. Amazing explanation and exposition of the principles applied. The biomechanics are really easy to see here. Brilliant.
As always, attention to detail and specific targeting of the most crucial elements fundamental to movement make these videos worth watching
Your explanation was really thorough and valuable. You really broke down the mechanics and gave a well rounded explanation for each moving part of a proper hand stand. Well done!
Most helpful, practical and detailed handstand video ive ever seen

Dude, this is fantastic, thank you! I actually feel confident to start working on handstands for the first time ever
I've held 12 sec and gave it up, now I'm back at like 5 sec, this video will help, thank you!
This is hands down the best handstand tutorial.

Nice Vid..inspiring..I find headstand as step ..also uses fingers/hands and core to balance.
For the micro & macro adjustments w/ toes & hips, I was thinking about the Michael Jackson video, then I saw, “Annie are you ok?” in the top left corner. 😆
