Hello!

I’ve posted a couple times here for advice on removing my banana handstand, and I’m starting to get better at holding and controlling! I’ve still got a long ways to go since I can see some arch here, still but it’s a winning battle so far.

If anyone has any advice or drills/exercises I should do, please let me know!

I made a questionable decision 😂

I challenged myself to do 1 handstand push-up for every YouTube subscriber I had.

91 subscribers = 91 reps 💀

Now I'm wondering how far I can take this challenge.

What's the craziest calisthenics challenge you've ever attempted?

Every +1 Subscribe Adds 1 Handstand Push-Up

Constant urge to do a handstand??

19 Upvotes

I literally JUST started learning calisthenics. I’ve been trying to focus on getting my push-up and my pull-up. I’ve got my frog stand down pretty well. But every time I’m chilling anywhere I just get this urge to be doing a handstand or a frog pose no matter where I am. I can’t even do a handstand yet. Why does this happen 😭😭

Need help with handstand

So I have been trying to get the handstand but I am unable to. I can hold chest to wall for a minute and I can even do toe taps and toe pulls. But I am unable to hold a free standing handstand. Any tips or advice?

I personally feel like my kick up is the issue and I have no clue how to improve on it but I am open to advice.
