hate to say it but not a very good handstand tutorial. you taught most of the basics wrong and missed some of the most important aspects from a gymnastics point of view. A handstand leasd to a handspring and into front tumbling this video wont help with that at all. You did teach how to dance in handstand pretty well and have good strength
@mexispice when you say a good number of handstand pushups is 20, do you mean with or without wall support, i can only do about 10 without wall support, is that enough?
Hey man so this video is like exactly what a person looking to teach this to themselves is looking for, cause no other videos have like strength training sections to show you how you can work yourself to be able to do this. Im at a point where I can jump up and down on both hands, but not strong enough to jump up and down on one hand, and i think this strength training is really gonna help! U should make more vids, ur really good at showing and explaining things! :D
I can do about 12 handstand pushups and I can hold my handstands. It's the core strength which kills me when I start doing things wtih my legs.
You have super technique and you made a superb video. HUGE props to you man. Technique is super important and you emphasized it. Seriously, huge respect.
Do you have a video of yourself breakdancing? Do you want personalized feedback on your handstands? Breakdancing Ninja has offered to review your video and provide tips to improve your breaking free. Post your video on the breakdancing forums on dance25.com
i really admire your videos coz they really TEACH me! you show the training before we are ready to do it. By the way, how is the best head position for beginers like me? is it facing forward or facing the floor?
@MexiSpice 20? are you talking about against a wall? I can do maybe 5-8 freestanding and can handstand over a min... once you get a well balanced handstand you don't actually need muscle; the balance point puts less stress on ur body. See my vid if u like handstands
@MexiSpice 20? are you talking about against a wall? I can do maybe 5-8 freestanding and can handstand over a min... once you get a well balanced handstand you don't actually need muscle; the balance point puts less stress on ur body. See my vid if u like handstands
@roberthagen i cant do any good handstand pushups, i cant even do a regular pushup well, but still i can handstand for like 40 secs so dont mind if ur not strong, its mostly about the technique
When u say to put your hands close to your feet u couldnt be farther off. U want to keep your back in a straight line when u are reaching for the floor. That way u never have to adjust your back line. The rest of the vid is well done
just keep practicing against the wall =) and try to push yourself off the wall (just so your not leaning on the wall) when u get the hang of it, and if u start to loose balance lean back on the wall . im not that good yet myself but i hope that helped somehow
if you do it against a wall to start it will help you learn to hold one straight up. Also point your toes and put your heels together to hold a near perfect handstand it took me forever to learn this lol
he says don´t look at your hands but that´s wrong, he even does it himself, when he walks on his hands he looks down on the floor and not towords the wall!
I would agree with that technique only if you are in gymnastics. Breakdancers got bored with straight body handstands and started spinning and creating poses. Once you can do a straight body handstand which is one of the skills I teach you move on to more difficult handstands.
my only problem with this video is that not once do we see an actual hand balance, what's shown here is simply strength and a little practice. that's fine if thats what you want but a true freestanding handstand takes months of training to perfect, several weeks even to get started. good job on the drills anyway, if a freestanding one isnt your thing then go ahead but i believe its well worth the practice to get that freestanding for 20 seconds easily and wont take too long from your level
Any seasoned Breakdancer can stand on their hands for 20 seconds. But when we dance holding a handstand for 20 seconds is boring. Therefore we freeze it then continue dancing.
@MexiSpice how is the best position for our head. If i head stand by the wall, i look front, but when i try to do it off the wall, i always look at the floor. great video by the way.
