 All right, everybody next up in our handstand prep progression now We're gonna start doing stuff that looks a lot more like handstands. So we've done Pikes and pike holds before we we did them with our feet elevated on a really high block or stool in my case Now we're just gonna start on the ground and we're gonna scissor kick So we bring bring one leg up to try to start learning the balance portion of this Okay, so I would do this after my wrists are pretty comfortable with taking on some of the load of my body weight And now I can I can start to use That ability To train the balance part right because I'm gonna need a little bit of time there to kind of feel things out so that I can Learn what it's like to control my body weight on my hands It's not like doing it on your feet Okay, so let's start hands down. I like to start on my knees make sure my Hands get really flat and my fingers get really wide. I always take my glasses off because they fall and Then from here, we're gonna just pike up Pull the belly button in and back Keep the neck along and I'm gonna look between my hands right here Walk my feet up this So now I'm trying to get my butt as vertical as I can then I take this and I Reach and hop Just like that so I try to get more and more Towards the balance point so the goal here Isn't necessarily To do a handstand right it is to start getting more and more comfortable Inverting your body and balancing yourself So let's I'm gonna take this and we're gonna do another variation right now. So you take your Block that you used before And you're gonna start with your feet on that block now and this way now that's nice and tired This way You're kind of ready Pull my belly button back. You're kind of ready to just lean right into That balance so from here. I just go until My foot comes off the block and I'm tired So if I keep going I'm not gonna get very good working It's just like that it's very slow very gradual try to be it's hard when you're flipped upside down You got all this weight on your arms It's hard to really think about it But I would challenge you to try to think through it right we're going slowly I want you to feel it out I want you to feel what it's like to put more weight on your hands to kind of shift Your weight around and balance yourself That is the pike hold scissor float
