Freestanding Handstand: How to Do It and When to Progress
- Advanced
How to do it
Kick up into a handstand with straight arms, hands shoulder-width, fingers spread. Keep your balance by pressing through your fingers and the heels of your hands, body long and tight. If you tip forward, step one hand ahead and turn out to the side like a cartwheel.
Target range
Aim for 5 to 15 seconds in each set.
