How to Perform

  1. 1

    Kick up into a handstand against a wall, placing hands shoulder-width apart, about 6-12 inches from the wall.

  2. 2

    Ensure your body is straight and core engaged, feet resting lightly against the wall.

  3. 3

    Slowly lower your body by bending your elbows, keeping them relatively close to your body.

  4. 4

    Control the descent (negative phase) as much as possible, aiming for a slow, smooth movement.

  5. 5

    Lower until the top of your head gently touches the ground.

  6. 6

    Safely come out of the handstand (e.g., kick down or walk hands out). Reset for the next repetition.
