For my first challenge i decided to go for a Handstand. Its a pretty basic exercise which i think could possibly be doable in 30 days, without having any muscles build up before. After watching a couple of tutorials on how to train for a handstand, i was a little confused, because literally everyone said something different. From what i`ve seen very important points in order to do a handstand are:
- obviously upper body strength
- strong wrists
- shoulders in specific
- elbows – kinda scared of that one
So if i want to do it in 30 days i have to improve very fast, without getting injured. My first days will consist of:
- wrist exercises
- walking up the wall
- pike hold
So first workout is done, it was way harder then expected. The pyke hold and wrist exercises were okey, but the wall walk and hold felt “wierd”. I was really, really shaky. Remember for tomorrow, go closer to the wall, maybe that will help.
Okey while looking at the video i found out i hold the wall thingy for like 50 seconds, which is waaaay to much. We want nooooo injuries, need to get that number down and repetition up.
Du geile Nudel, bin gespannt auf den Handstand. You go, girl ✨
