6am Handstand practice for 5mins

First thing in the morning, I love to do my 5mins of handstand practice. Sometimes I combine contortion and flexibility with the handstands, so I feel mobile and agile for the day ahead.

The main focus in this 5 mins of handstand practice is on the yogi position (upside down handstand pike). It relies heavily on shoulder and thoratic mobility as well as strength.

What is your shoulder mobility and strength like ? I often find the number 1 reason people struggle with handstands is because they lack the mobility and strength in their shoulders.

I’ve also included contortion training- overextension of splits and needle kicks and of course some Back bends- wall assisted and random handstands to finish this video.

Please give this video a thumbs up if you liked it and subscribe to my channel.

Happy handstands !
