Handstand: Not About Strength

There is a really common misconception out there about the handstand being a strength move.
While strength and conditioning is definitely a factor, the process is typically a bit more complex than "if I get strong enough, I'll be able to handstand."
Technique and psychology/perspective are very important elements to the handstand and should not be overlooked.
Interested in learning more from me about handstands, acrobatics, body control, and general physical arts?

    so true on the over-correcting part in handstands and in life. People usually do too much of things, not too little.

    So many subtle cues in this video like the posterior pelvic tilt and the weight at the knuckles

    One of your helpful tips, is to learn a handstand in weak condition so the body will adapt the technique of it, rather than over relying on strength aspect.

    ‘You just annoyed of the delivery’… I’m going to assume you are criticising Yuri’s delivery yet you can’t write a simple sentence yourself. I love Yuri’s method of teaching. He gives more than enough information, you may not take all of it in but each individual idea is valuable. So when he says something that resonates with you, think about it and you will improve.
