Congratulations! Wow, 308 days! I’m still working on my regular handstand 9 months in and haven’t unlocked the freestanding hold yet. This is super inspirational. Keep it up man, I’ll be continuing my grind as well 👍🔥🎉

This is his world, we’re just living in it

I can do around 10 sec handstand on the ground and around 10 sec with parallets. I was training about 2 - 3 month to be able to do the one on the ground. Recently I tried it with parallets and only after a few tries I felt pretty stable. I really think it depends on the person which variant is easier. It is true that you have more surface doing a handstand on the ground. For me though it is hard actually even painful to put a lot of pressure on my fingertips during the handstand on the ground. I also have the pain you described with parallets though. I think the reason with the handstand on the ground is so much easier for you is that you have a lot of finger strength bcs of your climbing background and this is combined with balance the most important for holding a handstand on the ground

you used really narrow parallettes, if you used ones with more girth its actually easier than normal handstands.

Love the reaction to completing it! Congrats man

I have had the exact same experience learning to handstand on parallettes. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Nice video! Thank you! I'm very happy for your achivement, every progress that you do gives me hope to reach my goals 😁❤

I love your videos, they are so inspiring to me! I always have to laugh, when you finally made it, just because I'm so relieved and happy for you! Thanks for your content, it's awesome!

Huge kudos and respect to that perseverance! Congrats!!

Congrats, man! Crazy that it was so difficult for you to learn the handstand on paraletts when you could already do it without them. I remember that it took me about a month or less to achieve the same when I could already handstand on the ground and thought that was aready long. Now I almost always handstand on paraletts and would always agree that it is much easier than an on the ground as you have way more control to adjust in different ways.

You're reaction when you got it made my day!

I'm with you man, handstand on parallettes is harder for me too. Nice progression, super hilarious too!

This made me emotional 🥺 great job!!

Good for you man!

Great video!

Nice work! I haven't worked on the parallette handstand yet. I've been doing floor handstands for a few years now, being really dedicated the last year. I finally have the straight line form down. One word of advice: point them toes and you'll have the perfect form. Also, if you point your toes, your toes will hit the wall instead of your heel!

Incredible! A year! Incredible commitment! Congratulations!

Great job. And finally a realistic video on this topic. Handstands take a lot of work and it’s a painfully slow process.

Wow, like you I’ve watched many KZread videos for handstand tips but this video revealed several things I’ve been searching for. For example, it is universally stressed that you must keep your elbows straight, even locked out. But whenever I’ve managed to hold a handstand for more than a few seconds, it’s when I bent my elbows and I thought that was cheating! A second point is that your shoulders are not open enough when you use the parallettes and you actually find your balance when your legs are angled forward. I think my lack of shoulder flexibility is also what makes bent elbows essential to find the balance. Interestingly you seem to open your shoulders to 180 degrees on the floor. Finally, as many have commented, parallettes are easier if the bar is thicker (less pain) and you can grip them tightly using your wrists to balance both directions.

The average guy is above average now Props to you brother 👏

Thanks for the honest video!

Every single thud against the wall gave me flashbacks and was so funny to me

There is something really funny about the Sound that you feet do on the wall, especially cut and repeatedly like in that video. Keep up the crazy amount of work!

Awesome video! Its time to try the handstand push up!

I weirdly found handstand on paralettes easier than floor, but I had much longer paralettes so maybe it was a longer lever arm to correct under over balance. Awesome vid as always 👍

Thank you! I always struggled with parallettes too, it feels much harder. I think there is a big difference in balancing on thick or thin bars, though, mine were entirely too thin when I first got them, so I had to increase the diameter a good two centimeters to be able to hold it without too much pain and having enough surface area to grip and balance properly. If you notice gymnastics p bars, for example, they are quite chonky, they allow for a full grip and better sideways stabilization, I believe.

Wow great work!

It took him double the time to fully learn paralletes handstand, than to learn a handstand. I appreciate the hard work and dedication to learn such a hard skill....... Congratulations man

Correcting the balance with the elbows...haven’t heard that advice, so I’ll definitely give it a go!

@millacabral9475

3 жыл бұрын

Just be careful to not hurt yourself, sometimes you get too used to bending and straightening for balance and you can end up either bending too much and landing on your head or locking out too fast/ hard and messing up your elbows. The eventual goal is to do it with straight arms, the bending is like a crutch that should be used sparingly and slightly.

awesome handstand practice bro

I absolutely love this guy

Cart wheel next please!! I've been subscribe to your channel, really inspiring to never give up no matter how long it takes! Thanks Bro

love ur videos

I also had a similar experience with transitioning from ground to parallettes. I completely disagree with KZread's apparent consensus that parallettes are easier than the ground. Great work man, I love your videos 👍

Damn those forearms are lookin crazy😳

on a bar you can push AND pull to correct, with the flat hand on the floor you can only push.

Parallettes do make it easier, you must have just been using extremely shitty, thin, unstable ones.

I personally find it way harder on paralletes

Legend says he's still putting holes in walls with his ground kick-offs

Interesting to see different perspective.. I started to learn handstand on the ground and practiced for let´s say 2-3months. I was getting some shorter holds but still struggled, especially with a kick-up (as you also mentioned). However, then I tried my first handstand on p-bars and after some fearfull attempts (because of bigger height), I started to feel more and more comfortable on them. I could even make shapes after some time (straddle, tuck, diamond), which was almost unimaginable on the floor at that time haha. The point is, that to me parallettes always felt more "natural". It feels like I can take more advantage of a better grip & forearm strenght. Handstand push ups also feel kind of more comfortable on p-bars than floor for me (even with a bigger range of motion). This comment is getting too long.. Anyways, I enjoyed watching the video :)

Great vid, could you do a video breakdown of the false grip in the paralletes I tried hs on them too and I eventually developed an overuse injury due to my wrist being in the ulnar deviation and not in a neutral position which derailed me from the hs

Congrats! You are a true testament to learning a skill. 💯 Whoa-u have a brother and doing acro yoga? Why didn’t you include him in earlier stuff or why not confer before going on journey? Maybe it’s beta spray part of learning for yourself. Great video. Your heels should be hard as steel by now; covering wall hole reminds me of my room when I was growing up-but mine was from anger, not from balance fun. 😳

Wow 308+ days to make this video I would never have the motivation for that lol this is amazing

Next, learning the handstand on a straight bar!

You should put up a cushion on the wall. My cousin trains gymnastics and she has velcro and helmet strap wall cushions used in kids jamboree spaces on her little training corner in the house.

when he covered the hole in the wall with the mirror i died 😂

I agree with the other guy somewhere in this comment section saying that your parallettes might be bad. The grip part looks really short and curved at the ends while the base looks tall and unstable. Really suboptimal design even if it wasn't the main problem for your progreas.
