Learn Correct Handstand Form

June 14, 2012 By Gregor Winter

More gymnastics stuff today.

Here is a video with some good drills to improve your handstands.

  • Posterior Pelvic Tilt – flattening the lower back, to eliminate arching
  • Protraction of the scapulae – Cue:  “Chest in”
  • Scapular elevation – Cue “covering the ears”, shrugging up
