Exercises That Teach You How to Do a Handstand!
The handstand is one of the most versatile skills in gymnastics. It is the building block for many of the more advanced gymnastics skills such as a cartwheel, round off, back walkover, front walkover, back handspring, front handspring, and many more.
A handstand seems like a simple skill to master; simply put your hands on the ground and kick your feet above your head.
However, doing a perfect handstand is much more complicated than that. One must have the arm strength to keep their arms straight, the core strength to keep their trunk straight, and the leg strength to pull their knees and feet together.
