Beginner Handstand Follow Along Workout - Beginner Calisthenics

[@anna7276]

I’ve been doing this 2/3 times a week for the last 2 months. I can now stay up on wall the whole 30 seconds and can also do a handstand freely and stay up for like a second or two! It’s been great!

I am beginner and a handstand seems like rocket-science but this vid was very encouraging...will definitely try this workout

[@zharik]

hey! got any progress?

[@SB10555]

Thanks for putting this together, Lucy! I’ve been looking for a good beginners handstand video and they’re surprisingly hard to find. The progressions are great and, as an athlete, it’s nice to get back to simple exercises, especially since my wrist mobility is almost nonexistent. You have a new subscriber!

[@luisefelicitas3284]

I really love your workouts! You manage to make them so encouraging and motivating.I have been working on my handstands for 2 months now and I can already see results. Thank you for supporting me on my journey :)

[@MsErika1226]

Nice :) I am starting today :)

[@emilyhewson]

Just had a go at this workout. Thank you! I'm going to work on handstands. I know it will be slow progress but I am at a stage where my upper body is stronger than it's ever been so this is something I can work towards! 🙂

[@nickevans4651]

Calisthenics is the maximum of strength and power expressed in bodyweight, I started my journey with Caliwer and I am achieving amazing results

[@yakkidiyak]

KZbin has been watching me. I’m learning to do handstand. I was actually practicing on my own this morning and this video shows up on on my feed. Thank you for the tips, Lucy. Great video. I’m gonna follow this! By the way, can you also please make a video on how to do a kick up to handstand as well?

[@CrysfelDev]

Im wondering if you have done it??

[@afoona]

Thank you so much! I wanted to get back to my handstand practice after 10 months of sensitive/weak wrists, this was a really good routine. Will do that for the next few weeks

[@victoriag332]

Wow that was so good! The rounds gradually getting harder was a great way to build up confidence! I never thought a handstand would be possible for me but I now have hope😄😄😄. Thanks Lucy!

[@florcorvalan2572]

i love this workout! I've always wanted to learn how to do a handstand but I never knew where to start, this routine is super helpful

[@damienabbott9805]

Followed this tutorial for the first time today and it was absolutely amazing - thank you Lucy 🙏

[@debricawebster3543]

I did this today and I loved it! Thank you!

[@zilchrhythm]

I’ve been wanting to do handstands for years now but still not able to do it. Your video is giving me a good foundation for building this up. Thank you so much

[@mlouw8218]

Thank you! I love that you’re doing more follow alongs 🙏😊

[@tanishakohli7]

I started practicing handstands with another beginner follow along tutorial of yours on KZbin! It helped me a lot!

[@ishachawla5882]

Hey Lucy, I really love your videos. You inspire a lot...thank you girl♥️

[@lucylismore]

Awww thank you so much! I’m so happy they help in some way - that’s all I could ask for ♥️♥️

[@confirmed_real]

Hey Lucy! This workout was great and I’ve been loving all the workouts on the app too💪🏼 I would love to see a video about what you do on rest days! Curious about things like foods and healthy habits that aid in muscle recovery or prevent injury. Thank you for all of the great content and for helping me get back into shape! ❤️

[@TruTrinity]

You offer instructions beautifully. Thank you ❤️

[@hannaplate5468]

This was a perfect, quick, effective workout. Really enjoyed the content, thank you for creating and sharing it 😊

[@isaac473]

Thanks for share this great content!!. You are a motivation for us and for the new generations that are starting training in a natural an healthy way. You looks amazing and You are so beautiful!. Grettings from México 🇲🇽🇲🇽🎉🎉

[@christinawieser5231]

I love the routine and the idea of three difficulties! I would just find it easier to follow along if you would first explain/show the drill and then start the timer...otherwise the timer is halfway over when i can start to do it. That makes me a litte stressed during the workout. But anyways a really great handstand routine!

[@HomeFitHero]

Useful workout, thank you!! :)

[@bloomboyd_]

could you do a workout that focuses on control? like slow movements that push the muscles

[@jamieashton7285]

Awesome 😎

[@yakkidiyak]

Starts at 3:11

[@АлінаБаранник-ь5ф]

ok, tooday is the first day I'm doing it. i will do it 2 or 3 times for week. it was hard, and I'm really afraid standing near the wall 😢

[@kevinphillips5045]

Great video Lucy,I have trouble with trying to get pike position. Cant get my hips over my wrists,any advice please

[@anna7276]

Day 2 of doing this…. The struggle is real! Lol. But I’m going to keep at it - my wrists abs shoulders feel so good after it!

[@lucylismore]

Yesss amazing work 🤸🏻‍♀️❤️

[@anna7276]

7th day of doing this every day. Finally got up the wall!!! Dare I say I’m getting a bit more stronger and flexible??? Xxx

[@MsErika1226]

@@anna7276this is a motivating comment! :) are you still practicing?

[@reesebryant2178]

My goal is to do a handstand, but should I start with a forearm stand first? Thanks!

[@mad1739]

Hell yes!

[@Lizz4927]

I would like to learn handstands but I'm afraid it will be too hard since I'm quite heavy... Does anyone have any experience doing handstands while being overweight? I go to the gym 2-3 times a week and focus on strenght training, so I am slowly but surely building some muscle. However I wonder if that will be enough to support my bodyweight...

[@rubymagalian449]

😍😍

[@eatmykwad]

my wrists are completely immobile, breaks my tiny hart I can't do this.

[@mad1739]

Im not sure how immobile they are and if this would be a functional adaptation for you - but perhaps you could try it on low bars? This way you don't have to bend your wrist back and you can practice with your wrists stacked neutrally above(or below I guess!) your forearm?

[@tybaltmercutio]

You just gotta take enough time to warm up your wrists. I‘m doing calisthenics for almost two years and each and every time before the workout my wrists feel super tight. It usually takes me 10 min to 15 min of pure wrist warm up to feel ready for planks, Chaturangas and so on. Try to start with moving back and forth very slowly while being on your knees (as she showed in the video) and extend the range of that movement progressively. To this, until you are at the point where it feels okay to move your shoulders over your wrists. Then, you can continue by doing circular movement (with hands pointing forwards as well as sideways) as shown in the video. What also helps my warm up is to hold my wrist with one hand while slowly circling the other hand. Just give it a try. I‘m sure if you give it sufficient time, you wrists will feel much more mobile. But I also gotta say that this workout doesn‘t seem proper for a total beginner. On one side it might be „too easy“ to build up shoulder strength and on the other side the exercises on the chair/wall can feel very intimidating/scary for a beginner and for these you should already be able to do proper shoulder shrugs in a simple plank position. I would suggest, starting with a wider range of plank variations (side planks, forearm planks and so on) to build up a solid foundation.
