Awesome bro

Thanks man!!

[@crafttime1392]

Nice post sir

[@AzadC]

What difference is there when learning a handstand from frogstand rather than the kick up. I am currently being able to hold my frog those 15-20 secs. But is there really a difference when learning them from the frog rather than the kick up. I am pretty new to hand balancing. And no matter how hard i try the kick up thing i cant simply figure it out.

[@BarRookie]

Hey man! Thanks for your comment! The purpose of the frogstand is to prepare your wrists and shoulders for the pressure that is going to come on them. Once your wrist are prepared and once you can balance with your fingertips its just a matter of bringing it to a larger scale. I suggest the next step is to kick up into a handstand against the wall. A talked about this in my other handstand videos, so you might want to check out my handstand playlist 👍 If you have further questions, i'll be glad to help you out!

[@kietal-asi3972]

this help me

[@BarRookie]

It will! :D Good luck with the handstand bro!

[@valienem]

I could hold for 9 seconds. Thanks, this helped. How long should i train to hold frog stand to be able to attempt Hand stand?

[@BarRookie]

Thanks for your comment! 9 seconds is already great, well done. I would go up to 60 seconds for the frogstand. It sounds like a lot, but you should see quick progress. The reason for this long time is because your wrists need time to get used to holding your weight. Its all about longevity here!

[@vloginstrumentals4217]

Were you able to do the bat hang? Remember, he started off with a bat hang and then frog stand

[@greenshrex7532]

Just practice frogstand and you will see

[@knuccklespinkwolffur8886]

i can hold it 11 to 12 seconds

[@Blade_of_Tomoe]

Vaibhav Chauhan my maximum is about 16 seconds...I thought this was very little but it seems like others are at my level too, that's nice

[@hdela8172]

+Bar Brothers Belgium thanks brother!! 💪

[@shamimahmed4297]

Nice

[@BarRookie]

Thanks!

[@davealmeida9786]

My right wrist gets sore alot, will this make it worse or help strengthen it?

[@BarRookie]

+Dave Almeida it depends on how long you've been doing them. If its your first days of trying, I can assure you that they will strengthen. If it becomes painful, try doing handstands less frequently. Hope that helps 💪

[@starimakrootac3379]

Oh shit I did it

[@BarRookie]

Awesome mate!! Now on to the handstand!

[@nabinchandrabisoi786]

Thanks for uploading it you are looking alike Chris Evans

[@BarRookie]

Haha, thanks man!!

[@jonathan-vc1op]

So does the skin on my elbow and thigh supposed to hurt at first bc of friction? Do you put pressure in your elbows?

[@BarRookie]

Mine did hurt also in the beginning. But after a while you'll find a good position indeed so there is less friction.

[@jonathan-vc1op]

BarRookie alright thanks man, I thought I was doing it completely wrong at first

[@BarRookie]

As long as you're able to balance, you're doing great! There is almost no way of doing it wrong 💪💪

[@outofscenes]

I hit like because of the Slav Squat LOL

[@BarRookie]

Slav squat for life!

[@breezybreeze730]

Good looking man 😍

[@BarRookie]

Thank you so much!!

[@faustodreyfuss9803]

I use a pillow😄😎 try it!

[@BarRookie]

I used a block on concrete, the floor wasn't hard enough 😂😂

[@jad9727]

When I do it, it fucking hurts my abs and thighs. I can hold it for like 8 seconds though. Does it normally hurt my abs and thighs. My elbow digs into my thighs and it's like my genital area is being stretched

[@BarRookie]

That might be due to tight hipfexors and quads. Personally I have felt it before in my thighs after a heavy squat session. You can try by stretching your hipflexors and quads first and see if this changes the frogstand. Hope it works!

[@jad9727]

BarRookie i didnt really read your comment, but i'm now able to hold it for 30 seconds. Yass. And holding the form with your fingers truly helps.

[@HolyCity2012]

I didn't know that was a thing 🤔 Thanks for dropping the knowledge bomb! 💪🤣

[@chwoey]

[@BarRookie]

I hope the pain was only temporarily and you now can hold an awesome frogstand!
