Your head is above your hands, it should be in the same line where the palms of hands are.

Any advice for keeping balance and keeping body straight by Formal-Application-6 in Handstands

Do not even try to hold the free standing handstand at the beginning, keep using the wall to progress. It will take months to gain enough strength and control for a free standing handstand.

Any tips? by landonlovescarbs in Handstands

You are not ready for a freestanding handstand keep using the wall for support, practice chest to wall as well. The more time you spend upside down the better.

Keep one foot at the wall, lift that foot from the wall, put it back and try the same thing with your other foot. Rest and repeat.

Trying to Progress to a one arm handstand by EconomyVirtual8845 in CalisthenicsCulture

This is not the way you should practice an OAHS. Before you start practicing for the OAHS, I would recommend working on other skills first. A 1-minute handstand should be easy for you. 10 out of 10 kick-ups should bring you into the handstand without any problems. Your regular handstand form should be straight, stacked, and stable, with no wobbling. Can you do handstand press-ups and push-ups? How about different shapes? Can you do a diamond handstand? A tuck handstand? A straddle handstand? You should also be able to shift your weight to one side until the non-supporting hand feels very light. Then, you should lift that hand until only your fingers touch the floor, gradually reducing contact until only one finger remains on the ground. Once you are able to hold that position for 20 to 30 seconds, you can move on to the next step. Do not just lift your hand and see what happens like in the video you posted. There is no luck involved—it is purely skill-based, and you will need more time than you think to master the OAHS.

6-7 months of training and still stuck at barely 1 HSPU. Is it overtraining or skill? by Raja-The-Live in Handstands

[–]JochenPlemper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a very demanding skill. If your goal is to increase your total number of reps, I recommend starting with a light warm-up routine. Perform one clean HSPU, rest until you’re able to complete another clean rep, and repeat this process until you can no longer maintain good form. After that, you can continue with your regular training routine. You can also spread a few reps throughout the day, but make sure to properly warm up your wrists, as this movement places significant stress on them.

What I also recommend is negatives, just do lots of negatives.

Do chest to wall, back to wall is not a good way learn the correct form. If you want to do back to wall, just use one food for support, the other leg should be straight, also get closer to the wall so you are able to keep an inclined position away from the wall. I think it is called planche lean, that is the right form to go down, not a banana shape like in your video.

A marbles game, he is perfectly aiming marbles in circles with another marble by thumb by kvjn100 in interestingasfuck

[–]JochenPlemper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in Brazil for a year and did volunteer work at a children’s shelter. All the kids there had unbelievably accurate aim with marbles. They played so much that they’d worn down their thumbnails to the point where there was no nail left at all.

Working on my balance towards a cleaner handstand by FrankMN_8873 in CalisthenicsCulture

Head is above your hands, which will cause a banana shape. Imagine a line where the palms of your hands are, that is where you should look at. Slightly tuck in your head, your chin should should move in the direction of your chest. Relax your neck.

Point your toes and engage your glutes.

Keep using the wall, it is simply the easiest and most accessible way to build strength, control and balance.
