For my optimistic friends, try holding frogstand for 15 - 20 seconds minimum then move to further steps helps a lot

Me: Lying down in pain after 5 minutes of falling.

Hi, my name is Nik. Welcome to "How I broke my bookcase".

[robertopettyo]

All this just came natural to me when I was young. I could walk on my hands no problem when I was a teen. Now I am 75 and am trying to re-learn this. Thanks for the help.

BIG TIME SAVER:

at 2:53 make sure you swing with your higher leg, not kicking up your body with the bottom leg. Became infinitely easier bc of this. If you were already doing this, you got it right :D

This is actually such a helpful video, i've been practicing my frogstand and handstand a while with little to no success and I paused the video to try my frogstand and instantly held it with NO problem. Still working on the handstand, thanks for the amazing tutorial

10/13/2022 (Day 1): I am 19, 5'7"(170cm), 125lbs(57kg), and a body-fat percentage around 12-13%` I can bench 150lbs (68kg), squat 175lbs (80kg), and deadlift 190lbs (86kg). I go to the gym on a structured workout plan 3-4 times a week.

I will be trying each step 5 mins every day while recording my best attempts.

🚩 STAGE 1: Frog-stand (2:06). Goal: 60 seconds.
🔵 Day 1 : 🐸 23s pr! Getting tired after 5 mins :/
🔵 Day 2 : 🐸 53s pr!!!! Found my balance but holding it was very hard...
(🔸The key is accepting that you may fall on your face/fall forward, notice how often you fall on your feet.)
🔵 Day 3 : 🐸 62s pr!! I got my record on my second try while feeling in control the whole time, time for Stage 3.

🚩 STAGE 2: Wall handstand with heavy reliance (2:50). I'm alternating jumping legs for muscle imbalance. Goal: 60 seconds
🔵 Day 3 : 🐸 62s, 🚪5s, whenever I push off the wall, I can’t seem to balance myself.
🔵 Day 4 : 🐸 N/A, 🚪35s, I’m losing feeling in my left leg during 🐸, so I’ll stop until I can figure it out.
(🔸I found out that the numbing feeling was the result of cutting off blood circulation into my leg since my veins would be pinched by the normal 🐸, I’m now changing the position by having my legs inside my arms.)
🔵 Day 5 : 🐸 5s, 🚪65s, moving on to Stage 3 since I can easily hold myself upside down while occasionally pushing off.

🚩 STAGE 3: Slight (a majority of assisted handstand is unsupported) wall support (3:10). Goal: 60 seconds
🔵 Day 5 : 🐸 5s, 🚪65s, 🩼 14s, testing out a few leg positions that can help my center of gravity.
🔵 Day 6 : Stomach pains, can’t hold any of the exercises for more than a few seconds.
(🔸Day 6-Day 24, Got a slew of aliments, sickness, or injuries/strains, cannot perform practices.)
🔵 Day 24 : 🐸 23s!, 🚪28s, 🩼 12s, my wrist pains (from esports) won’t go away, but I will continue regardless, randomly doing the frog pose throughout the day has made me really good at them.
(🔸 I think randomly doing the exercises through the day helps build your balance faster than doing it in 5min chunks every day—I will test this)
12/17/2022: Randomly attempting handstands in tandem with the gym has provided enough control to begin raising my legs into the air without assistance from a still position. I have concluded that sheer strength can supplement the needed balance.
(🔸 If you have enough RELATIVE strength, you can learn to balance yourself by doing a handstand on your forearms, granted it’d be a forearm stand.)
2/7/2023: 🐸 27s, 🚪36s, I found some merit in having a large arc in my back and leaving my legs in a deadhang, will report its effectivity.

🚩 STAGE 4: Handstand with spread hands and legs without wall assistance (4:42). Goal: 60 seconds
🚩 STAGE 5: Handstand in proper form

The thing that takes time with a handstand is not getting up. You could probably learn that in a matter of minutes to hours depending on your coordination. The thing that takes long is getting you vestibular sense (balance sense) used to being upside down and which muscles to activate in order to keep the balance.
I have been teaching gymnastics for 15 years. But I usually say that it will take a year to go from novice to good if you just practice a couple of minutes each day.

For me, the hardest part is changing your mentality. I love calisthenics and I consider myself as beginniner. I could do 10 second L sit and 15 second tuck planche but can't even do handstand, a more simple skill than the skills that I learn. It's because when I first try handstand, I overbalanced and broke my damn waist. Therefore, I develop a fear from it. Then when I first started handstand after 5-6 months of not doing it anymore, I could balance myself almost instantly. It changes my entire perspective on bodyweight. Just detect that sweet balance spot, then you're good to go. I also develop a way to fall safely in case I overbalance or underbalance

Update: I could do 6 seconds handstand that took me 5 months to learn. No exaggeration, honest accurate counting from 0. This is probably because our muscle is learning that we are being upside down. I got that technique, but can't really perform it before. So the title is kind of a clickbait

Seriously, your "bonus hack" is the best advice ever! I've been trying to hold handstands for several months and wasn't able to hold more than 3 secs. I just held a 10+ seconds handstand! Thank you so much! +1 Sub

[DedekMartin]
