When I first learned how to do a proper handstand I lasted up to 2 or 3 seconds, but after a while of practicing I got up to 9 and 10 seconds. (The key is not to get frustrated. Practice makes perfect!)

How do you do a handstand?

A handstand is a seemingly simple skill that takes a long time to master. The best way to learn how to do a handstand is to first build your arm and core strength up. You can do this a number of ways. For arms I would suggest push ups and plank holds. For core, I would suggest hollow body holds and crunches. Once your strength is where it needs to be to hold yourself up, you will be ready to try a handstand against a wall. Start in a squatted position almost against the wall. Then walk your feet up (with stomach facing wall) until you reach a handstand position and hold it as long as you can. Once you have this down and can hold it for more than 30 seconds, you are ready to try a real handstand! At the beginning, try some lever hops. These are done by lifting your back leg as you lower your hands and then performing a small "hop" with your other foot when your hands touch the floor, so that for a short moment you are only on your hands. Don't worry about bringing your feet together on a lever hop. These are just used to get the feeling of all of your weight being on your hands. Once you have those down, try to bring your feet a little closer together each time until they are all the way together in your handstand. After that, work on fixing the form of your handstand by getting your shoulders directly over your hands and pushing your feet up towards to ceiling.

How do you do a press handstand?

Well, first you need to work your upper body out. Lots of pull-ups and push-ups will help. Before you do your press handstand, you need to know how to do a regular handstand. (learn a regular 1 first). *TIP- USE HIP FLEXORS TO HELP YOUR PRESS HANDSTAND. start in a raised straddle position and gently raise your hips and legs until you are in a simple handstand. PRACTICE!
