@roh74 You’re welcome!

@dawn16 I don’t understand your question

@qshen You’re welcome

@christian45 Boom!

@annadyo Glad you liked them. Good luck to you and your hubby (I wish my wife was into HSs!)

@reversemortgage Thanks for the compliment! I appreciate it a lot. Good luck with your HS journey

@douqqoo Firstly - practice, practice and patience. It takes time, you can’t really rush it. Secondly - practice your free HS close to the wall, so that if you fall you can catch yourself (with your leg) and find your balance again. This will prolong the length of time you’re upside down from a...

@naka THIS. There coincidentally is an adults gymnastics class in my city I reached out to before Xmas, but ended up not following through. Maybe post lockdown it’ll be worth “levelling up” and checking them out

@jrbrumm30 Good work!

@christianguy89 Haha I’ll add a caveat to my comment: don’t be disheartened - as long as you keep turning up (and not overtraining) you’ll nail it eventually! But good on you for being committed. We only learn our limits by testing them, so you’ve gained something from that experience.

@christianguy89 I was where you are for months and months. If you take anything at all from my post take this: don’t be disheartened! So long as you keep turning up you’ll nail it eventually. Good luck!

@levi7 Thanks and good luck!

@east81 Thanks for sharing the info dude - you’re an inspiration.

@mmodaaaily Wrist strength: GMB’s wrist prep before each session. And Antranik’s wrist strengthening exercises for daily strengthening. As for shoulder strength, I’d recommend starting from something like downward dog scapular raises. If that’s too easy, practice building endurance against the...

@east81 Daily?

@sam2017 I appreciate the idea! I think you’ve really hit the nail on the head regarding training to “be fit, have fun and be injury free”. That’s quite literally what it’s all about. I shall definitely throw in some HS walks from now on - thanks!

@east81 Can I ask - how often and for how many minutes/hours per session did you train?

@sam2017 I totally get your analogy and it does make intuitive sense. I’ve never tried to practice HS walking simply because I’ve read many times that it encourages bad form. But like you said it’s about manipulating form to find the center of gravity, so perhaps if the goal isn’t to actually HS...

@east81 I NEEDED this post. Thanks pal. I’m embarrassingly 3 months in and still can’t hold a HS for more than 1-2 seconds. But my training is sporadic at best because of, well, life. I will take your lessons and will try learn from them. Thanks again.

@holyspirit2014 Yea. This is the kind of study I’d like to see: one comparing “non-warmup athletes” to “warmup athletes”
