Grab two blocks or books or some kind of props to place under your palms for support. Once it feels easy with the blocks or you feel you don’t need them, you are welcome to remove them! These drills will help activate your core. Your core is very crucial to holding a strong handstand and so you aren’t “banana backing” aka crunching in your low back with a lazy core. Also, turning on your hip flexors is very important for pressing up into handstand. Enjoy!
