Hi , hello , welcome back to my youtube channel today .
We are finally going to be doing headstands .
I know all of y'all wanted this video .
Um We're going to be working on coal before uh and then work and progress into it .
This is going to be like how we did the push up variations , there are going to be maybe three or four parts to this because there are a lot of variations of headstand , but I want him to engage the co um So when you thing you need to understand when you're uh doing handstand is that you want your alignment .
So that means your weight , we're going to work on everything .
OK .
So for now , we are actually going to start with the core and then we're gonna go into things .
Um I've already done this version of a push up uh this version of the plan and I've already done this version of the plan for now we're going to interlock our hands with here .
So if you want to measure your distance , you're gonna get elbow , your fingertips to your elbow , open up and engage and close .
OK .
That's as simple as that .
So from here .
You wanna come .
Now , you can measure your distance as you measure the distance , you're gonna interlock your hands as you interlock your hands , push , protract the shoulders as you push , protract the shoulders .
Try not get your elbows out , ok ?
Because if you , you're gonna get your elbows out , it's just gonna be more difficult .
Ok ?
More chances of slipping and you're not gonna balance basically .
So you're gonna come inside as you come inside , push protract the shoulders as you push , protract the shoulders , you're gonna take it back up as you do this .
You do not want the butt to be up and we're gonna see the , I think the day going in 10 good night .
Eight .
Push protract your shoulder seven B number six , I keep three to what you're gonna drop your knees .
Now as you drop your knees , we're gonna come and sit .
Now as you sit , what I want you to understand and do is I want you to take your legs , bend your legs as your legs are bend .
You're gonna hug .
Now as you hug your legs , you want to keep this solid and tight .
Ok ?
Now as you do this , take the weight back , cross your legs as you cross your legs , you're gonna stay , you're gonna try and get your th squeezed in together to your chest and stomach blade stay be back .
The poor should be on fire .
It keep moving .
Seven or more .
Six very very far away .
Five four , keep pushing it .
So tendency this might tend to happen .
You want to keep squeezing it into one from here .
We gonna light it up and all these things .
Why do I make you lighter as we lighter ?
We're gonna do the same .
We gonna hug cross the leg and all you gonna do is you're gonna pull in now as you pull in kettle , what is this called chi chi up in here ?
So I just like everything out .
So also like can you see this ?
I am shedding nine .
So I'll make your way to A I like she into this seven s five four .
Almost .
It really , really dark .
Yeah .
Yeah , almost 21 .
We're gonna get the leg up as we get the leg up .
It will say 10 .
Now as much as you can , if you can't strap your legs , you can bend your legs but you wanna try to get this up over here if 760 my God .
Five .
Wait , wait , it's three two .
What you gonna get like up to 10 shoulders off the line eight ?
If your head stop letting you can place your hand under .
OK .
Seven sixth to me to what you're gonna talk about .
Whoop and you're gonna say 10 nine A P seven so close yet so far five chest are 43 almost is the body the body , the body two .
What you should feel like stuff can you see your heart just sweating like everything's sweating .
Now , I want you to take your legs out as you can like take another , I guess you OK as you went for you like where you are still to stretch up , stay you eight .
That if you find it comfortable , you can drop the shoulder .
I don't want you to hand check it like this .
I want you to take a lift it forward .
Six , almost five .
He breath in full three to one .
They gonna come up now that you feel your core is activated , we will actually go into your handstand things .
I want you all to remember the same thing as we went into your blind position .
You're gonna need to lock your hands , stretch your arm over here is not going to be on top , ok ?
It's not going to be where , you know where your child , where a child is born and the soft part , your hand is not going to be there whereas your weight is going to be there .
Ok ?
So your weight is not going to be in the forehead because , ok , see if I'm still , it moves .
If I go back , it still moves .
But if I press my hand into it doesn't move all it's going to move is into the floor .
It's not going to move sideways .
Your neck is sick things you want to remember .
You want to make sure that your neck is not hurting .
Ok ?
If you feel your neck is hurting .
You go back a step and you keep doing your plan position , ok ?
We're gonna work through .
Now , this is what we're gonna do .
You wanna get your hands , interlock your hands .
Now as you interlock your hands , push , protract your shoulders as you push , retract your shoulders .
Remember head come off the base , the crown of the head onto the floor .
Now , as the crown is there your thumb , you can either relax and place it on your head .
OK ?
From here , I want you to push the shoulders .
If you're going to sink into the floor , this is going to be a very weird heads and all the pressures again , going to come out of your neck .
We do not want that .
We want to elongate it , ok ?
So if it's one inch of the floor and it's not gonna happen .
But if that's possible , great from here in here , exhaling , I just want you to come into a and you gonna stay , stay walk as close as you can to uh your face .
OK ?
With your legs again , do not sink your shoulders in .
Push the shoulder , stay 10 .
Keep you in mind eight .
You are engaging the shoulder seven .
You're not sinking in six .
Keep breathing five , four again .
Now don't look up .
You want to look down , your chin is very close to your chest .
Three , almost 210 down .
See relaxing chest posture every time you go in water you want to relax back , counter po po so that all uh the rush of the blood onto the head is relaxed because you're not gonna get a head brush when you come up .
Four , just keep three .
So one back .
This is your first variation .
OK ?
If you find it's very intense for your neck , you're not gonna do anything else .
You're gonna keep practicing your plant and then you come into your downward and you're going to keep doing this one .
OK ?
If you find this is relatively comfortable , once you get comfortable , only , we're going to go to the next one .
Again , I don't want you to use momentum to go up .
I don't want to lose flexibility to go up .
OK ?
If you're not using that , we're gonna use the core and our shoulder strength to go into this .
Ok .
So even if you're only going to be there for like half a second , it's better than you using the momentum or um your flexibility in here .
What I mean by flexibility and momentum is this , if you're moving to a , this is me using my flexibility .
See I'm using my flexibility to get to the opposite leg .
I do not want to do that momentum .
What I mean by momentum is I am going to be doing from here .
I'm gonna be kicking up .
Can you see I'm kicking up now , if I am all I be my knees and if I kick up like this , I'm still using momentum .
Chances are when I do this .
Now , I understand balance .
OK ?
Chances are when you are doing this and you don't know balance , you will talk it over some way and we don't want , we want to try and make it a safe practice .
Ok ?
So we're gonna use our po now , the same thing we did in the beginning , we're gonna do that thing here again into lock your hands , push , protract your shoulders , get the head onto the push protract inhale as it come forward .
Now as you come forward , you wanna take your right leg .
Squeeze , I'm sorry to the left and you squeeze that left leg into your body .
OK ?
Stay 10 .
Squeeze .
Nice , sweet .
So that means it's not up .
Your thigh is next to not next to into your stomach .
Almost full .
Push to track your shoulders .
Do not drop the shoulders down .
Stream 21 , come back down the other side left .
Say 10 , goodbye .
You feel student in come by that .
No problem .
Seven .
If you understand this is a process , you want to be comfortable in it .
Three , two .
When you're gonna come back down now as you come back down , you don't pull , please stay to like the night .
If you feel like your neck is looking , you can gently give it a massage also , but it's fine .
You can just C as in three .
So what from here we're gonna get both legs up now we are not going into full hands and that means the legs are not gonna work , ok ?
All we're gonna be doing is getting your leg up to your chest .
This is all what we going to do .
What I mean by this the same way we got our legs here , the same way we got our legs here , the same thing that we did here .
And the second one , we're going to be doing that in that means you are not doing this variation nor are you doing this variation ?
OK .
Now , something I want you to know is you can do this um without the wall .
And the next one that I will show you is we're going to be doing it on the wall .
Keep the same thing in here I exist .
So don't be afraid we going to conquer our fears in here and say enough push like the shoulder , take your hand , drop it , OK ?
Lift you want to lend them the head .
Do not come this , I'm gonna say that 50,000 come forward as you come forward , you will bend the left leg .
Now , if you find this comfortable when and if you want to keep tilting the weight forward , so I am gonna be going to the back of the wall .
That's how you want to do it .
Now , once you do this , if you feel comfortable , lift one or slip 345 , drop one , 345 , relax .
We now gonna try with that .
Ok ?
With that lifting up lift say 12345 .
Come back up change if your student stop the video here take a break and do it again .
Lift up one 34 from my now one last one .
We're gonna go all the way .
Ok ?
Again just chest no legs into your chest in here I go can now push it so you see my legs are not going upward , my legs are in the body .
It's really two .
Yeah .
One left to drop and then the left the child for open my shoulders .
So I am we can like , so if you feel like a fan , if a little jam you the full three to what did you try it ?
How did it feel if you'll do it ?
If you were not able to do it ?
Try and gradually come up to these steps and it will happen .
OK ?
We're gonna do the same thing .
So we this one , can you ever see this ?
This is disgusting .
This is not disgusting , it's like sweat .
But er so this is um an easier , this is the more difficult version , the easier version is gonna do the same thing again on the wall .
OK .
Now , if you get a head stand , period , OK .
That's lovely .
If you don't get it , there's no problem .
You work yourself up to this and eventually gradually come .
If you realize by now it's not your flexibility , it's not how you can balance on your head .
No , it's your core strength and your what is it ?
Shorter strength ?
OK .
It's these two things which make you stronger to take you up , easily into a headstand .
OK ?
So if I'm not using co momentum , I'm showing up right now because this is me showing up .
OK ?
And if you want to only use um what is this only use your co OK .
Exit could come forward , ok ?
Eventually later in life , you're going to be the same day .
Two stable .
OK ?
You're gonna see uh you're not gonna say this is what I'm going to be doing just OK .
Turn back , we come back and I don't know why they do that .
But underneath again , every time you stand and said whatever it was you're doing , you're gonna relax open my just full on button and try posture .
Let the blood come back down .
I'm gonna roll out .
Now you're gonna do the same thing .
So we're gonna go to the , ok ?
So for the same thing , you're gonna to interlock your hands .
Now your hands are gonna come to the wall .
Ok ?
Now you like read the wall is here .
The wall is everyone's best friend , ok ?
My love you gonna come forward .
Since you have the guidance and the assistance of the wall , it will be a little bit easier .
Ok ?
Ok .
Bye bye .
As you come back on , you will see automatically as you're moving forward .
If you have .
So if you have flexibility , I forgot .
If you don't have flexibility , you can do the same thing .
Bend your knees .
OK ?
Ben ?
Can you see ?
I'm bending my knee .
If my hamstrings are not open , bend the knee and you want to get , can you see eventually , gradually my body is going to come onto the wall .
Ok .

And we are done ?
Oh my God .
So uh let me know if you have any questions about this .
