Beginners handstand press tutorial. 🤸‍♂️ . Before you begin there are a few pre requisites for the handstand press. The strength move / pressing skill are shown in this tutorial however there are certain flexibility requirements. They are; - You must be able to put your palms on the floor with straight legs. - You must have decent overhead shoulder flexibility. (Meaning you can hold your arms overhead without your rib cage opening or your elbows bending). Don’t worry if you don’t YET have the flexibility. In our stretch plan we cover the flexibility requirements needed for the handstand press. (Link in Bio). If you’re already following the plan you just need to add in these strength / skill moves alongside your plan. When it comes to mastering this move flexibility is absolutely essential. Once you have the flexibility it’s simply a case of learning the right direction. #theframptonmethod #handstandpress Music 🎵 @noxvahn & @marshmusician @anjunadeep Camera 📸 @isabellewagstaff
Why every child’s playground has monkey bars! Is it because we evolved from monkeys or that somebody years ago realised the benefits of hanging. Truth is. I don’t know why but here are 3 ways you can benefit from hanging regularly. 1. Improve your shoulder mobility. This is why I started hanging. My handstand looked like a banana 🍌 and any stretches from a yoga class felt like a tickle. For those of you that are strong or tight hanging will help to elongate that tight tissue. 2. Improve your grip strength. You’ll notice when you first hang your hands hurt. This may be because you haven’t hung for a decade or so. With a bit of practice you won’t even feel your hands. 3. Lengthen your spine. Most our days are spent compressed in chairs and sofas and for those that don’t have a regular stretch routine (link in bio) hanging will be the perfect antidote to our regular life in 2019. So how long should you hang for? Aim to hang from a bar for 2 minutes per day. Do as many sets as it takes for you to achieve that time. Eventually and through consistency you’ll be able to do this in one go. Tag me using #hanggang Need a plan to get flexible? Our stretch plan has now launched.

DO THIS if you want to improve your leg flexibility. It took me a long time to improve my leg flexibility. If I knew these three tips I would have got there a lot quicker. Tip 1. Stand upright. When stretching your legs it can be tempting to always fold the body. Include standing in a wide stance and keeping your torso upright, this helps to keep your back straight. Tip 2. Stretch in a variety of ways. After all, there are four hamstrings so it’s important to stretch the body in a variety of stretches rather than repeating the same stretch over and over. Have at least 5 stretches per area of the body that you cycle around. Tip 3. Consistently beats intensity. This is one I’m really trying to hammer home to those on the stretch plan this week. The people that are seeing the most progress on the plan are not the ones putting in the most effort but the ones sticking to the plan. The stretch plan consists of 32 specially curated workouts that stretch your body in a variety of positions helping you regain your natural flexibility, improving your bodies movement and reducing aches and pains.

Can you do this? 🐸 It doesn’t matter if you can’t!! I want to know your triumphs and what gets you through! 👇 . As a movement coach I get inundated with messages and emails from people telling me what they’re lacking or what their latest problem is. But when injured or struggling with a new skill it can be easy to forget what our triumphs are. 🙋‍♀🙋‍♂💯 💪 . Today I’m celebrating the frog stand that took me a lot of practice, persistence (and a lot of falling over). . Thanks @nakedjuiceuk for inspiring me to celebrate my triumph. #GreenMachine #PowerfulSmoothie #PowerfulYou #AD
