Your handstand setup matters more than you think 👀 let me tell you why: ⁠
⁠
If you’re back bending in your handstand (aka you have a banana back ) you’re most likely back bending from your setup 😳 so make sure to revisit your setup position with this checklist: ⁠
⁠
✅ Make sure your chest is not parallel to the ground, instead, spread your shoulder blades and draw your ribs in- really focusing on that hollow body position. ⁠
✅ Your gaze should be between your wrists: looking forward will only make your chest & neck bend and we’ve established we do not want that ❌ instead, try to relax your head as much as possible, gazing in between your wrists. ⁠
⁠⁠
🔹 Remember: set yourself up for success from the get-go! These tips will allow your spine to be in a neutral position so you can kick up with confidence and eventually find that straight handstand 💫⁠
⁠
If advancing your inversion and arm balance practice is something you’ve been wanting to do my online 200hr teacher training will help you achieve your goal 💪 get all the info you need at the link in my bio ⁠
