Handstand Push-Up

How to

Bodyweight
  1. 1 Kick up to a handstand against a wall, hands shoulder-width.
  2. 2 Lower the head toward the floor under control.
  3. 3 Press back up to straight arms.

Tips

  • Learn to hold a handstand against the wall before adding push-ups.
  • A folded mat under the head sets the depth.
  • Pike push-ups with the feet raised are the step before.

Common mistakes

  • Letting the elbows flare wide.
  • Arching the back far off the wall.
  • Dropping onto the head.
