View Full Version : one handed handstand
in the night i heard a voice say " Jonny, stop masterbating and put that wrist to good use, and try and balance on one hand"
Never thinking of this idea i gave it a try.

this is one of my goals
I can balance the normal handstand pretty well, but when I put my weight onto the other hand, its just one or 2 seconds.
I can do them for over one minute next to a wall.
is there any other exercise to improve them besides the going to handstand, then shift weight, and do a one-armed?

Ahh I've been chasing this for months to no avail. Great job!
hey wow! thanks guys, best response i have had on TT.
best tip i can give you is dont have arms to far apart, makes it a right bitch to transition onto one hand, and live on finger tips for as long as you can, instead of taking your hand off and comming down after 2 secounds, go onto the finger tips and live on there for as long as you can, will devolope strength alot quicker!

This would be my ultimate goal... But I would never get there.

A friend of mine is training on poals like that. I can stand rather good on two, training on one hand now but cant stay longer than 3 seconds.

handstands are the shit
She has some crazy endurance Ryan. I've also been chasing this but the form on my regular handstand is pretty bad from a gymnastics point of view I think. Anyway I'll have it soon enough with a bit of practice.
awesome. I have been working one arm handstands for a while but progress is slow
you win for now

That was a good move but why the ridiculous camera angle, you can't even see the feet

I expected this to fail, but masturbation has clearly served you well. Your 1-arm is pretty legit, prolly nicer than mine. Epic high five!
How are you with hops?
hey thanks for the comments guys realla rpciate my hard work paying off. progress with these is SLOOWWWWWW but its getting there.
Hopes the most i have done is 5, i don't like do them to much, i alredy have a bad ankle, i don't want to mess up my wrists :P
Apologies for the wack camera angle, i have to go really far back just to get my torso inshot, and didnt have much room.
