Today I have a very special tutorial because the stop is one of the most important movement in the field, Street workout, yoga, gymnastics and worldwide general fitness so today I will teach you to do it in a practical and simple.
The difficulty for this exercise is very relative because it needs different skills to be able to dominate it, you need strength, you need to have balance and also need to practice enough to lose the fear.
So in this tutorial I will divide it into three sessions:
-the first will be to learn to gain strength
-The second to learn to gain balance
-the third to learn how to practice the hand stop.
Force
The first exercise to strengthen the shoulders are the back push up, where your torso should remain upright and you have to stick your head, try to go down to the floor and perform 10 reps, to make a variation of back push up with the elevated feet this will send more weight to the arms and it will make you incline more, in the same way you have 10 repetitions.
Now we are going to walk on a wall until we reach a hand stop, you can stay in this position for as long as possible or perform repetitions, down or up to the wall.
If you want to gain even more strength you can get to the position and keep one arm and then with the other arm
Since being sure and confident of having enough strength to support a hand stop, let's move on to practice the balance.
Balance
Before going to the balance we have to understand where you can find the points of support in your hand to hold, as you step on your foot most of your weight is not going to the heel but the center of your feet. So it will be in your hands when you make the hand stop your fingers will be like a balance when you're on a hand stop.
Frog's position is to recharge your elbows on the inside of your thighs or knees, and then raise your feet, tilt your body and head forward.
Now we will do the crow's position is similar to the previous one with a difference that your elbows are recharged on the knees, put your head as much as possible to mimic the position of the hand stop and remember your points of support in the hands.
Whether in frog, body or hand stop the balance of hands support works the same, create a firm foundation and do not be afraid to send weight to your fingers.
Practicing the hand stop
Now you have the strength you need and the balance enough to keep one for the hand so now the next thing is to start practicing and these are the best ways to do it.
The first step to lose the fear is to achieve a hand standing on a wall try believe me nothing happened just remember never bend your elbows or you could fall ill as it is there play with your legs to gain more confidence, you can make hand stop push up on IS Ta position to gain more strength.
The next step is to get a friend to help you in this position can help you to carry one leg up and you just raise the other, also prevent you from falling back.
After this it's your turn to try free and the easiest way to fall is to turn to one side.
Finally make it all complete:
-Make your support points aware of your hands
-Keep your eyes on the floor and a little more in front of your hands
-Align your shoulders and align your hip up as much as you can and now push yourself with one leg to reach the position and correct to align your posture.
As I told you at the beginning the difficulty of this exercise is very relative so if you are lucky maybe you can get the first attempt or perhaps week or months, it all depends on your practice and constancy following the recommendations mentioned above.
I would like to ask you have tried the stop stopped at some stage of your life and if it is if follow practicing because it has a lot of healthy benefits for your body to make the stop of hand.
