I dont know if we are allowed to ask questions and such but since it seems I can only post here, Ill give it a try. Today was the FIRST time I did a free handstand! I felt grass was the safest. As usually I always do them close to a wall out of fear. So today I did a bunch of cartwheels, then handstand to cartwheel. I didnt hold it but a couple seconds as I just wanted to feel safe with dismounts. I think next time I should try handstand to forward roll? Or what are other ways to bail thats controlled and safe if you overkick? I just dont want to fear hurting myself. I still have a ways to go to doing pike to handstand as I need to be stronger when I lean further over my shoulders to get my hips over my hands. As I need to use a wall behind my shoulders/head to help for now lol. Im just pretty happy I finally got away from a wall!! And was the first time since I hurt my rotator cuff that I went to a calisthenics park and my shoulder feels fine now! I just dont push it too much after that.

Im very active with running, unicycling, roller skating, dance/hip hop and do mostly callisthenics for upper body instead of machines at the gym as I find that more fun and easy to sustain. Interested in improving my handstands/pike to handstand eventually and arm balancing and also have a kip bar and would like to improve that too. Dont post on instagram sorry. Probably want to be strong enough to do some floor work, etc on my roller skates!

I want to try something new with the community. For the next stretch, I want to do my own challenge too: I will post 1 full in-depth tutorial every single day. That means each day I’ll break down: • a skill • a concept • a progression • a common mistake • or something you want a coach’s perspective on And your part of the challenge is simple: Whatever the post is about that day, do something related to it. For example: • if the post is about handstands, you do 5 seconds of handstand work • if the post is about mobility, you do a little mobility • if the post is about pull-ups, you do a pull-up progression • if the post is about core, you do one core exercise So we do the challenge together: • I post something useful every day • you take action on it every day 🎯 Now it’s your turn I’d love to know what specific skills or concepts you want more information on. Especially things where you want: • a coach’s perspective • more detail • a better breakdown • progressions • common mistakes • how to actually train it It can be something brand new, or something we have covered before that you want explained better. 👇 Comment below with anything you want covered Examples: • handstands • L-sits • muscle-ups • human flag • planche • pull-ups • dips • flexibility • mobility • reps and sets • recovery • motivation • how to structure a workout Whatever gets asked for the most, that’s what I’ll start breaking down. Let’s build the next challenge together.

My favourite part of today was when a little girl passing by stopped for a turn on the rings. She flipped right through. But when she looked at the sign for how to use the pull up bar, she says "oh it has a man on the sign, that's just for men" and I jumped right up and did a couple of pull ups and said "Oh no. Girls can do them too, just takes time and practice." I wish I'd known at that age, I could learn this stuff. Metal handles not rings, but still gave me a stable place to play without having to move my set up.

While I was doing core and compression then attempting pancakes (which is a struggle!), I decided to try v-sit tucks Obviously I'm missing flexibility, I'm thinking one of the problem would be hamstrings flexibility? On the second video I attempt to stretch out my legs and not working out too good 😂 I don't mind sharing my not so good videos even if I look weird, it helps me see what I need to work on! If I could narrow down what I need to work on, that would help so much! But how is my tuck v-sit, first video ? Any thoughts?
