Hi I’m 53 and would love to get some strength happening. I want to get up into a normal push-up and also some Handstands. My instagram is Lillzy

First things first… 👏 Huge congrats to everyone who showed up for Week 1. Whether you trained 1 minute or 30 minutes, daily contact with a skill is a BIG win. Week 1 wasn’t about perfection. It was about showing up, building the habit, and proving to yourself you can stay consistent. Now let’s roll into Week 2. — 🧠 Quick Reflection (Post This 👇) Before choosing your next step, take a moment and comment below with: • One thing you were proud of from last week • Did daily practice feel easier by the end of the week? • Did consistency improve your confidence, control, or awareness? No judgment. No overthinking. Just honesty. This reflection is part of the progress. — 🔁 Week 2: Stay the Course or Switch It Up For Week 2, you have two solid options: Option 1️⃣ — Keep the same skill • Double down • Go a little deeper • Same skill, better quality • Same skill, slightly harder progression Option 2️⃣ — Choose a new skill • Fresh focus • New stimulus • Apply the consistency habit to something new Both are wins. There is no “better” choice — only the one that fits YOU right now. — 🛠️ How Week 2 Works Same rules as last week 👇 • Pick ONE skill • Work on it every day this week • 1 minute counts • 30 minutes counts • Showing up counts Post what you did here 📝 Want feedback? Film it 🎥 or describe it clearly. The more you share, the more I can help. — 🤸‍♂️ Skill Ideas (If You’re Unsure) Strength or skill-based options • Handstand or handstand drills • Pull ups or chin ups • L-sit, tuck holds, or leg raises • Muscle-up progressions • Crow pose or elbow lever Movement & mobility options • Animal flow or locomotion • Deep squat work • Hanging, shoulder health, or mobility If you’re stuck, just comment “help me choose” and I’ll guide you. — 💬 What to Do Now Comment below with: • What you were proud of from Week 1 • Whether you’re keeping the same skill OR switching • The ONE skill you’re committing to for Week 2 Consistency is already working. Let’s build on it 🔥

I want this community to be genuinely useful for you. Not just a place to scroll. A place where you actually get the help you need to move forward. We already have a Simple Start Plan for beginners. We have the Masterclass for technique and structure. We have the Masterbook for deeper progressions and long term guidance. We have a Handstand Video Training in the works... But I want to know what YOU need next. Clearer progressions? Help with a specific skill? Accountability? Mindset? Weekly routine planning? Staying consistent? Something missing from the resources? Tell me honestly so I can make this community as awesome as possible. 💬 COMMENT: What is the number one thing you need help with right now?

Getting stronger is amazing. But here’s the hard truth: if your body can’t move freely, that strength has limits. Mobility is what makes strength usable. It’s what lets you flow between movements, stay pain-free, and unlock advanced skills like levers, handstands, and flips. When I coached gymnastics and parkour, I saw this over and over: athletes who made mobility a priority progressed faster, stayed healthier, and looked smoother in their skills. Meanwhile, the ones who skipped it? Shoulder pain, stiff hips, aching wrists — progress stalled. Here’s a simple 2-minute daily routine you can try right now to get started: - Shoulders: 30 sec passive hang (use a chair or band for support if needed). - Hips: 30 sec deep squat hold (hold onto something if balance is tough). - Wrists: 30 sec wrist rocks or palm lifts on knees (or in cobra stretch if possible). Cycle through 3 rounds. Breathe deep, exhale into each position, and focus on relaxing tension. You can do this as a simple cooldown or a way to start the morning. It doesn’t take hours — just minutes — to start feeling more freedom in your body. 👉 What’s the one area holding you back right now — shoulders, hips, or wrists?

Most people picture progress like a movie montage. Work hard, do the right drills, then suddenly BOOM — the skill is unlocked. But that’s not reality. It's the same as being at the bottom of a staircase and thinking you just "arrive" at the top of the staircase. Skill training is about small wins, patient steps — and then one day, almost out of nowhere, you realize the journey to took to get where you are. It’s both a blessing and a curse. What It Actually Looks Like - Crow pose → headstand → handstand against the wall for a few seconds. - Holding 15 seconds → feet bouncing off the wall. - Kick-ups against the wall → kick-ups on the floor for 1 second, then 2, then 3… maybe 1/10 attempts. That’s the process. It’s not glamorous, but it’s powerful. Focus on the Micro Wins Every little step is progress. - The first second of balance. - Increasing by 1 second - The first clean rep of a new progression. - Feeling more comfortable - The first time your body feels the movement instead of fighting it. Celebrate those moments — because they’re proof the bigger breakthrough is coming. 💬 Question for you: What’s the last “micro win” you celebrated in your training?
