Description: Day 3 - Anchoring Upper Body and Crow Pose

Those walks in the end are so much fun!❤️

Eliška Tykvartová

Broseph, that was tiring/tough. Bro, I’m tired. My hips and triceps are done-zo, Alfonso. Loving it though!

Good, but I feel I'm having trouble with a correct crow pose. I've been able to go a sort of crow for a long time, but not necessarily the way it should be

Thomas

Day three was so challenging!!!! One and two were cake walks compared to this. Gonna stick to day 3 for a lot of days before day four

Madeline

Paulina

Think I’ll need to give this one a few more goes 😂

Conor

great explanations describing pushing/pulling btwn legs hips and core. really helped me!

Brian

Still hurts my abs. Always come back to this one

Kendall Lowe

Also felt this in my hip abductors - I think they are tight!

Jessica Ann

My abs are on fire!!
I can’t get elbows into my arm pit. Is that a flexibility issue somewhere else also?

Phew! 😅 That one was though! Learning a lot from you, Brad!

Carli

I've been trying to learn a controlled handstand for almost 2 years and have used lots of YouTube videos and training programs. Yours is by far the best! The crucial insights like the power coming all from your core, etc. are completely absent from everyone else's instruction. Only three days in and I'm certain that your program will enable me to finally nail the handstand! Thank you!

Drew

Day 3 looks at proper alignment to anchor the upper body in order to access core strength that will enable you to start holding the handstand even with bent arms. It will then finish by explore drills both modifications and progressions for Crow Pose.

It was great. My shoulders feel good. I’m proud to say my mobility isn’t so bad. I’m gonna take a pic of my posture for reference to later days of the program.

Second time was a little better than the first

Day 1 - Shoulder Mobility and Straight Line

Sweet! I loved the hand/wrist strengthening exercises. Got my hand muscles and forearms pumped. Especially loved the last movement. Rolling out the forearms, elbow to wrist on a sharp edge. This is going to help me excel with my drumming as well. Very excited about that. Thank you.

Day 2 - Wrist Mobility, Grip Strength and Hand Placement

Simple and short yet my wrists are feeling it at the end.

Felt a twinge in my left wrist today that I hadn't experienced before. Definitely need to do a practice day of 1 through 4 to keep strength up!

Hard as hell, but good! Feeling the wrists and triceps!💪🏼🙌🏼

Day 4 - Straight Arm and Elbow Locking

Definitely felt the burn in my arms today 🔥

Niamh

Saeed

It’s hard to keep the knees locked in under the pits. I was having trouble holding the crow for even a second. I kept falling out. Frustrating but I’m being patient with myself. In time.

Day 5 - Upper Back and Scapular Strength

Crow is tough but I’m finally getting it. It took 3 sessions to get UP. Broke this vid up into 2 days. Seeing improvements.

Woohoo! Your tip with gazing more forward did the trick and I finally managed to balance in crow without crashpad and fear to fall! I am learning so much here! ❤️👌

Day 6 - Core Bracing and Pelvic Prep

When your practice runs deep, you can start to apply it to your life- to everyday living. #PeaceNBalance

Day 7 - Rest Day, Ujjayi and Diaphragmatic Breathing

Not sure how you do this stuff. Need it to slow down

Day 8 - Low back and Glute Strength

Day 9 - Side Body Strength and Obliques

I can do down dog to floating OK but find it much harder to do down dog and float to crow. A bit more direction would be helpful. I will be more patient!

Yair

Some alternatives for those really building our strength would be helpful :)

Julie

Day 10 - Spinal Compressions and Tuck Position

Heike

When I was practicing with my L shape with feet up against the wall, I realized it would be good for me to just hang out there. I got one free handstand wherei felt I hit it momentarily. So they was nice

Day 11 - Hollowbody, L-Kick and One Legged Tuck

Exhausting but good (the folding press work 👍🏻)

Was great, but still Hard to hold the l kick. I cant take to Much pratice, as My wrist is a bit sore.

Jonas

Day 12 - Folding, Straddle and L-Kick Variations

Still need to hold crow pose before shifting my legs on and off my arm pits

I'm hitting the goals, but I will keep working on spinal flexibility

Day 13 - Checkpoint Poses and Review

I've done jujitsu so falling isn't something I'm too scared of

Day 14 - Rest Day and Falling out of Handstand

It’s getting better all the time! 🤗 Although I could not fully keep up with you, I am noticing so much progress since the beginning. More strength, more control and much more confidence! Two questions: In the tuck jump/float. Do you keep your gaze steady and where do you look at? Also, I am not sure if and to what degree I should tilt my pelvis. I am still afraid of falling because I have not much space in my room and no real exit strategy. Will there be another video about that? Because I think I couldn’t do a somersault from there. 🤔 Thank you so much for this program! It’s awesome!

Day 15 - Float to Tuck/Straddle Handstand

Day 16 - Straight Line Handstand

I loled when I saw you first show a puppy press. No way I can do that yet. I'm going to keep working on floating

Day 17 - Puppy Press and Toe Taps

Great, but it's getting too advanced for me. I don't have that kind of core strength or balance yet. But I'll finish the videos and go spinal flexibility next.

Took me awhile to finish this video but glad I’m here. Worth the journey

Day 18 - Bent Arm Press and Float to Pike

I'm not keeping up and that's ok. Making progress

Still struggle with locking out my elbows, keeping my arms straight.

Day 19 - Straddle Press

These are very difficult to lift my legs up without struggling. Could this be weak core?
