Lost Art of Hand Balancing Blog

It’s the system guaranteed to teach you how to hold the handstand as quickly as possible.

But that’s not all you get if you order.

You’ll get July’s issue of Acrobat Accelerator which will take you step by step through pushups on the fingertips all the way into fingertip handstands. And more on the handstand snap down.

Plus if you order this week, or until supplies run out, I’ll throw in one of the 27 remaining copies left from June.

You’ll learn all about rolling, backwards extension rolls, combining them with handstands, an exercise to build stronger wrists for hand balancing success, headstand leg raises and more.

That means when you order you’ll get three newsletters and DVD’s for the price of one!

Seems like a good deal to me. If you agree head over to the Secrets of the Handstand.

P.S. I know a few people were clamoring over when this product was back in stock. Better hurry to make sure you get the June issue.

We will keep up that momentum through the whole month with a new release (or re-release) almost every single week.

On top of that there are new articles and videos coming. To hold you over here’s a new question from Ross.

“Hi, I’ve looked through the site and find it very interesting. One point I was surprised not to see mentioned was the factor of age in learning balance. I was always told that you must start very young to ever have exceptional balance. Is this true or just a myth? I am 29 and always assumed I could probably learn handstands but not one-handed or anything advanced. As a break-dancer, I have always concentrated on movements and neglected static balances for this reason. “

I don’t know where you heard this but it’s something that I’ve never have. And it’s definitely a myth. Be careful any time you assume something. You know what that does, right?

If you look at it logically you’ll find the only thing that could stop you from learning is in your mind. There is no physical aspect that occurs at what, say 9 years old or maybe its 13, where its too late for you to become a good balancer.

Sure there is benefits to being young in regards to balancing. They have many more years to practice. Plus their mind is much less likely to get in the way.

I tell you what’s true though. If you believe you’ll never be able to hold a one-hand handstand than you definitely won’t.

The same holds true for anything in life. Don’t believe you can learn a new language or to play a musical instrument. Then you won’t make the effort and you won’t reap the rewards.

Good Luck and Good Hand Balancing,

P.S. If you do want to learn the One Handed Handstand, you need a plan of action and that plan can be found here.

“Is it possible for a weak old man to develop the strength necessary to do a handstand? (presently outa condition and overweight). when will the dvd be available again?” -Dennis

The Secrets of the Handstand Quickstart Guide has been sold out for a couple weeks. But it will be coming back, better than ever, and soon. Stay tuned for that.

Anyone, no matter their age can get started hand balancing. To be truthful, the normal handstand doesn’t require a whole lot of strength. It’s a matter of using the body in the correct way to support itself.

That being said, if you are really out of shape, handstands may not be the best starting point. Use other easier exercises like regular pushups to build up your strength levels before you begin.

“Heyy! I can do a hand stand but my only problem is I can only stay balanced for a few seconds maybe about five. How could I improve that??” -Shae

Well, Shae just keep practicing. While there are helpful tips to keep you up in the air, nothing takes the place of practice. Get into a good position and work the balance.

“Hello. I’d like to know how the arms move when doing HSPU’s. I mean do the shoulders stick out to the sides, or do the shoulders stick out in front of the person? Thanks” -Daniel

Where your shoulders and arms point can make a big difference in doing handstand pushups. You can do it either way but one will be harder than the other. I’ll leave it up to you to figure out which one is what.

As far as freestanding handstand pushups you’re going to have to take the elbows in position unless you do a handstand with a large base, that is the arms spread out wide.

That’s it for today.

I wanted to show you as much as I could of what’s in store when you get the DVD’s.

Before you head over to the site there’s one thing you should know.

The shipping on these DVD’s will not be as fast as it is with all the other products I sell. I have to submit the order to the manufacturing company and I don’t know how big the demand is.

But by placing your order now I can figure it out and get the action into your hands as quick as humanly possible.

That’s just my long-winded way of saying it will take about an extra week or so to get your order.

Also you can save some dough if you order the full set of eight DVD’s. Or just buy them one at a time. The choice is yours.

Sorry if I’m rambling. I can’t help it but I am really excited about this. When you get the DVD’s you’ll understand why.

Without further ado, head on over to the Chinese Acrobatic DVD’s

Since that’s the case you have my full permission to forward this email or the link to the site to your friends and family. They’ll thank you for it. http://www.lostartofhandbalancing.com/chineseacrobatics.html

 

Here’s a new video of the Chinese Acrobatics. I like this one even more plus it gives you a bit of the story on where this competition took place.

Stick around until the end where you can see the conclusion on one of my favorite acts (of which there’s at least 20 or 30 of them).

All I can say is ‘WOW’ and I think you will too. That’s some skill and balancing ability.

You’ll be able to get full length DVD’s of this action this Thursday. Stay tuned.

Good Luck and Good Hand Balancing,
