This Handstand Drills and Conditioning Book has extremely useful drills for gymnasts learning the handstand and for more advanced gymnasts who need help with body tightness training. Gymnasts will practice getting tight and remaining tight, a requirement for so many skills in gymnastics.
Topics include: Specific Conditioning, Body Tightness, Handstand Shape, Keeping the Handstand Shape in Motion, and Planche Work.
The handstand is in the TOPS Testing and the compulsory routines because every gymnast must master this skill. These drills will improve the gymnast’s handstand and overall gymnastics performance. Without a good handstand a gymnast may have trouble building skills and therefore progressing through the gymnastics levels safely and efficiently.
Many of the drills and conditioning exercises shown in this book will help the gymnast learn to pull their lower abdominal section in while elongating their lower back for a straight and tight handstand position. Even at the optional levels the drills in this book will help the gymnast perform cast to handstand on uneven bars and remain tight for vaulting and tumbling.
The handstand involves so many muscle groups working simultaneously that it is often difficult for the new gymnast to fully master the handstand prior to being expected to perform even more difficult skills. Once mastered on the floor the gymnast will be expected to perform the handstand on balance beam and uneven bars. These drills will improve the gymnast’s handstand and overall gymnastics performance.
