Free Handstand Double Leg Tuck
The Free Handstand Double Leg Tuck is a complex engagement handstand drill that challenges the strength of your handstand control. While you maintain a solid handstand, keeping shoulders stacked over the palms of your hands, you will engage your transverse abdominis, pulling one knee down to your chest before extending it up again. If this is too challenging, consider beginning first with the single leg tuck.
