First steps toward HSPU

“It is better to take many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward.”


As far as it comes to workouts I can be pretty crazy and sometimes even dangerous for myself! ;) I always want to be able doing every exercise that exists out there! Nothing wrong with that, but unfortunately I have some really bad injuries. When I was a basketball player I dislocated both of my shoulders five times, and the injuries were pretty bad. I won't go in detail, I will just say that the injuries left behind some pretty serious movement limits in my shoulders and a really paranoic fear!

I remember the first year after the injuries, when I put my arm under the pillow or in some weird position I used to wake up crying scared that I was gonna dislocate my shoulder again. It took me a long time to overcome some of my fears but I still have a long way to go.

For the last year I have been doing crossfit, and I love the idea of doing handstand push ups(HSPU). I know that this won't be soon but after long contemplations I decided to make the first steps towards HSPU. So since yesterday I am doing some handstand progressions and it is going really good so far. Yesterday I was more careful and I did not dare to stick to the wall or to the tree ;) but today, driven by the excitement of doing handstands I did stick to the wall and I am really happy! :) I am looking forward to improving further and finally reaching my goal! :)
Trying to get up :D
