Same concept as before, this time applied to your tuck handstand. 👇
Instead of dumping forward into your shoulders as you tuck, catching your balance, and then trying to fix your shoulder position afterward, try opening your shoulders on the way up instead. 🎯
Here’s the idea for you. If your shoulders are already opening during the kick itself, you’re not landing in a compromised position that needs correcting once you get there. You’re arriving with your shoulders already closer to where they need to be. ✅
Same caveat as always. This isn’t a mandatory rule or some secret cue guaranteed to fix everything instantly. It’s a thought worth playing with, a shift in what you’re focusing on during the tuck that some people find genuinely changes how their entry feels. 🔥
Try opening your shoulders as you kick into your tuck next session, instead of fixing it after you land, and see what you notice. Know a handstand friend who could use this same thought? Share it with them. 👇
