No weights today but plenty o milk! I worked on my handstands and held a handful for about 8-10 seconds. LEGIT! I was really pumped about it. I spent an hour working on kicking up to the handstand. I focused on getting the kick leg up solid first then following up with the other. I got the tip from the video below and it helped a lot. Usually I kick up and quickly follow with the other leg. Focusing on the one leg felt more controlled and smoother like I was gliding into the handstand. I also played around on a tree in the park I was in. Doing pullups and attempting muscle ups on the branch. I got my elbows over on my last try but was pretty wiped to do anything more.

I recommend getting a solid headstand then frogstand then practice kicking up on a wall and hold the handstand for time then try kicking in open space. Main points to tak home from video:
Grip the floor with your hands
Shrug your shoulders while in the handstand. (active shoulders)
Keep tight, suck in your belly button and
