How a regular person, with no special talent in anything, pursues goals in music, etc. Some tangential or completely off-topic posts will appear as well.
I tried lifting the supporting foot from the ground while in the One-Legged Shoulder Stand Hold. At first, I was unable to do so. Then, I got the foot off the ground, but I must have made some sort of kicking motion to do it, and in doing so, caused my hips to move too far over my head, so that I ended up doing a sort of sloppy cartwheel. Fortunately, my feet touched the floor first, so that I was unhurt. I feel like I am very close to achieving a shoulder stand. My strength is almost there. I just need to get the balance right.
I performed a maximum of 10 reps per set - my new PR - of the Assisted Inverted Press, which seems to train a lot of the same muscles involved in the shoulder stand.
In the beginning of this video, someone shows both the tuck and straight leg shoulder stand on the parallettes.
