Kick or press into a freestanding handstand with straight arms, stacked wrists, and active shoulders while using a spotter or wall if needed. Brace your core, keep your ribcage down, and protract your shoulders while locking your scapulae to prepare for a controlled descent. Slowly lower your body by bending your elbows over a three to five second count while maintaining a straight bodyline without flaring your elbows. Lightly touch your head to the ground with a neutral neck, absorbing the weight through your shoulders and triceps without bouncing. Exit safely under control by rolling out to the side or utilizing a partner, practicing on mats until your form is fully consistent.
