Day 18
Don’t stress over the Wall handstand tutorial. You don’t need to worry about trying to get all the way up. For today I only want you to focus on proper positioning of the hands and shoulders. Work on keeping your elbows straight and your hand position.
Here are direct links to all of todays related tutorials.
Hand and wrist strength routine
Wrist strength and mobility drill
Wall handstands Work on only positioning the hands and keeping your elbows straight.

Hi Veena, my left wrist has been feeling a little sore. Could be because I overdid it on violin. Anything you would suggest for sore wrists that would be safe but still strengthening? Or would you suggest just holding off on the wrists until they’ve recovered a bit more from the extra stress?
I recently started playing guitar, and boy my finger joints and wrist gets sore so I get it. I like to use a 1:1 topical of CBD and THC on my hands at night when I go to bed and it really helps. If it’s not a new acute/sudden pain you should be fine still working on strength. In fact I suggest doing Ulnar pulls after Violin to balance out the muscles used for playing https://studioveena1.wpengine.com/lessons/view/5e7504b1-1c04-4938-a5de-4bd9ac110005 Giving the hands a good stretch after every pole and music session will help too.
PERRRRFECT, thank you!!
Handstands are not my friend! oh well something else I have to get back
