haha today was shoulder day and I did indeed do handstand pushups to help warm up. I only weight 180 though.  :'( Only did 20 but it sure was far far far from failure.


By the way, these are a LOT easier than they look. I figure most people with balanced strength can do about as many handstands as they can pull-ups. Well maybe 2/3rds as many? Rough estimate.

I'm sure Jason could pop out 20- 30 and not break a sweat, you know, just like he does with his full-range bloofy chins....

Hahahaha...

And yes they are easier than they look, if you did a lot of different types of push ups early in the game and have some sort of balance they aren't that hard even for a big guy.

PS. I think many other exercises are much BETTER as in safety vs returns.
