Step 1
Start off by doing 5-to-10 sets of 5-to-10 reps of walking into a handstand and then holding your handstand for 5-to-30 seconds (see video above) and…
Once you can easily get into a handstand and hold it for 5-to-30 seconds… you move on to step 2
Step 2
Now you can actually do handstand pushups by doing pushups ¼ or ½ way down to the floor by placing boxes or other objects under your head (see video above) and as you get stronger…
You can do handstand pushups coming down closer & closer to the floor and for your handstand pushup workout…
Make sure you keep challenging yourself doing handstand pushups by going down lower & lower until you can do handstand pushups coming all the way down to the floor and…
Once you can do 3-to-5 handstand pushups coming all the way down to the floor - Go to step 3 but if you're still have trouble doing handstand pushups…
Do Handstand Push-ups Negatives: Just take 5 seconds or longer to lower yourself to the bottom position of a Handstand Push-ups and don't push yourself back up (Just stand up & complete another negative) to build up enough strength to do regular handstand pushups.
Step 3

HSPU's cause the capillaries around my eyes to darken for 2-3 days after exercising - this is very concerning for me as I have fair skin & light eyes - just wanted to share this thx.

Man, you are a beast!

I have been doing HSPUs for 3 months. I could not see any result on my shoulder. Why is that?
October 02, 2011
where you doing full range HPUS using platform boxes and where you hands close to the wall?

Outstanding video tutorial, Adrian!
My question: You do your handstand pushups facing the wall. Is there a reason or an advantage to doing them facing the wall, as opposed to doing them with your back against the wall? Does it matter?
Thanks!

It doesn't matter I just feel more comfortable doing it that way and doing it the other way may be easier b/c you don't have to walk your hands back up on the wall

Hand stand push ups make me fart all day when I do them after breakfast. I am now doing 2 extra sets because I love the smell so much..... Thanks for bringing this perfect odor to my life.
PS: My wife loves it too!!

In the past i have always done HSPUs with my back to the wall, but my back arches too much. So i just started doin them with stomach to the wall like you. Question is - how close are your hands to the wall? like 6 inches away? or a foot away? I cant seem to get a comfortable distance. Just curious what distance you use. Thanks
September 18, 2011
My hands are less than 6 inches away from the wall but as you get more comfortable you can get closer
