It’s very common for the toe pull to be performed poorly, largely because people become fixated on float time, rather than understanding how the float actually occurs or what builds consistency. That mindset tends to lead people down the wrong path, stepping off the wall, swinging the hips, or shifting the shoulders, all in an attempt to “find” balance. But the skill isn’t about chasing airtime. It’s about learning how to organise the system. At its core, the toe pull is a problem of alignment and control of the centre of mass over the hands while the hands learn control and leverage. The body should behave as a single fixed unit, while the hands become the mechanism that manages balance. You initiate the float by subtly pressing into the heel of the hand, which shifts the centre of pressure forward. Then, to return, you catch through the fingertips, pulling yourself back toward the wall. Throughout this, the centre of mass should remain stacked over the hands. There should be no need for manual corrections from the hips or shoulders. Once those segments begin to move independently, the system breaks. So instead of rehearsing compensations by swinging the hips and shoulders or stepping, start building control from the base of support. #movementculture #handstand #perthfitlife #perthfitness #perthfitfam

Absolute insanity this morning. The holds were actual "still" time not falling or on my way to over or underbalance. I felt so happy and surprised at this reaquired balance.

Jump right in ✅️ See what you are capable off. And if you need to dial it back, then do so. But otherwise, Look where you got to.

Being where you need to be & being where you want to be is a matter of perspective- being where you are and making that the place you are meant to be, that’s where the power lies Good luck to everyone competing this weekend at 3 nations & Eosthenics this weekend 🖤🤝🏆
