Handstand Development

Posted on February 23, 2026 by Kyle Posey

Gabrielle getting her MBS front page blog debut in a scaled handstand position. The handstand position is an exericise you won't find in many running or bodybuilding magazines, but we think it is an awesome exercise to strengthen the shoulders and test core strength. Being able to hold yourself comfortably in a handstand is a prerequisite to doing the much-desired handstand pushup.
