Re: Episode 1 - Leg Stretching

Re: Episode 5

Re: Stuck at day 24
Dear Ingrid, Thank you very much for sharing your experience! Day 24 is indeed the most common day to get stuck on, it is where everything needs to come together for one big combined effort to kick up against the wall.

Re: Practicing handstand holds face towards the wall.

Hiya, Mhh, that's hard to tell from a distance and I must say that I'm a handbalancer and not a doctor or phisiotherapist🙃🙃. My joints do crackle, I don't even notice it anymore.
