Handstand training can help you develop tremendous upper body strength, as well as a great sense of balance and body awareness—but it also offers something that a lot of exercises can't. It's actually fun.

If you've made it your goal to be able to hold a free handstand—or to take it further, and do free standing handstand pushups—this is the book for you. How To Do A Handstand covers everything you need to know to master these skills and make handstand training a part of your regular routine.

Training to do handstands and handstand pushups can be very rewarding. It can also be very frustrating if you don't make any progress because you aren't quite sure which exercises to do, and how exactly to do them.

How To Do A Handstand will teach you all the exercises and progressions you need to master this skill—even if you've never attempted a handstand before in your life. You'll have full explanations along with pictures depicting every exercise you'll use to reach your goal. All you need to do is pick up a copy and get started.

About the Author

Patrick Barrett learned how to do a handstand during high school wrestling practice, and has loved this exercise ever since. His interest in fitness goes back to when he first lifted weights with his dad and older brothers as a kid.

Patrick participated in a half-dozen organized sports (most notably inline hockey and high school wrestling) until a neck injury during a wrestling match in his junior year prevented him from playing further in any contact sports.

After the injury, he developed an interest in pursuing strength and balance, particularly through bodyweight and self-taught gymnastic-type exercises--like handstands and handstand pushups, among others.

Patrick has always loved both cooking and eating food. Unsatisfied with the confusing and often contradictory nutritional advice offered by mainstream sources, Patrick searched for another way to understand human nutrition that was logical, consistent, and effective. His books on food and nutrition reflect this 'cleaner,' more intuitive and useful understanding of food and how it impacts our health.

Patrick hopes that his books will save his audience time and aggravation by finally offering practical ways to achieve their nutrition and fitness goals.
