However, nice surprise this morning, a Press to handstand seemed to come from nowhere, best yet, seem to be almost throwing myself forward (thus hips coming over shoulders more). Tried it again, this time trying to let my legs float up (see below) feet came up a little way and then I lost it, but definitely progress.

Press to handstand update ( Backbends on hold for a bit, over did it)
So, I've been taking a break from backbends for the last few days. Felt a bit of a twinge , knew I was over doing it but would look at one of the videos I'd taken and think I was really close to coming up and maybe just one more. Anyway nothing serious just a muscle twinge. Took a couple of days off practice altogether then a couple of standing only and Primary yesterday and today, feeling good but will give it another week or two before I drop back or try coming up again, just to be on the safe side.
