What are the advantages of handstand? 1 Promote blood circulation, reduce leg fat and keep fit.
Inverted head can promote blood return, especially for women, which increases the pelvic blood supply, brings more nutrition to the small abdomen, contributes to the metabolism of organs in the pelvic cavity, and is of great benefit to the body!
Handstand can not only make people more fit, but also effectively reduce facial wrinkles and delay aging.
Handstand is more helpful to improve people's intelligence and reaction ability. People's intelligence level and reaction speed are determined by the brain, and handstand can increase the blood supply of the brain and the sense of superiority in various situations.
Skills of leg handstand
The body is upright, the left foot steps forward about 60 cm, and the knees naturally bend. Put your hands on the ground and the achilles tendon of your right foot should be fully extended.
Landing on the top of your head, with your left leg straight back and your legs together.

What are the advantages of handstand? 2. Improve intelligence and responsiveness.
People's intelligence level and reaction ability are determined by the brain, and handstand can increase the blood supply of the brain and the sense of superiority in various situations.
Improve blood circulation
When walking upright, the direction of blood circulation changes from horizontal to vertical, which is more likely to cause insufficient blood supply to the brain. Moreover, in modern society, there are more and more sedentary people, which leads to poor blood circulation and easy dizziness. The blood circulation direction of people who stand upside down changes, which improves the blood supply to the brain and promotes the development of the brain.
Relieve muscle fatigue
When standing upside down, the muscles stretch and relax, which helps to relieve the muscle tension of neck, shoulders, back and waist caused by gravity.
Increase muscle strength
When standing upside down, the whole body weight is supported by the upper limbs, and the deltoid, biceps brachii and triceps brachii can be well exercised, and the muscle strength can also be strengthened.
Adjust internal organs
When walking on one's own feet, one's heart and stomach move downward under the action of gravity. It causes many gastrointestinal and cardiac organs to droop, causes fat to deposit on the abdomen and thighs, and produces waist circumference and abdominal obesity. In the case of handstand, the internal organs get gravity and reverse action, which improves the drooping condition.
Relieve spinal discomfort
By using the natural traction and stretching effect of gravity on human body, the long-term oppressed spine can be relaxed, the growth and regeneration of intervertebral discs can be promoted, the elasticity can be restored, the flexibility of the spine can be enhanced, diseases caused by various spinal diseases can be prevented and cured, and the pain can be relieved.
You can lose weight.
To achieve the handstand standard, the legs and upper body need to be in a straight line. In this process, hands, waist and legs need to work together to maintain body balance. This process can also consume waist and leg fat and effectively improve body shape.
Exercise balance ability
Handstand needs relative balance, so it is very effective to exercise balance ability. In addition, the balance ability is controlled by the cerebellum, so it can also play the role of exercising the cerebellum.
Improve body immunity
The lymphatic system is very important for the normal operation of the body. Lymphocytes are the "scavengers" of toxins in the body. They wander around the body and transport the toxins they encounter to lymph nodes and remove them. Muscle tension and gravity help lymphocytes move in the body. When the human body is upside down, lymphocytes will pass through some parts of the body (such as the lungs) more easily and quickly.
Help the body relax.
Handstand has a good relaxing effect on the body. In handstand, the parasympathetic nervous system is activated, which helps to calm the body and mind.
