Here is Fast Friday Fitness - build on the handstands you have already been doing with Fitness Fixer.
- Do a handstand against a wall. An easy way is to stand with your back about a foot or so from a wall, crouch down and put one foot, then the other, high on the wall.
- With feet still against the wall, begin to lean your weight until you are holding yourself up on only one arm.
- Hold as long as you can. Breathe normally. Leave shoulders relaxed, not tight. Switch to the other arm.

"Sorry my video requires a lot of phone power so I had enough to snap a shot before I have to charge it.
Angle is kinda odd as it is on a "tv" with my wallet ingeniously holding it in a position so it can see me instead of the floor lol. I need to go and buy a camera.."
If you like lifting weight overhead for upper body strength, you don't need to wait to go to a gym, or to get weights or equipment.
