Handstand walk scaling drill. For folks who are having trouble with handstand walks, substitute a drill that helps them get in position. A suggestion would be 60-90s where they handstand walk to a wall. Start at a distance close enough to the wall that they can reach it. See if they can increase the distance from the wall slightly with each attempt. For folks who cannot invert fully or cannot take even one step of a handstand walk, use shoulder taps either against the wall, in box pike or pike from the floor.
