“I can guarantee you we will see more of these (handstand walks) in the future.” These are the words of Dave Castro, the mind behind the CrossFit Games, in an interview with Rory Mckernan during the last CrossFit Invitational.

Dave implemented an obstacle course during the Invitational, which surprised a lot of competitors. But the athletes are getting better, and his imagination must figure out ways to demand more. The exercise is challenging, sure, but not for everyone. Alec Smith is looking relaxed and natural doing these handstand walks since, as he said, they are all the rage right now.

Since handstand walk obstacle courses are all the rage nowadays ?
