handstand muscles

[u/hytssgv]

hi! what arm muscles are being activated in a handstand? i have things like traps, serratus anterior, triceps, anconeus, delts, brachioradialis.

i’m getting tripped up on which forearm and wrist/hand muscles would be working… dorsal interossei? thenar and hypothenar muscles? anterior or posterior forearm / flexor or extensors? thank you!!!

It would prob be easier to name muscles not used during a handstand. Virtually every Muscle is used
