Kids also learn physical moves much faster. I only know a couple of adults that have learned how to handstand as adults and even then, they were already fit or had good strength to weight ratios. Still took a long time to get a good looking hold.

I’ve seen kids just pick it up and start walking and hopping with control in weeks.

I can still do a handstand, with difficulty, but I can do it. To be fair, it was always with difficulty, it takes a few tries.

I was 14/15 when I could do it.

You need to get it right for 1 second to call it a handstand IMO

I don’t know your background, but this reads like the mentality that gives a lot of “bro” workout communities a reputation for being irresponsible and injury prone.

Call it a handstand when you can do a handstand, and work your way up to it humbly. Your joints will thank you.

I don't think many people would call that a handstand. Or at least, if you do then the definition is so wide as to be useless. There's no balance at all involved for 1 sec, just luck.

Just kick up with the right amount of force and you’ll float for a few seconds. That can be achieved with luck.

It’s ok to not be good at everything.
