A member asked:
Anytime i attempt to do handstand push-ups while working out i get an immediate headache, why is that? i seem to be the only one in my class.

Gravity: I suspect the effects of gravity are causing blood to pool in your head when you are upside down. Your body may be sending you a message that handstands are not the best idea.

Headache: This is due to the increased blood flow to the brain and the brain attempting to control that flow. Its quite normal.
