NEW YORK, N.Y. (CBS) — Training videos by a New York athlete are going viral on social media.

Christopher Joyce, shows off his core strength and balancing skills as he carefully maneuvers on multiple dumbbells.

Joyce originally created the handstand workouts a couple of years ago, but only recently stepped it up to the next level with the help of his mom.

He says he just wanted to do something extra for his followers, and added “something inspiring while pushing and being creative with my limits and craft so I asked my mom to wake up with me at 5 a.m. to go to the gym to roll me some dumbbells.”
