Cast to Handstand – teaching the lean over the bar

19 March 2010 No Comment

I just read Bart’s latest post. He’s right, when working on Cast to Handstand, my gymnasts definitely have a fear of leaning their body weight over the bar. Funnily enough I just did this exact spotting method with my girls this evening before seeing the video! It really is a great way to help gymnasts learn to control their body shape in handstand on the bar.

Watch it below or on YouTube. Thanks Bart!
