This is my second posted tip for gymnastics so far. I decided to make tips on a front pull-over, which, so far, is my personal favorite trick on the bars. A front pull-over is an intermediate skill which takes a lot of time and practice before a gymnast has enough strength to complete it. I hope you find my tips useful, and if you do, please COMMENT. I've said before and I'll say it again: If you have any professional experience in gymnastics, please comment. I could use some tips of my own.
Step 2
Front Support position
Start by gripping your bar. The bar should not be so high that you have to push up into a front support to firmly grasp it. It should be about as high as your chest.
Drop down and hang from the bar, but lift your feet up, so your body should make an L shape.
Swing, while remaining in the L shape, and you should be able to swing yourself hard enough to where your hips (remember to keep that L shape) land on the bar. Then, straighten yourself out. You should be ending in a front support position.
Congrats! If you did this the right way, you just completed your first front pullover!
