    WAG front tuck, round off backhand spring, and long hang pullover drills

    I’m very close to to my front tuck and I’m landing them in a squat inconsistently onto a mat ground level in the pit, but what are some good drills I can set up, preferably on rod or normal floor, I don’t like doing it on tramp because I over rotate and so I don’t punch as hard and then when I...

    Parents Pullover and backwards roll problems

    My 5 year old is in a preteam development group and she is the only one in her group that does not have a backwards roll on the floor and she’s only gotten her pullover a few times. She’s frustrated!! She has beautiful form on handstand and cartwheels (idk if that matters). I’m not sure if...

    Pullover help!!

    I started quite late at Gymnastics (I began at age 11) and have been in it for almost a year. One skill I need to move up is my Pullover. I can only seem to get my knees to the bar before falling. I've tried everything and I need some advice! Thanks

    Parents Pullover advice

    DD (3) has been at her new gym for about 4 months and there is a lot of pressure on her to get a pullover. A little backstory- at her old gym they were really reckless with the kids, having them do stuff they weren't ready for, not supervising the kids on the equipment, and while the teachers...

    Parents pull over

    My dd has been trying real hard to do a pull over on the bars. She has practice pull ups and getting her strength. I was watching her at the playground and she was on the rings doing something like a pull over but no bar. She will pull herself up on rings and flip over backwards. I don't...

    WAG Chin-Up Pullover Help

    Hi all! I'm really struggling to get a chin-up pullover and don't know what else to do in terms of conditioning or drills. I've scoured YouTube for additional drills, but the drills/conditioning I found and that were given to me in practice are now easy and the chinup pullover (or even just a...

    WAG Is more strength required for a MC and FHC than a pullover?

    DD (7.5) can do a good chin-up pullover but is struggling to get other level 3 bar skills. Is it a strength thing for MC and FHC? Or is it just about timing, etc? I am wondering if privates are likely to help (she wants to make team and it's getting down to the wire) or if it's likely that...

    WAG Help with pullover on bars

    Hi, my daughter is a youngster. She is having issues with the pullover on bars. She can do the actual pullover part (most of the time), but then she just stops and can't fully finish the skill by pulling up into a support. So basically her tummy rests on the bar and she can't 'sit up' and finish...

    Parents Pullover on metal bar but not wooden bar?

    DD started doing pullovers on the metal bar about a week ago -so it's a very new skill for her. She is doing it properly -chin up and legs over. She's not kicking off the floor for it. She claims that she can't do it on the regular bar because it's too big and her hands slip off. I am...

    WAG Can someone tell me what a "hollow pullover" is?

    My daughter is L4. She said yesterday they are working on something on the bars that she can't do yet, I believe she called it a hollow pullover (maybe a hollow pullup?). I asked her what it was , but since she was frustrated, I never got the answer. I did find out it's strength related so she...

    WAG Question about pullover

    My newly 5yo dd is working pullovers in her class - not the long hang kind (I think that's what they're called), but the kids are doing them on their own while standing with the bar at about their foreheads. I've noticed that dd always gets her legs up and over but then frequently gets stuck in...

    Parents Still no pullover at 7? Will it ever come?

    My DD just turned 7 and appears no closer to a pullover than she was when she first started gymnastics at age 5.5. When she started gymnastics she very quickly advanced through all of the beginning non-bar skills and I was told that she was a good candidate for pre team. She has been on pre...

    My youngest dd got her pullover today (from only having tiptoes on the floor), she had to pull up and the lift her knees over, she did it a couple of times, she is also working on her back hip circle and is close to doing one on her own. Dd is also improving her straddle dismount and is know...

    Pullover

    Help! I've been working on getting my pullover on bars for awhile now without running into it. I can get my hips to the bar, but I get stuck upside down. Are there any drills I can do at home to make this skill easier for me? I know it's a basic skill, but everybody has to start somewhere...

    Parents preteam without pullover?

    My daugher (age 6) was recently invited to join a preteam at a gym that we had been trying out. We are considering it -we love the gym and she'd love to be on a preteam -but it's less convenient than the other gym that we have been going to. I'd love to get her on the preteam at her regular...

    Coaches Memory Games for Toddlers and pullover drills??

    Lately I've been teaching "off-sites." Our gym sends coaches to community centers around the area to teach classes and we generally bring our own equipment. My classes are parent-tot, preschool, kindergarten, and youth. I really want the little ones to learn their tuck, pike, straddle, lunge...
