Women Front layout front tuck

[gymfan1]

Where are your arms supposed to be in a front layout front tuck? My coach tells me to never bring them up but I don’t understand how I’m supposed to front tuck out of the front layout with my arms down. Any tips?

It kind of depends on the technique you are using. If your fornt layout is more like a forward whip, your arms should be coming kind of up and around for the throw into the front tuck. You will definitely need to use your arms-especially if you wnat to upgrade the tuck. I would suggest asking your coach for clarification.
