So my dd is determined to get her bail on bars, any specific (safe) drills and exercises she can do at home? She has a floor bar to work on Pirouettes.

No idea if you have all of the equipment, but that is all i could think of (i think instead of a barrel you could use a yoga ball and every not too high bar should work)
Not arguing, dd was wanting not me. Any specific conditioning? I would rather get good advice here, than her googling drills, and seeing something like the above, and wanting to figure out a way to do that at home.Please do nothing at home, just be a parent

If she wants it, she should ask her coaches. If they want her doing something at home, they'll tell her. It's a hard enough skill without having to overcome whatever bad habits were picked up from trying something at home.Not arguing, dd was wanting not me. Any specific conditioning?

Yikes, not what a wanted to hearIf she wants it, she should ask her coaches. If they want her doing something at home, they'll tell her. It's a hard enough skill without having to overcome whatever bad habits were picked up from trying something at home.
My daughter broke her thumb twice in her first season of doing that skill. I wouldn't mess around on my own with that one.
Great advise, this is something she can do. Thank you.I think that visualization would be a great thing to work on at home. It could help build her confidence and mental game. My DD works on this a lot and she says it really works for her- especially when working on things that are new or a bit scary. She also does it during meets to help her relax.
Why is everyone so quick to just jump to not at home, leave it in the gym etc? I am asking for simple things she can work on, not full blown drills and equipment that needs spotting and corrections. Anyway, had a minute last night with her coach, and she said dd asked her about it, and she is to be working shoulder strength and shoulder flexibility, and core strength, handstand work on the floor bar, and something else that I have no idea what she meant - knee handstands -So my point on this is, it is totally a skill to be attempted and perfected in a gym with proper spotting and coaching, not in the home.
