Hi,
I'm currently writing books about gymnastics. Right now, I'm working on three books "Shoulder Flexibility", "Back Walkover" and "Front Walkover". I'm about 90% done with all three books.
I base my books on my own experience as a coach. I also talk to a lot of coaches about the subject at hand and watch a lot of the tutorials on youtube (some are really great, many not so).
While researching the subject about "Front Walkover" I constantly see people recommending learning the limber first. This surprises me a little, because the limber is much harder then a walkover (or is it just me?). The walkover you have a kick and push off with your foot. Whereas the limber requires a lot more flexibility to execute the skill.
I would like to hear what your opinion is about the subject of which skill should be mastered first? or perhaps even some basic drills for the front walkover and limber would be nice to hear.
You can see what books I have written here
hope to hear from some of you guys/gals in here
regards,
Peter
