A Back Handspring (Descriptive Essay)
A Back Handspring
Back Handspring is an acrobatic, basic building block for many gymnastics or cheer-leading
routines, which begins from a stationary standing position, then a complete
revolution of the body by lunging headfirst from an upright position into an inverted
vertical position and then pushing off from the floor with the hands so as to
leap back to an upright position end it, or perform another handspring, but you
should already have built up your upper body strength, especially in your arms
and shoulders, and you should be comfortable doing a back-bend, hand stand, and
back walkover. Back Handspring is performed in various physical activities,
including Acro dance, cheer-leading and gymnastics, to do a back handspring,

mat so you get a comfortable going backwards and to prevent injury.

doing a back-bend or curl up into a ball on the floor, your ankles by range of
motion, and to stretch your wrists, get on your knees and place your hands on
the ground palms-down, with the fingers pointed at you. Then, pull back on your
arms to feel a deep stretch in your wrists, after you stretch your wrists, roll
them clockwise and counterclockwise five times each.

confidence, start off on a trampoline or mat and have an experienced gymnast watching
you, this way, you can gain your confidence and get over the fear, few days and
you will be ready to go and do it on any harder surface.
