I've joined a parkour gym and straight up comically landed on my head doing a backflip. Like I'm talking landed, slow pause with a rigid body, and then face planted. Its painful while in the pose but you recover pretty quick. Its a lot less scary after you've experienced that
@@MollyPaterson252 a back tuck is a backflip, it is called “Back tuck” in cheerleading i think. A back handspring is a type of backflip but you have to bounce on your hands :)
I recently learned how to backflip at a trampoline park where a staff member let me reserve the foam pit to practice and for him to coach me. I learned in less than 30 minutes and I moved from the foam pit to trampolines to normal ground. He was super chill and now we're good friends.
Thats what concerns me, all their backflips end with them flat on the ground. Its all fun and games on a cushioned floor but life is hardly soft and padded
Ur not wrong, i can do most flips, like fronts flips, side flips, backflips, and many 360/twist flips, and i can confirm backflips were the easiest to learn just scary tho
@@Nqriiyeah I aslo agree. People always think front flips are easy because it's not as scary and they are just doing a forwards roll in the air. But physically, backflips are wayy easier. They are just harder mentally.
I wish I had this technique back when I was learning gymnastics. I had no skill, strength, or flexibility. But these muscle memory exercises would help tremendously!
@@frankdux5693Wasting time? it is essential to have a flexible body first. You first need to train how to control your body for several weeks and even months then you could come to fighting. -coming from a Judo player.
@@GHOSTRIDER-nu6fb complete waste of time. You're never going to be doing back flips in a fight. This isn't a film. Wasting time learning stuff that's completely pointless. This is part of the reason why the majority of people who train in these eastern martial arts can't actually fight to save their lives.
@@frankdux5693 I am not talking about using backflips in a fight, it's about building flexibility. If you are able to do Back flips properly you would be very agile and that will result in your advantage.
bruh, with this training i could do backflip on trampoline within a day. I've never fucked with backflips. I learnt front flip kinda the same way as in this video, only problem is that it took months
I remember when i done gymnastics I started at 7 and I remember when my dad picked me up and I as only a few hours into learning my back flip when my instructor saw my dad she said watch this "KELLY.....REMEMBER BUILD UP YOUR SPEED AND HIT THAT SPRING BOAR the whole class was watching I was so nervous nut as soon as I started running I absolutely nailed the flip and landed two feet the whole class just started cheering .....think that was one of the times my dad looked proud 😅💙🏴
Now that is proper awesome. When you see the technique it seems so self explanatory but it's not and that's why this is awesome. I love fitness of all kinds and this is one of the best i've ever seen. Bravo Teacher!
@@not_tadashi6112that’s is just not even close to true. The order is white, yellow, green, blue, purple, red, brown, black. And then you have different degrees of black or your dan level
@@THEELEMENTKINGyou don't know which martial art this is though, the rankings are different for every martial art taekwondo doesn't have purple im pretty sure
My gymnastic teacher was one of the best out there. She pushed us to our limits and made us great gymnasts. I was so scared to do a back hand spring on my own but she knew I could do it so she took me out on the sidewalk and made me do it there. I was like 7 or 8 when this happened
@@meghanmarcussen2484 I know but I done the same routine and it made me do a backflip and also when you're going into a back handspring to conquer your fear of going upside down and doing a backflip and once you do a back handspring a couple of times then you can do a backflip that's how I learned
to those commenting “That’s a back handspring not a backflip” or “What a backflip” Would you like to be rolled under that? Would you like that thing to roll on your whole body? Exactly, So go away with your negativity and keep it in your mind and not for people. No one likes a hater
That's awesome! I never learned or taught backflips myself, but I used to teach Taekwondo years ago, and this is the same way that I'd teach things like the spinning roundhouse kick or the hook kick. Break the technique down into tiny steps, and have the students repeat the tiny steps over and over until they were confident enough to move on to the next step. Love this!
Gymnastics Coach here: While much of the fear of doing a backflip and backhand spring are the same, the moves are very different in their approach. Back tucks (backflip, knees bent) require height in order to successfully complete the rotation. The set up is kinda like doing a vertical jump. Back handspring requires distance in order to generate power for the rebound. The set up is kind of like sitting into a chair.
This is so good! I’ve always been terrified of doing flips because I get so disoriented, but I think if I’d been taught this way, it would have been hundreds of times more effective.
For everyone saying it's a "backhand spring" you're absolutely correct! Have a medal. In all seriousness tho, this is not the full length of the video. For gymnasts backhand springs is a basic requirement before learning backflips, and the best way to learn how to go over your head.
You can learn a back hand spring in a day or a few. Its mostly about getting over the fear and being confident. The actually movement just takes some repition that your body gets used to
