This video will give you some tips on how to introduce the chin up pullover into your training routine.
For a gymnast, the chin up pullover is one of the first skills learnt on the bars. It is often quite easy to learn this as a child, becoming more challenging as an adult. The above video will give you some tips on how to introduce the chin up pullover into your training.
To begin with you will need to develop a strong L-sit chin up by practicing repetitions as well as using static holds.
Once this is mastered, move onto the ice cream maker, which is a transition from the pull up to a front lever. If needed, use a spotter to help.
When you are ready, try to put the pieces together. Complete the chin up, go through a portion of an ice cream maker, and then pull your body around the bar finishing in a front support.
Try to practice single reps in your gymnastics skill sessions and then gradually build them into your gymnastics workouts during your training.
