Hi everyone! Follow me on Twitter: @quincysolano

I finally got off my lazy butt and was able to put together a video on how to do a back handspring! I didn't get a chance to edit it AT ALL, however i figured it would've been better candid. Plus it takes FOREVER to do videos like this.

Don't forget there are 4 parts:

1) The Squat
2) The Swing
3) The Dive
4) The landing

Exercises that will help:
-Handstands
-Donkey Kicks
-Bridges (a stretching exercise)
-Walk overs (Front and Back)

To get over the fear of diving backwards:
-Use a trampoline
-A Hexagon Matt (the one that when you dive, it rolls over)
-Additional Matt
-A spoter
-Anything that makes you feel comfortable and allows you to get over the fear.

I'm here to help, so if you have comments complaining, please just message me. If you need additional help, I am putting up a website to hopefully answer everyone's questions.
