preparation execution variations / comments
Get into a stable position on any parallel bar using elbows and fore- arms. Keep legs hanging down. Pull legs towards chest. Keep them almost straight. At top of the motion, flex upper body slightly towards legs. Exhale. Repeat. Advanced athletes could hold some weight between their feet to increase workload. Never hyperextend back throughout motion.
