Bars A-Z Tony Retrosi Lecture
- 7. Level 3-10
Editor's Notes
- Uneven bars in the USA has become almost a necessary evil. Where most clubs will just do the bare minimum on bars to get by. There is very little innovation within the USA. Where the Chinese, French and even the Italians strive to lead the way on bars. The US seems to be happy to just not lose too badly on bars and make up for it on other events. A few years ago it was vault and the National Team took anyone and everyone that could do a yurchenko double full. Now the US has a number of great vaulters. We certainly can not go backward on vault but we MUST move forward on bars.
- โ to the codeโ- The code changes, keep your options open. It really affects other events more than bars.
- Once these skills are mastered in a safe way the doors are open for the gymnast to reach for future skills. Here is a quick list of drills and lead ups that will best prepare a gymnast for the future
- I am a big believer in the USAG system. Just remember- It doesnโt do it all. The USAG program is a great MAP but like most maps it only shows the BIGGEST CITIES. There are a lot of small towns and villages along the way that you need to visit. This is a tour of those small towns.
- Grip push ups, Feet on floor, feet on mat, on rope for planche swing Spot handstands on bar initially, progress to doing them against wall then with feet under bar
- For front hip circles Set p.bars so athlete can fall forward with body straight.
- Someone more patient than me could do an entire lecture on the cast handstand. Bottom line is that I havenโt really found a better way than just spotting a lot. Spot them when they are young AND small!
