How to do it
On parallel bars, get underneath and raise one leg up to rest it on the parallel bar in front of you.
Use it as a push to rotate your entire body and pass your legs through your hands.
Right at that moment, pause for 3 seconds before continuing to rotate until you make a full turn.
Return to the starting position to complete one repetition.
