01 / Steps
How to do it
Perform a bar swing.
As you come to the back, bring your knees to your chest.
Release the bar and rotate until you are facing away from it.
The rotation should begin a bit before releasing the bar to make it smooth.
Do it towards the side that comes more naturally to you and land with your legs together, without getting too far away from the bar.
