Cant get the backflip right!
I did exercises, stretches and everything but i still cant get the backflip right. Can you give me advice on what gymnasts would do? What are their stretches and exercises? Anybody could answer this question. Gymnasts preferred. =D

i have done gymnastics for eight years and i dont know if you're talking about a backflip or a backhandspring.
for a back handspring:
- practice starting in a sitting position and jumping back onto a bed.
- also try putting your hands into like the shape of a hershey kissout in front of you and lean back while watching your hand til you hit the floor and kick your legs over.
For a backflip:
- standing backflips are hard so i suggest you do a round off first if you dont know what that is then you shouldnt be doing back flips. once you have done your round off, practice jumping really high into the air, thats called a "set" when you're high in the air just flip.
- picture this: you need to jump high enough to throw a basketball and then tuck your legs in and become the basketball.
i do advise you have a coach while attempting this.
