Hi folks,
Admittedly a random first post, but I have been training gymnastics for some time now.
As I have recently been working on planches, I noticed something when watching a music video on television the other day.
It starts at 3:30. Is it just me or does this not look right? Aren't his hands not far enough back towards his hips/feet to balance him? It also doesn't look like he is straining at all. I know he would be very strong, but I don't know if he would be strong enough for the tension not to show like that. It also doesn't look as though his foot is dragging/resting on the "glass" box.
I know this is a little strange of a topic, but I thought it might be an interesting discussion!
Cheers,
Mike.
