Coach Rick,

You might be interested in reviewing my new book, “Back Handsprings: The Secret Techniques.”

Send me an email if you are interested.

Biomechanics of women’s gymnastics by Gerald S. George is an amazing book, even though it was published over 25 years ago. I do wish that it would be updated for today’s skills. But for good, core basics, this book is an AMAZING reference. Highly recommended!
