Can any of you do a backflip?
I can't, but always thought it was cool when I was younger. Is this something everyone can work towards?
>inb4 useless movement
yes, we lift to show off
I do backflips every day dude, I consider it core.

You just have to go for it man, if you can squat 2pl8 and are less than 25% body fat you can definently do it if you actually commit.

Throw your arms up really hard and drive up with your knees, throw your head back so you can see your landing, you got this.

i've been thinking about backflips/frontflips/flips in general for, like, a week since i need to distract myself from finals.
i figure i'm light enough with a high strength:weight ratio. it should be fucking cake for me to do a flip.
i think the other anon is right. you just have to commit to it. learning the spot your landing and landing on your feet consistently will take some practice but the actual flipping part of it should be simple.
report back with results.

Really easy.
Works core.
Go to a cheer gym and ask a bro to teach you.
Natural athletes can do it within an hour.
