Write an outline/script explaining the biomechanics of a back handspring. DO NOT SIMPLY DESCRIBE A TECHNIQUE. The primary aim of this project is to allow you to showcase your knowledge of biomechanics within the setting that you feel most comfortable.
1st paragraph describes the purpose of a back handspring and the mechanics used
middle paragraphs describes the mechanics of a back handspring throughout the steps of the skill (1 paragraph per Phase)
2nd paragraph explain phase one- Standing, sit, swing
3rd paragraph explain phase 2 passing through hand stand position arching back and reaching for the floor
4th paragraph explain phase 3 push off wrist and snap down
5th paragraph explain phase 4 landing phase (feet touch floor, head and torso come up)
Last paragraph summarize

inertia
Conservation of momentum
Conservation of energy
Torque
Moment of ineria
Newtons law of motion
Potential energy
center of gravity
