@BeyondOurLimits after you take off, just drop your left arm and use your hips to help get the twist around, and as you're doing that drop your other arm and wrap it around tight as well. both those should help get the full twist around :)
Somehow even the ones knowing what moment of inertia is can't relate it twisting unless shown a simple demonstration like this one :-) The change in body mass distribution over geometry initiates the rotation, after that you can amplify the rotation with with torque from swinging arms and tucking hands closer to the axis of symmetry.
I am not sure George understands all of the physics there, even if he uses complicated words ! The goal when we make a twist is not to have an asymetric shape, it's to tilt the body sideways (to transfer a part of the momentum of force to the longitudinal axis - sorry for the complicated words !). That's why you have to drop one arm sideways, it is not to have an asymetric shape, it's to tilt the body. And some people even call that twisting technique "tilt".
What a nice explanation! I like this gentleman
the hammer made it super clear!! really good explanation :)
Thank you for that very simple explanation of how this works! Fantastic
Quick, simple. Thank you so much! Can't wait to hit the gym and finally grind twisting with proper technique instead of just turning with my hips.
Thanks for the feedback. We'll see what we can do!

Great video, I loved working with George Hery, thanks for featuring him GymnasticsMinute!
excellent explanation! thank you!
liked it!
excellent demonstration
great, I've been stuck at a 1/2 twist (and a bad one at that) on the trampoline for AGES! :D
Great info in this one. Thanks.
I loved the video, the girl doing the example is extremely talented!!!
That isn't a girl

Awesome information ! I hope it helped me:)
Great explanation!
That was excellent!! Please do more on concepts like torque etc.
lucky to have him be my coach
Great sir 👌
Thank you sooo much for explaining that, twists confuse me so bad! =0
that was a cool way to teach a twist. =)
Thank u so much
that was very interesting!
Which direction did he twist when he raised his right arm?
Calvin Sun left side
He said gymnastics moment instead of minute at the end hahaha

Big words
Why does he randomly have a hammer?
Thanks for the video!
Check out my books on the science and math of gymnastics!
