Peer reviewedSim, Laura J. – Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, 1985
The key to successful uneven parallel bar routines lies in the rhythm and continuity of movement which is ensured through the element of swing. Diagrams are offered to help illustrate how the biomechanical principles of torque and momentum are essential to learning and developing the mechanics of swing. (DF)
