Tuck Kiss the Hands is a great drill for anyone working on their inversions including Tuck Ups and Straddle Ups. It trains keeping the legs in tight to the chest, and moving between a Lock Off and a Tuck Inversion.
We teach this skill as part of our inversion progressions, and at first we focus on making sure students can exit with control, then scale it up so that students are working bigger ranges of motion only once they can do that with control. This drill teaches students that the foundation is at the ceiling, and to pull up to exit an inversion instead of dropping down into the legs.
