How to perform Tuck Ice Cream Maker
- Grip the pull-up bar overhand at about shoulder width and bring your knees toward your chest.
- Pull up into a bent-arm position with your chin near bar height, keeping the legs tucked.
- As you extend your elbows, rotate your hips upward until your back is roughly horizontal in a tuck front lever.
- Reverse the movement by bending your elbows and pulling your chest back toward the bar as the hips rotate downward.
- Keep the tucked shape through the transition rather than kicking the legs or swinging for momentum.
- Continue smoothly between the two positions, then lower to a hang and place your feet down under control.
