Article: There are many to choose from, such as Giphy GIF Maker and IMGUR Video to GIF, both of which can be used right in your web browser (no download necessary!) If you prefer to download an app, make sure to read lots of reviews in your device's app store. Never download and run software from a site you don't trust. The two apps mentioned can create GIFs from up to 15 seconds of online video. This is common. Most converters require that your video be uploaded to an website like Youtube or Vimeo that allows you to publicly share videos. Others, like Giphy, also allow you to upload your own video. Find a video online (or on your device if using a site like Giphy) that has anywhere from 0.5-15 seconds of movement to turn into a GIF. If you're using a video on the internet, open it in your browser. This step will be different across different apps. If you're using a video on a site like Youtube, open the video in your browser. Copy the entire URL of the video file from the address bar, then paste it into appropriate the box in the video-to-GIF converter app. The box should say something like "Paste URL here." Press Enter or click OK. If you're uploading video, find the button on the video-to-gif conversion tool (it should say something like "Browse Your Video Files") and select the desired file. Each site has different options for editing, but all will let you define a specific section of the video to convert to a GIF. In Imgur, for example, your video will appear with a slider beneath it that allows you to set a "start" and "end" point for your image. Nearly every video-to-GIF maker allows you to add some text or other flair to your GIF. Look for a button that says something like "Add Text" or "Add Caption." When you're done with the creative process, click "Create GIF" or "Save GIF" in your web app to launch the Save menu. Choose a name for your GIF and save it to your computer in a folder you'll remember later. If your GIF is over 10MB, web app converters will create a file that ends with a ".GIFV" instead of ".GIF", though you will still be able to use it as you would a normal GIF. You can test your GIF out by opening it in your web browser. Navigate to the folder where you saved the GIF and drag it right into your browser window. Or, if you're on a mobile device, browse to the file and tap it open. The animation will play instantly.

Article: Warming up your legs, ankles and back beforehand will minimize the risk of injury. If your body is not limber during a back handspring, there's a chance you won't adjust properly to the flip. Regardless of the sport you're practicing for, it's always important to give your body a bit of a warm up before the fact. Stretch and roll your wrists. This is the area that risks the most strain when you execute your back handspring, so it's a good idea to give it some extra love prior to attempting the technique. A soft surface, like yard grass,mat, or bed mattress is necessary in order to practice your back handsprings. A hard surface won't give you the cushion you need to spring back, and the risks of injury are much higher. Investing in a mat will allow you to practice your back handsprings from virtually any location. Especially starting out, many gymnasts have difficulty mustering the strength it takes to launch their bodies in a flip. A vault board will give you the extra force necessary to achieve a flip. This will allow you to focus on other facets of your technique. Using a vault board can help you to focus on improving your control, rather than putting the effort into the force of jumping itself. This is particularly helpful if you have difficulty with the initial leap. Squatting against a wall is a common way to build leg strength. Rest your back against wall, and lower your body down. This will cause a bend in your legs. Get your squat down to the point where your legs are arched at a 90 degree angle. This should cause a noticeable burn in your leg muscles. If your legs are stronger, you'll be able to leap higher, giving your back handspring greater initial force. Hold your squat for 30 seconds, then give yourself 30 seconds to rest before you attempt another rep.
