bad technique on double tuck

coach Rick — Thu, 24 May 2012 09:01:01 +0000

Why do so many female gymnasts not grip the shins on double tuck?

Enus Mariani

For me this is an inferior technique. If she cannot fix it, do double pike instead. Her hands are correctly positioned for that.

Karen Cockburn’s training program

How did the triple Olympic medalist stay on top through 4 Trampoline Olympics?

‘eat, sleep, train’

… My workout

“I work out six days a week in the afternoons or evenings, four hours a day, with one day off for recovery. Some of the work is trampoline and technical tricks with video analysis, with a coach teaching us form and improving our routines.

“I do short sprints on the bike, and weight training. I focus on lower body for power to weight ratio. Now I’m in a force phase, so I’m lifting heavy weights. Yesterday I squatted 305 pounds – I weigh 120 pounds. You need strong legs to get height on the trampoline because we’re going up to 18 feet in the air.

I’m judged on three elements out of 10: form, difficulty and then “flight time,” so power-to-body-weight ratio is important to get height.

“I do ballet once a week to help with form and posture and hot yoga twice a week to stretch me out and de-stress; I like the sweat and the heat.” …
