efficiency of gymnastics training

We are much criticized, as you know.

Here’s a good idea from Al Fong:

How efficient is your team’s workout? How many turns do your gymnasts get in a 30 minute rotation? A 45 minute rotation? An hour? …

Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.

… as an example, our team doesn’t gather at the beginning end of the tramp directly opposite the resi pit landing. Instead they stand perpendicular to the resi so they can watch each other tumble, hear the coaching comments, and even help coach their fellow team mates.

Only 2 people line up at the beginning end as one is walking to line up behind them. This keeps the athletes totally concentrated on the task at hand. If everyone clumps up at the end, the line goes slower and it’s easier to be tempted to lose focus.
