This summer I’m traveling Camp to Camp. With some coaching workshops along the way.
My favourite is Dave Adlard’s High Performance Training Camp, hosted by Inland Empire Gymnastics Association in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. It has the strongest coaching staff.
For 2012 I proposed a new outdoor rotation. Dave had some reservations, but went ahead and rented a giant wedding tent, trusting me.
He disparagingly referred to the station as “Rick’s Resort”, assuming we’d have a ton of fun, but not get all that much “real” gymnastics accomplished. 🙂
Not so. We did a good deal of quality Beam work on both Power Launch and Pro, including dismount prep.
The portable equipment, including two free standing Bars, was sponsored by Tumbl Trak.
I had multiple Floor Bar stations working towards Blind and Giant 1/1 progressions.
The highlight was using Tumbl Trak’s new Fitness Wheels on edge. We did a little Parkour cross training.
Fun and Fitness Wheels. Check this VIDEO to see how those work.
