Gymnastics – optimal number of training hours
All coaches agree there’s never enough time to include everything they want in any training plan.
We need to set priorities.
And not waste time.
GAGE is one club I’d highlight as having very efficient training.
I’m hopeful that COVID-19 reset results in many Gyms reducing training hours. Setting more modest, achievable goals. Goals less performance / ranking based, more personal development.
Injuries reduce the number of effective training hours. Fewer injuries over the career = more effective hours.
… but to answer the question, I’ve always admired Shawn Johnson’s plan. She trained maximum 24 hours / week during High School with one training / day. And became the best gymnast in the world.
If your goal is not to become one of the best gymnasts in the world, training hours should be fewer than 24 / week.
Aimee posted Simone’s hours on Twitter.
Keith Russell often talks about finding the best coach / hour.
With less training time, less equipment, who’s the best coach?

new film – Perfect 10
Blythe linked to a new movie that opened August 7th featuring a teenager who’s a gymnast.
Adult themes and language.
By the looks of the trailer it won’t be of any particular interest to coaches.
National Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Children
Yes. That’s a thing.
And they will be providing a free dedicated helpline that will support with concerns of abuse in British Gymnastics and other sports.
The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children has joined forces with the British Athletes Commission to provide free, confidential support and guidance to anyone involved with gymnastics who has safeguarding concerns …
British Athletes Commission members can continue raise concerns directly with the BAC Athlete Support team via support@britishathletes.org.
