Summer weight program

I have sent out an e-mail to all gymnasts with the summer weight program. Remember if your school has a program, you should do the program your weight coach has designed.

There is a website called Couch Gymnast that has done a series on floor routines. Here is one of my favorites.

Sweet handspring full

This vault is from my generation, but it still is a great example of how a handspring full should be done.


Also, here is UCLA's (one of my favorite college gym team's) end of season video. It is 11 minutes, but there is some great gymnastics.


I promise the summer weight program is coming. I will either post here or e-mail it to everyone, or both.
