I know that I may get ten different answers if I ask ten different people. I also realize that different gymnasts may require more or less and there may be advantages to both. What I’m wondering is if there is any kind of bare minimum?
For any elite coaches in our midst:
-Is there a set threshold for hours that is considered a deal breaker for working with a kid? Is it just not possible to even consider below a certain level?
-Is there flexibility in setting hours or is it more a scenario where a gym has a set elite training program and schedule and all athletes are expected to follow this?
-If a child is interested in pursuing elite at what point do you like them to join you? [Answers in terms of both age and training level would be helpful.]
Thanks!
