    @dunno here my comments: "if you are truly a coach, under NO circumstances should you be promoting backyard trampolines or tramp park trampolines. the majority of you have NO idea what is taking place. look for another article soon that i will post." Actually I talk to the parents at the gym...

    We are still off topic (oh why!). Tumbelina82 you clearly do not understand what I'm try to accomplish with the books I have written. Every year when I start new classes, I always have a group of kids that have done like 1000 jumps with incorrect techniques on very basic elements like: a...

    ok,. it seems there are some mix feelings about the limber skills, but it looks like all agree that it is something that is worked on after the gymnast has mastered the walkover. @dunno ,.. I don't understand your comment? what about "The Garden Trampoline"? regards, Peter

    Coaches Stretches names and muscles affected.

    I found that many gyms have different names for the same stretches. I also found that many websites state incorrect muscles affected by a stretch. I would love to hear your opinion. I have create a page with a gallery of stretches which are all numbered. I would like to hear what you think the...

    The parallel bars

    I created another little comic strip. Was a little hard to write the text to make the point that both are parallel. If anybody has any suggestions to what the text bubbles should be then please tell me and I might changed them.

    Coaches Late Pick Up

    Hi All, just wanted to add my two cents. I have the same problem at my gym (but not so much early drop offs)... I have gymnasts that come late and sometimes parents that are 20-30 minutes late to pick-up. I found the best solution is not to penalize them with fines or extra charges, but to...
