So just curious as to how many hours elite level gymnasts (jr and senior elite, Developmental Team athletes, etc) are training per week
I know it's done in America too but I can honestly say I don't understand it.It can be done without modified schedules. We do have gymnasts who fit the 36 hour training week in around a full school schedule.
Our schools generally run from 9:00AM-3:00PM, so the kids might do morning training from 6:30-8:30AM or 6:15-8:15PM, and then train after school from say 3:30-7:30PM, they do 6 hours a day in the gym and a full school sh duke and then 6 hours on Saturdays, so they get in 36 hours a week.
Our gym's in house homeschool has a teacher/facilitator who oversees the group to make sure they are all on track with their individualized curriculum.We have the opposite. Some gyms have school rooms in them to avoid the back and forth. Simone's gym actively promotes their hybrid school with a teacher and individualized curriculum. They have also posted pictures of the school group measuring the pitts to determine volume etc.
can someone weigh in on the benefits of having gymnasts train a morning AND an afternoon schedule? Are they doing it to rest their bodies so that all of the hours aren't at once? Are they doing it to have the gym to themselves and a more focused training session? All of the above and more? Just curious. Thanks!~
