What does your typical conditioning program consist of? My daughter is a level 9 soon to be 10 gymnast, who seems to be overconditioned in some areas and not enough in others. I want to know what most other gymnasts do fro their conditioning, and when is it too much?
DD's trainer has made reccomendations for injury rehab, but her coach doesn't want to listen. Coach is stuck in her old patterns, and focuses only on upper body and core conditioning. DD is frustrated with her leg strength and power, but has very very muscular upper body and core.
It would be interesting to know what other gymnasts and coaches do for conditioning? Do you keep the same program over and over, do you build in a conditioning cycle? Do you work certain areas , or try to get them all? What kind of reps do you do? how many? Is your program the same for all levels or tailored for each level?
Thanks for any input
