Gymnastics Strength Programs - 5 Must Have Pieces for High Performance

Today’s podcast is a lecture I gave to the Nevada Club Congress that was hosted by Cassie Rice at her gymnastics club. I was asked to talk about strength and conditioning ideas and principles to help make a high-performing and effective gymnastic strength program. I break down having a plan, the need to have a well-balanced program of different movement patterns, how many sets and reps of each exercise, and having a strong relationship with strength and a good Cultural Foundation to go behind what you're doing.


We DISCUSS; common strength questions all gymnastic coaches have.

Periodization, what is it, and how to use it.
 
Examples of an out off-season strength programs.
 
What you need to do to achieve a balanced program.
 
The importance of having a specific goal/focus to your strength program.
 
Individualization, the key to success.

ALSO…

How to develop a strong culture and relationship with strength and conditioning in your gym.
