Dynamic Warmup and Flexibility Training
In “Dynamic Warmup and Flexibility Training,” gymnasts of all levels and ages will learn a pre-competition and pre-practice warmup that will prepare every muscle for the demands of gymnastics. There are over thirty exercises to choose from, and detailed instruction of technique is provided for each exercise. Gone are the days of static stretching- dynamic exercise has proven to be the most effective way to increase mobility. The exercises can even be performed on a daily basis, even if you're not a gymnast! What are the benefits of dynamic exercise?
- increased blood flow to muscles and joints
- improved mobility
- significantly reduced risk of injury by taking each muscle and joint through its full range of motion
Dynamic stretching has revolutionized the fitness world and the way we stretch. This video is the perfect complement to any GymnasticStrong video to complete conditioning program. You’ll never want to do static stretches before competing or practicing again! GymnasticStrong does provide instruction of several static stretches at the end of this video to be used as a cool down, and the warmup also includes foam roll self-massage and muscle warmup exercises.
Competitive and Elite Strength and Conditioning

The exercises can be progressed from a skilled to highly advanced level for the elite competitive gymnast with the use of weights, sport cords, foam rolls, TRX straps, and sliding discs. The challenge levels are endless, and you choose how fast or slow you progress, according to your ability and schedule!You will also receive a written exercise progression for each exercise.
Youth Strength and Stability Training
A developing young gymnast does not naturally possess the balance, coordination, strength, and movement patterns necessary for the mastery of basic gymnastic skills. "Youth Strength and Stability Training" has all of the tools to improve upon these areas to become a better gymnast and athlete.
In this video a gymnast is given three different circuits, each 25-40 minutes in length, depending on the repetitions and sets the gymnast chooses to complete. The first circuit, for gymnasts age 7-8, teaches beginning core and strengthening exercises, and movement patterns necessary for an athlete to progress through the beginning gymnastic levels. Two ‘Developing Youth’ circuits, for gymnasts ages 8-10, will help a gymnast build core stability and balance, improve body awareness, and build a strong foundation for future gymnastic skills on each apparatus. Each exercise clip includes detailed demonstration and instruction of proper body mechanics and technique. The exercises in this video range from simple to moderately difficult, depending on the gymnast’s skill level, and each exercise is progressed as the gymnast becomes stronger. You choose the speed of your progressions according to your comfort level.
