Training Thursday brings you this beam side station that can help with the stability of the landing of flight series and step out skills on beam. You need panel mat, 1/2 of a roller, and a bosu ball and you are good to go. EuroStars team director Anna breaks down the drill and shows some of the fixes that can be helpful when taking the landing up to the balance beam
We went All Access for the first time with EuroStars Gymnastics in Plymouth Michigan. This workout features their Level 8-10’s from back in the middle of September in their transition from summer training into fall preseason training. We get some basic tumbling, beam basics and skill routines, a cool vault running drill from my former club teammate and fellow Michigan gymnastics Jamie Hertza. EuroStars has all the forms of vaults and it’s interesting to listen to the different types of corrections (even more in the members full version of this workout). The workout finishes with some spotted bar basics and a skill perfection training day that coach Anna has them due at least once a week while building those competition routines.
Full Workout (37+ minutes) and a soon to come bonus Conditioning and Body Shaping Video only for our Patreon and YouTube All Access Members

We go All Access with Level 9 and 10’s from BIG Gymnastics in Burr Ridge, Illinois as they prep for the 2026 competition season. In this work, you get to see all four events with each having its own prep work for meet warm-ups and routine construction. Owner and Head Coach Kara Reid is easing her athletes into double salto passes on the floor with air mat tumbling while still keeping the bigger tumbling passes in the resi. She has a nice circuit complex they use to both train the skills and get the necessary conditioning done at the same time. On bars, Coach Mike Hauser has started to incorporate meet warm-ups into the bar plan as they begin doing overlapping combos and 1/2 routines. This bars rotation is very detailed and lots of great coaching info here. On beam Kara has a team related assignment which features a partner dismount stick assignment. Did Karl and James get it done???? Last on vault, Mike has lots of different vaults going on. They do a lot of pre-hab during vault and you can see some of that in the background.
