New All Access with Olympia Gymnastics in Shelby Township Michigan. This workout was recorded back in September a few days before our Region 5 High Tech Camp. In this workout, Owner and Head Coach, Jordyn Childers focus on the positive. She says Find the good in everything and put energy into what you want more of. She also makes sure she has a drill after most turns to reinforce what the focus at the current training stage. The athletes are at different stages in their bars training and you see that in the workout. Coach Deanna Sigler (coaches beam and floor) has a yearly plan that she sticks to that helps prep the athletes for success. The floor circuit in this workout is a pre-routine stage mixing uphill work with drills and tumble sets on the rod floor. Beam is Deanna’s speciality and her complexes are always very good plus she has some drills that help focus on consistency in dismounts that are a must see.

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
