My daughter is 12, just started at a new gym and she was working out with the level 7's for the last three months. She has a weakness on bars, she never uptrained giants on strap bar before at her former gym. Everyone on her team has giants, even the level 5 and 6 kids have them on the strap bar already. She has yet to even try them. I was wondering if other things have to be accomplished first before a coach can trust someone to try them on strap bar, or is it up to the child wanting to try them? She was just notified that instead of being placed on level 7 like they told her she would, they are putting her on optional lev 6 until she makes her giants. her coach seems to think she can get her to do the giants over the summer, but i know that it will take her a long time until that happens. right now she is working free hips, kip straddle cast hs, sole circles, and flyaways. I am wondering why they havent even started strap bar giants, its like they are skipping over her and allowing everyone else to do them. I dont have knowledge regarding this so i wanted to ask you experienced coaches.
thx for your time.
