Has anyone got any good drills for teaching the back gainer on floor?

Thanks for that. Very helpful.

Hoping someone out there can give me some advice. Our gym is not in a position to build an in ground pit so I have been looking at alternative solutions. Does anyone know anything about inflatable foam pits? Their pro's and con's. Or maybe air pillows? Any assistance would be appreciated.

Looking for some new games and ideas for my preschool 3-5 year olds. New games especially. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Also does anyone have some good websites for this age group?

When she can beat all the boys in a chin up contest at school.

Hi I'm looking for ideas for a group of teenage recreational boys school group that I am coaching at the moment. They are all from the special education department and have a variety of issues from behavioural to learning. There is also a large range in ability with one being able to do a...

Try to talk to your coach as well. It really helps to know if you understand what they are trying to teach you. They would probably also be more than happy to try and help you build some friendships with the other girls.

Bars is our biggest problem at the moment.

Thank you @_coachbrooke_. I think I will consider doing the same thing for this particular group. I think they are old enough to make the decision if I make sure I explain all the consequences of their decision. If I keep them back for a third year I think it might be quite disheartening and...

Any advice out there from coaches for what to do with my State Stream girls? We are a small regional club with low resources - equipment, coaches etc. and due to the distance to competitions and the low training hours our girls have in the past competed State Stream. With State Stream gone...

Thank you everyone. Replies have helped heaps.

I'm blond and female and that's my excuse for being no good with my left and my right (and twisting). ☺️ The link shows one of my gymnasts. She is just starting to twist. So in this video she twists to the right? Yes? She shortens her left side and pulls her left arm across her body. Should her...

I know there is a lot out there on twisting but I can't find the answer to my specific question (or maybe I did but couldn't see it for all the other information out there). I'm in the process of researching twisting to better understand the process. My understanding is that whether forwards...
