    Home conditioning

    Does your gym give out a home conditioning programme? If so can you share it with us? I have heard this is common and I am wondering are these very basic or do they involve a lot of time and the need for supervision etc?

    Conditioning as a punishment?

    Hey everybody! I was wondering if, as a coach, you give conditioning as a punishment? I know our coach does, to the point of bringing me to tears. Do you use conditioning as a punishment? Why or why not?

    I coach a small "rec competitive" team that is about Level 4-6 in terms of skill level, but not competing USAG. By design, the team doesn't practice many hours. This is taking some getting used to in my coaching style, but this program is a great fit for certain girls and I'm enjoying it...
