    WAG any families with a gymnast that works out during school hours?

    and not homeschool? curious how that works with the public school system and how you approached the schools with working it out. our coach said he knows some families (not at our gym) that make it work but need more info before going into the school and starting with the principal who isn't...

    Parents What to do when the hours are too much?

    This is more of a general question. I think dd is stressed from the number of hours in the gym. Her hours increased significantly this summer and everything was fine when there was no school. The hours are the same during the school year, but now that school has started, I think it might be...

    WAG Embarking on a hours jump - stress fracture/apophysitis prevention

    There is a group of girls at our gym who will be seeing a significant hours jump when the go back to "school schedule". (16 hours to 25 hours) The coaches are confident that the girls can handle it. With my mom hat on, I worry about sleep, school and staying healthy. With my medical hat on, I...

    MAG How many hours is the bare minimum?

    So a few weeks ago we got a schedule for the school year that had the level 6s working 12 hours in 4 week nights 530 to 830. Evidently I was the only one that moved things around to make it work because my kid want to be a 6, and I'm willing to make that happen. As a result, the schedule has...

    T&T T&T Hours

    We just got our DD's schedule for the fall. All summer it's been three days a week, 5 hours total, and I'm thrilled they'll be taking the full 5 hours into the fall as well. Practices will be 4-6:30. I don't know what to do with myself since we've moved from artistic. We won't be getting...

    Parents Hours per level?

I have a 5 y/o level 2 who trains 4 hrs during the school year, and increased to 6 hrs for the summer...I wasn't expecting the increase and i am on the fence about it, as it seems like a lot. ..but when I picked...

    VIC Limited hours steam 2017

    Hi, I was wondering if any Vic's out there have heard if the limited hrs stream (old state stream) will still exist in 2017? Lots of rumours going around our gym that it won't but can't help but wonder what would happen to all the LH girls who can't commit to the hrs for the unlimited...

    Parents Gym Regulated Hours

    Hi, Does USAG limit/regulate the amount of hours girls can train at a gym based on age/level? Or is it strictly by gym or region? I think I saw a thread a while back about this, but I wanted to see if there was any more information on this subject.

    Parents Summer practice hours

    So my DD has team tryouts at the end of May (she is on Preteam now). She's been so excited about making team! A few weeks ago I asked one of the L3 moms what summer practice was like schedule wise, and she said it was the same as during the school year. Well, I definitely asked the wrong...

    Parents Level 2 hours

    I have a 4 year old on level 2. I've seen several of y'all say your level 2 gymnasts practice more than 2 hrs/week. What's the norm? We just started this gym, and they have an excellent track record of sending girls to college on scholarship, so I know it's a good gym. Just curious about...

    MAG Another thread about hours

    curious. Parents and coaches of upper level boys, what would be minimum safe hours for training (say double backs on floor, laid out tsuks, release moves on high and p bars, etc)? What would be optimal? Primarily for boys 12-16. At what level would you consider making a kid leave the...

    Parents Ages, hours, Pre-team and TOPS

    Wow just typing out the title seemed like a mouth full but I definitely could use some advice. My DD is 5 years old, and is in an accelerated rec class. Not exactly a pre-team but on track for that hopefully later this year. About 3 weeks ago she was asked to start tops training part time (2...

    WAG Question about developmental camp (after hours)

    One of our gymmies was invited to developmental camp in August. She's young, and nervous, going with coaches, not mom. We had a group go to summer camp last month, so I was able to show her pictures of the cabins, and that's helped (she doesn't like the "unknown".) What I'm wondering, so I...

    Parents Too many hours at the gym for a 3 year old?

    My daughter started gymnastics almost a year ago with a mommy and me class,then it snowballed into moving up several times and now right after she turned three years old she started training for TOPS. They do 20 hours a week. She enjoys gymnastics a lot, has big dreams and likes going but I am...

    T&T Why so low hours in T&T?

    I am considering switching my dd from artistic to T&T, but the hours are much lower. Why is this?

    Parents Xcel - how many hours a week do your daughters practice?

    For those of you with daughters in the Xcel program - how many hours a week does your daughter have team practice? Also, what is your competition schedule like?

    WAG Hours a week for training

    Our gym only offers our girls (level 2-6) 4 hours in the gym a week. I personally think this is absurd, they are not getting the training they need. We have to pay for privates to get more time in the gym. What are the average gym hours per week for your gyms? Thanks so much!

    WAG Xcel Hours

    WAG How many hours of conditioning?

    I'm just curious if there's a rough ratio of how many hours of conditioning to total hours in the gym? I assume it may differ depending on the level too.
