I'm very curious by nature and love to know how everything works and the whys behind everything.
At DD's old gym every level did a block of conditioning at the end of practice. It was the last 30 minutes of practice. DD's new gym does not do a block of conditioning, but spreads it out over the entire practice. They warm-up and do basic floor work with some conditioning like V-ups, press handstands etc at the beginning of practice. Then as they rotate to their events they do conditioning for each event. Beam is probably the only event they don't really condition on. They just spend a lot of time on very basic things done really well. That has made a huge difference in her presentation on beam and tightness. Sometimes on beam they do work on press handstands.
So which is better? What's the difference? What do you do as a coach or what does your DD do?
I know DD likes the way her new gym does conditioning better. She thinks they don't really do conditioning! I think they actually do much more, it's just spread out so she doesn't notice. They also do a variety of things, where the other gym did the same things all the time.
