After seeing several posts about elite and elite compulsary routines I was curious about several things. What is the point of these routines? I looked them up on youtube and they look fairly easy compared to optional elite routines. Are they to look for good basics and or do they serve another purpose. Once you get the score you need do you have to do them again or do you use them to requalify elite every year until you are part of the national team? In an earlier post dunno purposed a scenerio where 3 hrs a week would need to be devoted to these compulsary routines. Why so much for these routines? How picky do they judge these routines?
