Can anyone tell me roughly how many hours per week a gymnast should train? Levels 1 through to 6. My daughters gym doesn't seem to do many hours so was wondering what other gyms do. Thanks

These are the hours for my daughter's gym:
L1: 4 hours
L2: 6 hours
L3: 9 hours
L4: 12 hours
L5-8: 18.5 hours

They don't have any gymnasts above L8 right now. There are a few gyms here locally that train more hours than this and some that train less.
