Right now I have three gymnasts who have injuries in their lower body. They are all off training for a while but when they'll come back I'd like to have a good, long lesson plan for them. The girl 1 broke her knee during competition warm up (bruised bone and damaged cartilage). The girl 2 broke her leg when riding a bike. There's no broken bones thought and it's not that bad. And the girl 3 has some kind of repetitive strain injury in both knees but I don't have the words to explain this more specifically in English.

So, I should have a lesson plan for them when they will start training again. Mostly upper body conditioning, dance skills, some bar work. No jumps, no landings... Have you ever made a plan for gymnasts who suffer from injuries in legs/knees and would you like to share it? These girls are in levels D and E here in Finland (can be compared to levels 5/6/7 in USA).

Beam deductions

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get some help understanding my deductions on beam. I’ve been watching my videos back, but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly where the judges are taking the most off. If anyone is willing to take a look and give me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. I’m especially curious about execution deductions, rhythm/connection issues, and anything in my acro or dance that might be costing me. The judge started me at a 10 for this routine, and I got a 9.1
