Wrist pain can derail your workout!

70% of gymnast complain of wrist pain at some point in their career.  Many wear wrist braces that may minimize symptoms briefly but never address the true pain. Addressing the true cause of the symptoms is key.

***   Do you have wrist pain?   ***   Do you have weak wrist?   ***   Do want to learn to do a handstand but your wrist keep you from doing one?   ***   Do you have pain when you hang or do chin ups?   ***

If so, this video is for you!

Wrist pain can be so painful it prevents athletes from putting weight through their upper body and even hanging activities, limiting activities like pushups, handstands, tumbling, pull-ups, chin-ups, and swing events.  It can become very frustrating to train around or with wrist pain.

Strength and flexibility in the wrist is often overlooked when it comes to training gymnast, cheerleaders, dancers, Acro, and circus athletes. One of the most common complaints is wrist pain in these sports especially in gymnastics and cheer, so common that athletes believe it’s normal or coaches and even pediatricians will say “they’ll grow out of it, here’s a wrist brace”.... ❌❌❌🛑

Wrist in gymnastics, cheer, Acro and circus sports are used like feet in runners and like monkeys hanging from trees. They must be prepared with appropriate flexibility, strength, neuromuscular control, and loading mechanic training to sustain high loads required from 5x the body weight on pommels and back handsprings to 10-17x the body weight with running tumbling, not to mention the distraction loads with hanging and the addition of forces with swinging up to 10x the body weight.

In this video you will learn:

• Wrist stretching techniques to improve your flexibility
• Weighted dynamic exercises to improve the proprioception of the wrist and hand for weight-bearing and control
• Strength exercise to improve the strength and control of the wrist

Great for alleviating and preventing wrist pain.  A strong flexible wrist is imperative for gymnastics and any other activity requiring weight bearing of the wrist or gripping with the hands!

Core strength makes or breaks your athletic performance!

80% of athletes do planks improperly and not effectively, relying on their hips and other supporting muscles instead of actually using their core to stabilize and get strong.

***   Do you struggle doing a plank?   ***   Do you think you have mastered a plank?   ***   Are you simply looking to get a stronger core for your sport?   ***

If so, this video is for you!

Planks are a great core exercise when done properly and effectively.

In this video you will learn:

• Good technique and form to do a proper plank
• How to activate your core and central stability system
• Achieve the core strength you want and need for your sport

Great for core strength and stability.  A proper plank is the foundation for any movement, fitness, or sport activity!

This instructional video on shoulder stability by Brandi Smith, PT will help your athlete attain the necessary shoulder stability to achieve peak amplitude, optimize peak performance, enhance shaping and prevent injury. Proper muscle balance and neuromuscular recruitment between all shoulder complex and rotator cuff muscles must be achieved to optimize shoulder complex mobility and stability. This video includes a step by step progression of shoulder mobility and stability exercises to retrain muscle firing patterns, functional movement patterns, and decrease muscle imbalances. Following this progression will help your athlete achieve their goals while staying healthy.

“A stable shoulder complex is imperative to transfer forces through the body to achieve peak performance…”

“Proper movement patterns and neuromuscular recruitment is the key to upper body power…”

This video is great for gymnast, dancers, cheerleaders, crossfit athletes, and anyone looking to improve their core!

This instructional video on core recruitment by Brandi Smith, PT will help your athlete achieve proper core recruitment to optimize peak performance, enhance shaping, and prevent injury. Proper neuromuscular recruitment and motor sequencing of the abdominals is imperative to initiate the internal abdominal muscles which stabilize the low back. This video includes a step by step progression of abdominal exercises utilizing a manual blood pressure cuff for biofeedback to retrain muscle firing patterns and decrease muscle imbalances. Following this progression will help your athlete achieve the shaping every judge is looking for and help keep their body healthy.

“A strong core is imperative to transfer forces through the body to achieve peak performance...”

“Proper motor sequencing and neuromuscular recruitment is the key to true core initiation...”

STRENGTH and POWER are the key ingredient to a CHAMPION!

Without strength and power it is impossible to get optimal performance to execute and stick skills in gymnastics. This course will help you develop your strength and power and take your performance to the next level.
