Flexibility
Flexibility is a primary factor in gymnastics. When the body becomes more flexible, the risk of injury is reduced. Maintaining a level of mobility for joints and muscles is very important. When we stay flexible, our muscles will not grow weak, and the range and motion within our joints will help prevent future injuries and ailments that can be caused by decreased flexibility. In addition, decreased flexibility and range of motion can cause a plethora of injuries such as tears, strains to the muscles, injuries and disease to joints.
achieving goals
Goal setting is one of the most important things you can work on throughout your gymnastics career! Not only that, it’s a fantastic life-lesson that will serve you well in school, work, family and every chapter of your life.
