Gymnast Training

-RAJ-'s picture

Hey MFT crew,

Anyone ever wondered how gymnast trains? I mean those guys have amazing upper body muscle definition. And i heard they only do bodyweight stuff?

Anyone have any ideas on how to incorporate gymnast training to a routine?

Im quite interested on the planche...any gymnast out here?? Can share some training that is needed to lead to a planche??

Thanks guys =)

are crazy athletes...
they also do weight training, and its almost all strength training to supplement their many hours in the gym doing floor routines, and the other routines like vault, bars, etc.
im not a gymnast though, i just have some female gymnast friends
