This week to achieve my goal I went to practice every day. My coach and I focused on doing harder skills instead of basic. To start practice I ran 4 miles and then did 100 pull ups and 100 chin ups. While we were at each event I had to do 10 routines without any mistakes and then after I finished that I had to do 10 of each upgraded skill. an upgraded skill is a skill that is harder than the ones you are currently doing and you hope to compete with in a few weeks. For example, one of my upgraded skills on beam is a standing arabian. A standing arabian is when your standing on the beam and you go to do a back tuck but twist your body and end up doing a front tuck. After I finished my routines and 10 of each upgraded skill I did conditioning for each event.The conditioning for each event targets what parts of your body you use the most on that event. For beam we do leg conditioning and balance.Each event everyday this week I did routines, upgrades, and then conditioning.
The last hour of practice we did flexibility and conditioning. For the flexibility part we did over splits on a 2 foot mat have leg was on the mat for 3 minuets including middle splits. After splits we did shoulder stretches with a partner. The conditioning was different every day but it was always cardio. One night this week we did 50 pull ups 50 chin up and then we ran 2 miles. After the 2 miles we did 200 jumping jacks and 200 jump squats. Then we got a 45 second rest and then we did as many push ups as we could for 5 minuets without coming down. after push ups we got a minuet breath and then we ran around the floor and after each lap we did 50 push ups and 50 sit ups. We ran 25 laps and then after 25 we had to go down from 25 running a total of 50 laps then we got to go home. After Saturday i will have practiced a total of 36 hours this week.
