Today’s podcast is a lecture I gave to the Nevada Club Congress that was hosted by Cassie Rice at her gymnastics club. I was asked to talk about strength and conditioning ideas and principles to help make a high-performing and effective gymnastic strength program. I break down having a plan, the need to have a well-balanced program of different movement patterns, how many sets and reps of each exercise, and having a strong relationship with strength and a good Cultural Foundation to go behind what you're doing.
