I wrote and self-published a 16 Chapter E-Book on Changing Gymnastics Culture.
I gave it away for free in an effort to help gymnasts have happier, more successful, and longer careers. In a time where gymnastics is in a very bad place in our history, my hope was that by creating this resource the future of gymnastics would be better.
Below you can find all the individual chapters to download which include culture development, flexibility, strength, cardio, nutrition, recovery, medical/injuries, professional team development, long-term development, and stress management.
