Piotr Ochocki Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 'do you hear the commentary?yesThe way they show high bar (constantly flipping camera up and down) makes it difficult to watch, somebody show them how to zoom out or find them wider angle lens.

Coach Sommer Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Rough first three events and then settled down on the second three. Allan was trying too hard in the beginning of the meet. We will do some problem solving tomorrow in training and then try again on Sunday! Yours in Fitness,Coach Sommer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mats Trane Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Watched the web cast yesterday and I must say I think Allens style (toepoint, legstogether etc) was realy nice compared to alot of the other guys. Lets hope he can avoid the falls on sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Svensson Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 So how does the second day work, do they repeat their routines or do a new one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Burnham Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Repeat. For theist part they stay the same. Sometime they will tweak them by adding their more difficult skills if they need to take a chance or they may water them down if they need better execution.

Alessandro Mainente Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 i've heard some intelligent words from paul hamm at the beginning "At those years athletes usually started to train some serious strength elements on the rings like crosses or maltese so probably you will see some of them. Their coaches have to be careful to not pushes they athletes too quickly and prematurely over straight arms elements to avoid damages on their bodies."

Coach Sommer Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 Thank you. If he can manage to relax, get out of his own way and trust himself; he will be fine. Friday he was simply trying too hard. Yours in Fitness,Coach Sommer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Sommer Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 I wasn't able to manage the stress in a simple test with my team , i can't imagine the stress in these competitions!Good luck! Good point. The pressure at this level of competition is indeed enormous. In fact for most people the stress levels involved would be literally unimaginable. Hence the proficiency of an individual's stress management skills are a crucial factor in whether or not they will be successful. To put it quite simply; champions are able to not only survive, but to excel in highly stressful environments that would cause most regular people to have a nervous breakdown, let alone be able to perform the most intricate acrobatics that the human body is capable of.

FREDERIC DUPONT Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (...) If he can manage to relax, get out of his own way and trust himself; he will be fine (...)hehe, at that level, that's the hard part, isn't it? Good luck to Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
