Introductions

Hi everyone!

 

I'm Bhima from South Australia. I am 25 and a competitive gymnast who has returned from a 10 year hiatus due to study and career. Prior to that, I was in the Elite program for 10 years where i represented both my state and even my country in Men's Artistic Gymnastics (MAG).

 

I am also a gymnastics coach and personal trainer and i will do my best to help out with some advice around the forum. I know i will definitely need a lot of advice to help myself get back into it.

 

See you around!

Welcome to the forum Bhima.

Howzit!

Cool! Looking forward to hearing of your experiences and what it is like training gymnastics as an adult.

Cheers guys.

The body is a little sluggish and recovery time is huge lol I have to say that my skill acquisition is much better with age. I am getting skills that I never could when I was young and fresh.

Currently working:

double lay - floor

Quast, jäger and stoop dislo - h bar

Healy, stutz and felge hstd - p bars

Tsuk and urichenko with 1/1 t - vault

Strength for rings

And working on enthusiasm for actually getting on the pommel lol

Welcome aboard Bhima! Great to see some of Oz's talent representing!

Sadly we don't have the kind of funding the big gymnastics countries do, BUT WE DO IT ON GUTS!
