Gregor, do you think the bench presses you're doing help anything in gymnastics?

I'm using it on precompetition cycle for strength increase in my pecs for subsidiarily exercise. I noticed when my bench press was increased I increased strength in all other exercises. So only the time will show if it helps. But in the end it doesn't do any harm if i'm doing it.

Now I'm in preparation for competition, so now more or less just routines and after that combinations of strength moves from rotuines.

I've just learned that competition in Hungary this year is not as F.I.G.s world cup as prevous year, but Grand Prix :roll: oh well...

So you are interested in weight training for ring strength, why don't you try some presses? They will increase your power on vertical plane, and are more brutal than bench!

presses on rings? like maltese presses? Did you look closely my precompetition training? I have alot of presses.

Lol :) The weights definitely help. I've started doing one set per workout of weighted squats, bench(or incline, I switch each workout), and those maltese and victorian dumbell moves you talked about in your log, where you lie flat on the bench and if you're face up then you press the dumbbells straight-armed from maltese to planche, and if you were face down then you pull straight-armed from sort of a planche level to a victorian level. They are helping me a lot! I am glad I read your log, you've got some very intelligent training. In your routines you definitely look really strong and steady. Better than the competition, for the most part! I think in watching the competition routine on youtube and watching the videos you posted in this thread, you seem to have more trouble at the top of the handstand than anything else. Anyhow, I hope your routine keeps improving! Looking forward to seeing the next competition video Gregor!

Yes I have very stiff shoulders(at the begining I couldn't rise my arms to my ears) and because of my shoulder injury I couldn't do any flexibility work for month. Still it could be done more about flexibility (it's always something it could be done better).

I'm glad someone has helped himself with my tread :P

Absolutely :) My shoulders are super stiff too, it's really hard to stretch them out. They're way better than they were when I first started this gymnastic training though! I am really glad that a world-class competitor like you takes the time to share his workouts with us. It's really nice to see how you train, because if I am doing more work per week than you then I know I am doing too much for sure!!! Seeing your workouts has helped me adjust my training, and I have learned a lot of great exercises from your routines too. Thank you!
