Hey, I've been finetuning my gymnastic bodies sessions, with some very good advice from forum members (thanks!), and getting what I think are positive results. I am wondering a few things though. Any help is greatly appreciated!
1) What should I be doing being sets?
2) My warm-up currently consists of the following: Dynamic Joint Mobility, Wrist stretches, shoulder mobility, Ring Press-up - 20, Squat, Lunge, Side - 10 of each, Pull-up (2) -> support, Dip (2) => support. It takes a total of 10 minutes. Does this seem sensible?
3) I guess this last question is more of a request for a critique my current workload. I do GB Mon, Wed, and Fri (I also train Capoeira, dance/breakdance, floreio art, and when schedule permits, parkour). Here's my GB schedule:
Monday
B) Gymnasts' extended set - I do wide/shoulder width grip pullups and shoulder/narrow grip chin-ups, 10s between each, and a 3 minute rest between sets. I usually do 5 sets with as many reps as possible for a total of 12 repetitions of each variation.
C) (pistol w/ 5 lb plates 5/side, rest 1 minute, back lever, flat tuck - 0:15, rest 1 minute) - x 4
D) (PPP on ground – 5, front lever, tuck – 0:15 TOTAL) x 4 / 1m rest between exercises
E) (Ring dips - 8, If I can't do all 8 with full ROM, I start doing negatives, 90s rest, advanced frog/tuck planche - 0:25, 90s rest) x 4
F) (L-sit straddle - 20s total, rest 1 minute, front pull variations- 5) - x3
