Me encanta el término "cardio". Es este término ambiguo que ha lanzado en todo el mundo físico y el deporte en estos días mucho. Para algunos, "cardio" es el LSD (distancia larga, carrera lenta / CICLISMO / elipitical, etc.) Para otros, "cardio" es una formación de alta intensidad del circuito. Para otros, es intermitente, de alta intensidad intervalo de entrenamiento.

Así pues, cuánto "cardio" se necesita para la gimnasia? ¿Cuál es el más largo de rutina que estos muchachos van a realizar? ¿Cuál es la longitud de la rutina de un piso de los hombres? 1:30 o algo así? I La mujer del entrenador, así que no lo sé. ¿Cuánto "cardio" se necesitan para un minuto y medio de trabajo? En mi opinión, no mucho.
Entonces, ¿por qué la gente del neumático o "gas" hacia fuera? Les falta dos cosas: - 1) buena técnica para la eficiencia mecánica y menos gasto de energía y 2) la fuerza, potencia, resistencia y poder.
¿Vas a ganar las cualidades de este tipo de deporte? Absolutamente no. No se puede realizar saltos o ejercicios de tipo repetitivo pliométrico y mantener la potencia de salida óptima con los representantes de tantos. No sólo son los músculos no pueden recuperar de manera adecuada, pero la recuperación del sistema nervioso central es mucho más difícil que la del sistema muscular. Pocas personas saben lo importante que el sistema neuronal es el rendimiento.
En última instancia, todo este entrenamiento es en gran medida sólo eso - una sesión de ejercicios. ¿Está su ritmo cardíaco? ¿Es la quema unas pocas calorías. Seguro. ¿Es mejor hacerlos en su deporte? No. Es una pérdida de tiempo.
Para colmo, este tipo tiene la celebración de los atletas pino con la alineación postural muy mal. Lo aliento a que ve a leer diagnóstico de síndromes Movimiento de deterioro por el Dr. Shirley Sahrmann. En este texto, que subraya y apoya la investigación con la idea de que un sinnúmero de los músculos de adaptarse rápidamente a las malas posturas y biomecánica del movimiento tal que desarrollar rápidamente los desequilibrios musculares tanto respecto a la fuerza y la flexibilidad y los aspectos neuromusculares. En esencia, se interrumpe la duración normal de las relaciones de la tensión de los músculos y los patrones de activación neuronal. Estos factores suponen un riesgo potencial de daño en el tiempo. Por lo tanto, vamos a celebrar pino muy mal sobre una base consistente para las longitudes ridículo de tiempo. Gimnasia en su conjunto ya soporta una mala postura, debido a la naturaleza repetitiva de "vaciamiento" (hombros redondeados = cifosis torácica) y los movimientos de elevación de la pierna (se desarrolla muy apretado, el psoas hiperactiva, etc.) No hay que exagerar ya que tenemos que hacerlo.
Espero que los entrenadores jóvenes no están prestando atención a esto porque esto no es como tren / la condición de un gimnasta. Si me envió esto en un foro con una fuerza superior y expertos acondicionado, estarían además de ellos mismos en lo ridículo que es esto. Es hora de que los entrenadores de gimnasia a la rama y empezar a aprender un poco más para la gente fuera del mundo de la gimnasia cuando se trata de la preparación física y prevención de lesiones. El deporte sigue siendo muy aislados. Pero, hay alguna gente muy inteligente por ahí que definitivamente podría ayudar a los entrenadores para mantener a sus niños saludables durante su tiempo en el deporte y en sus años después de que el deporte ".
Wow, gracias por la pared de texto. Pero una cosa es segura, las paradas de mano fueron tristes. Mi 4s nivel celebrar pino limpio durante 5 minutos en la pared, después de hacer el equipo nacional de calentamiento. No se impresionó con la ética del trabajo de estos chicos

I love the term "cardio." It's this ambiguous term that's thrown around the fitness and sport world these days so much. For some, "cardio" is LSD (long, slow distance running/cycling/elipitical, etc.). For others, "cardio" is high-intensity circuit training. For others, it's intermittent, high-intensity interval training.

So, how much "cardio" do you need for gymnastics? What's the longest routine that these guys are going to perform? What's the length of a men's floor routine? 1:30 or so? I coach women's, so I don't know. How much "cardio" do you need for a one and a half minutes of work? In my opinion, not much.
So, why do people tire or "gas" out? They lack two things - 1) good technique for mechanical efficiency and less energy expenditure and 2) strength, power, and power endurance.
Are you going to gain those qualities with this type of workout? Absolutely not. You can't perform repetitive somersaults or plyometric type exercises and maintain optimal power output with so many reps. Not only are the muscles unable to adequately recover, but central nervous system recovery is far more difficult than that of the muscular system. Few people realize how critical the neural system is to performance.
Ultimately, this entire workout is largely just that - a workout. Is it getting their heart rate up? Is it burning a few calories. Sure. Is it making them better at their sport? No. It's a waste of time.
To top it all off, this guy has the athletes holding handstands with really bad postural alignment. I encourage him to go read Diagnosis of Movement Impairment Syndromes by Dr. Shirley Sahrmann. In this text, she stresses and supports with countless research the idea that the muscles adapt quickly to poor postures and movement biomechanics such that we quickly develop muscle imbalances relative to both strength/flexibility and neuromuscular aspects. In essence, the normal length-tension relationships of muscles and neural activation patterns become disrupted. These factors pose potential injury risk over time. So, let's hold really bad handstands on a consistent basis for ridiculous lengths of time. Gymnastics as a whole already supports poor posture due to the repetitive nature of "hollowing" (rounded shoulders = thoracic kyphosis) and leg lift movements (develops very tight, overactive psoas, etc.). Let's not exaggerate it anymore than we have to.
I hope that young coaches aren't paying attention to this because this is not how you train/condition a gymnast. If I posted this in a forum with top strength/conditioning experts, they'd be besides themselves on how ridiculous this is. It's time for gymnastics coaches to branch out and start learning a little more for folks outside of the gymnastics world when it comes to physical preparation and injury prevention. The sport remains very isolated. But, there are some really smart folks out there that could definitely help coaches to keep their kids healthier during their time in the sport and in their years after the sport.
Wow thanks for the wall of text. But one thing is for sure, those handstands were sad. My level 4s hold clean handstands for 5 minutes on the wall after doing the national team warm up. Wasn't impressed with the work ethic of these boys.

I did see a lot of bad form but i rarely see them do this type of conditioning, they usually do exercises that focus on preventing wrist, shoulder, knee and other injuries. one of the boys says on the tape they don't usually do that kind of workout. I think they were goofing for the camera.
They must be doing something right they have graduated 3 to Cal and 1 to Ohio State in the last 3 years.
