pod(CAST HANDSTAND): Gymnastics & CrossFit JR Jaquay

Welcome back to the podcast. This week I want to discuss setting realistic goals. So often people find themselves setting goals and later realizing they didn't accomplish those goals. Why does this happen? Are people jusy lazy? I don't think that's the answer. More often than not folks don't quite understand how much work needs to go into success. Maybe they don't know where to start.
Today I am going to outline the S.M.A.R.T. rule and hopefully it provides clarity on how to find success.

Welcome back my people!
Did you hear about the return of one Gabby Douglas? She returned to competition this past weekend. Here is a video of her FLOOR ROUTINE from the American Classic where she qualified to the US Championships. Not too shabby for taking 7 years off!
Today we are going to talk about mastering basic skills. Why is this important? I'm glad you asked. Today I will answer all those questions and hopefully give you both insight as an athlete and possibly how to help your child why it is so important to master the easy stuff before they can master the more difficult stuff.
Here is the link to the HOLLOW BODY TRAINING VIDEO I mentioned in the podcast. Remember the hollow body is the building block for so many gymnastics skills you will also find in CrossFit.

Welcome back to the show. Today, we're diving into the gym, a place that holds both dread and fascination for many. Have you ever wondered why some people keep going back to the gym, even when it seems like an uphill battle? Join us as we uncover the psychology behind this phenomenon.
Segment 1: The Social Aspect

It's clear that the reasons people keep going back to the gym are as varied as the individuals themselves.

Today I'm talking about rips we get on our hands. Gymnasts, CrossFitters or anyone who uses their hands to hold on to an object for large amounts of time know exactly what I'm talking about. Why do we get them? How do we prevent them and how do I treat a rip?

Welcome back to another episode. 
Today JR discusses reasons why parents initially enroll their children in gymnastics and how those original expectations can quickly shift to something much greater. 
At the beginning of your child's gymnastics journey the usual reasons for enrolling your child in class was to create better socialization skills, manage your child's abundance of energy, or hone a natural skill you saw in your child. At what point were those reasons no longer satisfactory? Many times parents get "team eyes" and want their child to move from a recreational program to a competitive program. 
Today let us discuss how and why this occurs.
