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

Segment 2: Learning New Things is Fun

Segment 3: Having a Inspiring/Supportive Coach

Segment 4: Sense of Accomplishment

Segment 5: Receiving Support from Friends and Family

It's clear that the reasons people keep going back to the gym are as varied as the individuals themselves. Whether it's for physical health, mental well-being, or social connection, the gym holds a unique allure that keeps drawing us in. So, the next time you find yourself lacing up your sneakers and heading to the gym, remember that you're not alone in your journey toward health and fitness.

Episode 14: Mastering the basic skills.

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.
