I’ve used many of these drills, and my girls are really good at vault. You have put together an amazing progression along with some new stuff! Thanks so much!
Though I use many of these drills on vault, it is important to always be looking to learn when coaching gymnastics. Brandon excellent job with this video! GO REGION 5! #55555
This video is gold. I've been coaching for 12 years and love to see the same concepts trained in new environments. Lots of "Dang, I need to implement that" moments for me. Thanks for sharing.
Love your videos, they are so we’ll done and they go deep into technique without being too long. I really appreciate them and hope you’ll be posting more 😊👍🏻
Omg thank you so much! I’m a silver gymnast and I really needed this to improve my front handspring over the mat stack!! I’m really excited to compete this season!!
Watch any top tier vault finals, especially from the men who do a lot more technical complex and difficult vaults. Go ahead and look for arm circles. You’ll be surprised how few arm circles there are and how there is seemingly no correlation between arm circles in the hurdle and having a good vault. Just a tip to remember, just because there’s a tradition of thinking something helps you, it doesn’t mean it is actually doing anything and can be a waste of time. ;)
Men are a completely different ball game with power and structure. Genetics plays a lot into different techniques! Even a lot of NCAA women or Elite women who do FHS front vaults can do without an arm circle. But this is the top 1-5% of athletes. Working with a program of 50-100 girls, an arm circle is a great way to build foundations! We can tweak technique when they grow and start flipping out of it, if they get there ;)
To make the video or to teach from start to finish? Teaching is usually 1 year and the video is after a long day of filming another week of editing etc
