I have been asked this question several times in the past, “How can I get better at gymnastics?” Well from my experience, building a strong gymnastic base is done using static holds to begin with. Here is a little routine I use to work on building my basis for gymnastics.
How's this for strength training?
Beginner Training
60s plank
60s reverse plank
60s perfect hollow hold with hands over your head
60s arch hold in the superman flying position
60s Parallel Bar support.
60s chin up grip dead hang
Once you are able to hold these positions relatively easy it is time to move on to something harder. More on that to come.
