There are only so many ways to increase your start value in floor routines. You need a BIG tumbling pass and back up passes showing combination tumbling.
A+C: whip to double full. 1 1/2 punch front Front full punch front B+B: f. Lo. - f. lo whip 1/2 front pike or layout B+C: 1 1/2 front layout whip 1/2 front full A+A+C: whip-whip double full A/B+D: whip to double back. A+A+D: whip-whip double back For A+C+A use A+C (+.1) + C+A (+.1) example: whip- 1 1/2- punch front Similar for A+D+A (Whip- 2 1/2 - punch front. )
C+C: 1 1/2 step out thru to 2/1 full A/B+A/B+C: front tuck step out r/o whip - HS 2/1 full. Round off whip, whip, HS double full A+D front through to double back. Whip HS 2 1/2 A+A+D whip-whip HS double back C+D 1 1/2 thru to double back.
We have all made the mistake of not being patient enough and going for the quick trick only to find ourselves lost when the rules change or when the athletes grow. A front through to back lay out may fulfill your double salto pass but you have to get all the way to a double back or 2 1/2 to get any bonus.
Womens Gymnastics is 90% legs. Make sure you condition for it. The Stomach tends to be the weak link. If the midsection is weak the body will not react Arm conditioning- Pushing, Not just pull ups.
Years ago plyometric conditioning was all the rage. It was all over the place. Now I believe that it needs to be very gymnastics specific. Form is a huge factor in plyometric training. As a body fatigues form decreases. Do plyometric early. The more numbers you do the worse they get. Be careful with younger kids
Arm position in whip back. Up- out (small circle) Tight legs. Keep them together Always do something out of it while training. Either bhs or rebound.
watch landings. I have see some very talented tumblers lock knees frontwards.
