Best Parallettes & Handstand Bars for Gymnastics Skills

Last Updated Leave a Comment

Lately, all I’ve seen parallettes being used for are L-holds. Forever a fan of handstands and press handstands, this makes me think that a lot of people underestimate the potential the best parallettes can have for abdominal gains.

Of course, things like size, height, and material type have a big influence on what can and can not be accomplished with this equipment.

Top Pick: Best Wooden Parallettes by Yogabody

Our core metrics in this review were material, size, versatility, and cost. Yogabody has the best wooden parallettes for body weight exercises and learning gymnastics skills.

Yogabody’s model  is essentially learning to sink or swim with training wheels on, meaning it can reach a high intensity workout and skill development without jeopardizing your safety. Its three main areas of focus are why we were able to determine this pair as the best parallettes: portability, what it’s made of, and price. The short frame makes it easy to carry while minimizing counter balancing accidents since it is near impossible to tip over, and has non-slip rubber stoppers on the base of its legs adaptable for any surface.

5 Best Gymnastics Rings For Sale

Last Updated Leave a Comment

10 years ago..in a time not so different from now..

..EXCEPT for the fact it was considered a feat to find suspended rings anywhere but a gymnastics gym. Nowadays we have things like crossfit as a platform for weighted and body weight exercises which exposed rings as a sufficient way of working out, not sure what took everyone so long to figure that out.

Not everyone can afford to go to a gymnastics gym or a crossfit gym, BUT there are plenty of companies that have monetized the demand for rings supplies for customers to set them up wherever they want. Outside, backyard, in your home, at a park, public bathroom, look I’m not here to judge, I’m just here to let you know what some of the best gymnastics rings for sale are.

HERE ARE THE TOP 3 BEST GYMNASTICS RINGS!

Incredibly Affordable Cheese Mats For Sale

Last Updated Leave a Comment

Cheese mats are incredibly useful inside and outside the gym, and although there are some factors to consider before making any decisions, we have found the most affordable cheese mats for sale.

What are cheese mats used for?

The most effective part of a wedge is its incline slant. That incline slope is what gives your budding gymnast a little push to help complete a skill. Eventually, they will need to learn how to create that push themselves, but for now, let’s take baby steps.

Here is a list of skills wedge mats are used for:

  • Forward & Backward Roll (All variations include straddle, pike, dive, back extension, handstand to forward roll, and so one.)
  • Cartwheel
  • Roundoff
  • Front Walk Over
  • Front & Back Handspring

Here’s a fun little exercise to practice handstands with the cheese mat: Turn the wedge upright, the flat part can be used as a handstand spotter so that if the gymnast loses balance they will either fall away from their mat back on their feet (the position they started in) or fall toward the mat (more so falling with it) where they will land on top of it safely.

Most Valued Gymnastics Cartwheel Mat For Kids

Last Updated Leave a Comment

Since my last post about the biggest mistake when learning how to do a cartwheel, you all have been asking a lot about gymnastics mats to setup at home for level 1 skills like cartwheels. Do not worry, I have found the best cartwheel mat for learning to perfect this skill.

How long it takes you to learn/teach this skill is completely up to you though, I’m just the person who illuminates the most safe products for gymnasts.

Ways the cartwheel mat helps

Yes, you can injury yourself doing cartwheels, thanks for asking. Equipment like this is here to help correct your mistakes over a safe net before getting crazy with your cartwheels.

Line of sight is a big influence for balance, and since we will be inverting our bodies you bet it’s important to have a visual example. The line of sight refers to the line which goes down the middle of the mat that basically serves as a visual queue, this is more common on cartwheel mats for kids. The line also aids when doing straight tumbling, leaps, jumps, and cartwheels so we aren’t all over the place. Hand-eye coordination helps A LOT.

Injury prevention is highly valued by coaches and parents, we want the little ones to have fun AND be safe. Each recommended cartwheel mat is plenty firm for safe support with at least  1 1/2 inches of padding. [Read more…] about Most Valued Gymnastics Cartwheel Mat For Kids

Say Goodbye To Gymnastics Rips With This

Last Updated Leave a Comment

Being able to execute skills from hours of practicing, conditioning, and muscle training is a rewarding experience to say the least. The amount of dedication and sweat that’s contributed is hard to put in words, but anyone who has physical and/or mentally exhausted themselves understands the feeling.

They’ll probably also understand how frustrating it is to have setbacks. Setbacks can be any obstacle in the way of further progression.

For this sport, the real popular setbacks are gymnastics rips, tears, and blisters.

 

Best Gymnastics Rip Treatment, Winnie’s RipFix

Fast healing for hand rips, soothes chafing and blistering, and is the best possible hand treatment for hand skin injury.

 

What Are Gymnastics Rips?

Hand rips are where you receive abrasions on the skin where the top most layer of skin, epidermis, has been either scraped off or partly ripped in some way. It is undoubtedly highly uncomfortable because of how sensitive the area is. Much similar to an open sore where if anything touches it, it stings (to say the least).

The reason hand rips are such a set back for gymnasts is because every apparatus contains multiple skills where using their hands are required. Chalk is used frequently in this sport, and in order to help heal gymnastics hand rips it is a wise idea to not put anything on the hand rips besides medical treatment.

As gymnasts advance through their levels and begin competing, some equipment may become necessary to acquire as their skills advance. With so much weight supported and held by our hands it becomes a strenuous task to say the least.
