What can you tell me about adult gymnastics?

Answer by  LadyDarknezz19 (37)

It is going to take a lot of work to be able to become an adult gymnast. You must first make sure your body is in tip top condition and that your joints are not damaged, since gymnastics really does a number on your joints. Other than that, you should contact a local gymnastics trainer for more information and advice.

It is never to late to try something new, but you should always check with your doctor before starting a new sporting activity. Gymnastics for adults will still involve a large amount of stretching and working on flexibility. Adults can start with the basics just like kids.

First of all you are not too old if you are over 25 to do gymnastics.Gymnastics is all about resistance training.The conditioning involved focuses on functional strength.There is also a lot of stretching to keep your joints limber.It is a difficult sport so younger children starting at age five have more advantages with starting with this sport.

Adult gymnastics is difficult to get into if you have never been trained in gymnastics to begin with. The first step would be to talk to your doctor.
