Article gymnastics training: Split Leap and common Problems
By Karen Goeller, CSCS

As a basis, the jump is divided, there is still a large number of gymnasts who can not properly perform this skill. Many gymnasts reach a difference of 180 degrees in the legs, but they do not keep their hips square, in line with shoulders. Once a gymnast has taken used to turn his hips to achieve a greater spread your legs, it can be very difficult to correct.

The formation of a gymnast to keep her hips square during a jump must be a shared goal of the day, she entered her first gymnastics class. If trained to stay square from the start, there will most likely split his jumps will be performed correctly for all her gymnastics career. It is useful to encourage gymnasts keeping hips square their hips while stretching for splits, divides the execution of jumps, walkovers, and reversals.

Another problem together with the jump of division is that many gymnasts have enough flexibility in their hamstrings, but not enough flexibility in their flexor muscles hip and quadriceps correctly split their legs to their sizable spread among other skills. hip flexors are a group of muscles that lift leg forward and upward. When these groups of muscles are inflexible, the reverse movement of the lifting of the leg back and up (for distribution) becomes difficult.

Here is a simple way to assess the placement of your gymnast's hip and flexibility with regard to the division and, finally, the jump split. Ask your gymnast to make an allocation of how it normally carries this skill. Even if it can not reach the ground a fraction, This evaluation can still be done. Once your gymnast is in a fraction of asking him to bend his leg back so that his back foot is raised earth and it reaches a 90 degree angle with the leg. Your back foot should be a gymnast on the floor and his back knee should remain on the ground. If your gymnast back foot naturally points to a wall rather than the ceiling, it can benefit from further work on the placement of the hip. Your gymnast may also benefit from increased flexibility in training areas for the hip flexors and quadriceps. If his back foot points immediately toward the ceiling rather than a wall, it can already correct hip placement.

Your gymnast may need to lift his body a little division to carry out this evaluation in the gym or make adjustments in placement of the hip. If you discovered that your hips do not stay gymnast square, then she made this simple assessment gymnastics, you may be able to easily help correct placement of the hip by requiring him removing the hip on the same side of the back leg forward. Once she is invited to take before your hip back foot gymnast may point to the ceiling. At this point many gymnasts can feel the difference between the placement of the hip during correct and incorrect splits. Sometimes, awareness is all that is needed to correct the problem of placement of the hip, but many gymnasts will require a change in their flexibility training well.

You may have determined that your gymnast will benefit from stretching the hip flexor and quadriceps areas so further. The following section is simple but very effective for athletes of all levels.

Stretch the hip flexor on the block
Have your gymnast lie on your back on a pile carpet or spotting blocks.
Make sure the region is at bottom edge of the carpet pile or block.
Ask your gym to provide a leg on his chest with one knee bent.
Next instruct your gymnast to place his hands on his upper shin to hold that close to his chest leg throughout this stretch.
Next instruct your gymnast to lift one leg over his body so that his toes are pointed toward the ceiling. This step may be slightly bentrelaxed. The knee and the heel on that leg should be in line with the hip bones and shoulder the same side throughout this whole section.
Once in the starting position, ask your gymnast to slowly lower the leg lifted so the thigh is level with the block, then lower the level of the block.
Once lowered as much as the muscles of the hip flexors gymnast allow the leg hangs below the top level of the block or mat stack.
Again, make sure the leg that hangs below the level of the block is aligned with your hip gymnast and not on the side.
Allow your gymnast to remain in this position so that his hip flexor muscles will be stretched. Gravity do the work Stretching slowly and steadily your gymnast. If your gymnast has done this stretch before and you feel that this stretch is more effective allowing him to wear a lightweight ankle.
For your security, your gymnast should take the opposite leg up to keep the lower back on the block.

This second section is fairly common, but many coaches do not ask their gymnasts to bend the back leg, depriving a portion of their gymnast Complete this position.

Hip Flexor Stretch hamstring /
Ask your gym to kneel on the floor with one leg in front of his body.
Following instructions to move your gymnast's weight to their front leg, pressing her hips down and forward.
Once your gymnast hips are pressed forward, the instruction to lift the back foot on the ground, knee bent. Make sure it retains his knee on the ground.
Make sure your front foot gym is not past his knee to stretch the safest and most effective.
Watch your gymnast back foot to see if it points to the wall or ceiling. If his back foot is not pointed toward the ceiling, then her hips may not square. Ask your gym to get hip on the same side as his leg back and forth to press the hip of the same side as the front leg forward.
For hamstrings, hold his feet up, have your gymnast shift her hips back and then bend his front foot to stretch the hamstrings of the front leg.
Make sure your gymnast is not sitting on her back foot. If she sits on his back foot, ask your gymnast to move his foot forward first.
To help you understand how to stay square gymnast in this part you can ask him to ensure the top of her inner thighs touch each other. Stretching will help keep your square gymnast jumps and splits square.
Focus on the position of hip your gymnast over his shoulders in all portions of this nature because once you allow a gymnast to turn on the hips rather than remaining square you will allow the muscles to move and gain flexibility in a different direction than expected.

It takes time, concentration and a commitment to excellence to insist that a gymnast perform his warm-ups, jumps, walkovers, handsprings and with hips square, but the safety benefits and time saved when the skills or advanced training routines is invaluable.
