Gymnastic Bodies Foundations

Excited to be attending this seminar at Caveman Strong!


Transformation Begins Here! Study the Foundations of Gymnastic Strength Training (GST)

The worldwide GB Seminars are designed expressly for Crossfitters, Gymnasts, MMA, Olympic Lifters, Rock Climbers, Parkour, Free Running, Yoga and Fitness Enthusiasts to learn gymnastics strength training in a safe, professional, hands-on environment. Anyone who is committed to increasing their bodyweight strength mastery, mobility and quality of movement should make attending a definite priority.

What will we be covering?
Fundamental Straight Arm Strength (FSAS)
Fundamental Bent Arm Strength (FBAS)
Fundamental Leg Strength (FLS)
Handstand (HS)
Rings (XR)

Coach Sommer's system will take you step by step from the most basic to the most impressive feats of strength. An unparalleled system that not only takes the need for muscular strength into account, but also the need of a full and active range of motion. You will learn not only how to train for strength but also how to incorporate mobility drills from his series known as liquid steel.

A hallmark of gymnastic training is it's progressive approach. U.S. Jr. National Coach Christopher Sommer is known within the gymnastic community as a true innovator in applying this method to strength training.
Each of the main categories of GST listed above contain dozens if not hundreds of exercises and mobility drills. Coach Sommer will help you make sense of it all.

For example FSAS will show you progressions starting from the easiest core exercise to a full Front Lever, Side Lever, Planche and the rarely seen Manna.
FBAS will develop from simple body weight exercises to No Leg Rope Climbs and Hollow back press to HS.

If you are at all interested in bodyweight strength, attending this seminar can help save you years of frustrated effort.
