This Week in Training: Euros Motivation

European Beam Bronze Medalist Claire Martin is working on upgrades. She's working a double front as an uneven bar dismount and... wait for it... she's working a front handspring front tuck for beam! It's just on the low beam at the moment but yay! The possibility!

Petits essais d'aujourd'hui 🙈💪 #bars#beam#new#elements#training#gymnastics#workhard

Emily Little is working a bhs-tucked full on beam and has a bit of fear to get over before she can put it in for competitions.

Hoping that one day soon I'll be able to hit this skill in competition and not be so scared of it 😂 hard work and perseverance 💪 #gymnastics #fliptuckfull #beam #gohard #benicetomebeam #friends @stickit_tv

Catalina Ponor is working an Onodi to wolf jump. She's serious about being back in the gym and I wouldn't count her out as a possibility for Glasgow...

Celebrating May 1st in the gym 😉

Mary-Anne Monckton is working a piked Tkatchev to Pak salto. She's slowly but surely coming back from her ankle injury and we have the pleasure of seeing what she's doing on bars in the meantime.

First time trying this combo on double bars..🙈took me a few times to get over the fear, but finally built up the courage to just go for it!🙉 💪Love learning new skills! 🎉#tricky #PikedTkatchevPak #GottaStartSomewhere 🎶 The Script

MAG/men
Fabian Gonzalez (ESP) is on his way back from injury and working a double pike on parallel bars. I always appreciate seeing the steps it takes to get a skill and this is one of them.

Hope you enjoyed this week's edition! I'm going to start using the hashtag #apftwit (for Arabian Punch Front This Week in Training) to try and keep a better eye out on skills in case I can't add them to a post right away. Feel free to use the hashtag as well! Check the upgrades tag for older versions.
