10th Anniversary of Gymnastics Book Prompts E-Book Release
For the 10th Anniversary of her first book, Karen Goeller has released Gymnastics Drills and Conditioning Exercises in e-book format. This gymnastics drills and conditioning book has remained Karen Goeller's most popular gymnastics book for the past ten years. It was written to help gymnastics coaches teach their gymnasts specific skills for better performance, but gymnasts often use this book at home to ensure proper training and fitness enthusiasts love this book for the strength and core exercises. The first edition was used by Greg Glassman to write the CrossFit program. CrossFit is now a worldwide phenomena. So check out this book now! www.lulu.com/product/ebook/gymnastics-drills-and-conditioning-exercises/14595539
Gymnastics Drills and Conditioning Book (Now in Print and E-Book formats.): The gymnastics drills and conditioning exercises in this book will help speed the learning process and prepare your gymnast for skills, series, routines, and competition. Your gymnasts will score higher at competitions when their tumbling, dance, and uneven bars skills are performed correctly. Every gymnast must master the gymnastics skills addressed in this gymnastics book. The topics include running, vaulting, dance (split leap, switch leap, straddle jump), uneven bars (glide kip, cast handstand, clear hip), and press handstand. These gymnastics drills are perfect for gymnasts in USAG levels one through eight, but they are also very useful to more advanced gymnasts with gaps in their training. Gymnastics Drills and Conditioning Exercises was originally released in print in 2001. The e-book has been released on 1/11/11 for the tenth anniversary of the print version.
Why did Karen Goeller write her first book? Karen Goeller was involved in an accident in 2000 and suffered permanent spinal damage. (It was not a gymnastics-related accident.) She stopped coaching gymnastics as she knew it and left her advertising job with Gold's Gym. Desperate to remain involved in gymnastics and fitness, Karen turned to writing. "I felt like I had a ton of information in my head that was not being used." Goeller then compared the knowledge in her head to "an expensive item in your house that just collects dust because no one is using it." Karen shared, "I was so thankful as a young coach to the more experienced coaches who helped me throughout the years. I knew in 2001 that it was the perfect time to pass on this knowledge. Writing books was the perfect avenue to pass on this information."

Athletes and Their Nutrition, Hydration, Sleep, Performance
Attention coaches, teachers, trainers...
My athletes and I discuss all of the factors that go into performance and health, but many athletes do not take nutrition, hydration, and sleep quality seriously enough to make the changes at home. They just do not see the direct relation of these factors with their performance and health.

I have been training athletes since 1978 and have discussed good nutrition, hydration, and sleep with them as long as I can remember. I would like to see athletes and their parents informed on nutrition, hydration, and sleep to help improve health and sports performance.
Ask your athletes about their diet, hydration, training hours, sleep quality, etc. Spend 30 days improving on all of these factors. Thirty days later ask if their performance and energy levels have improved with improved nutrition, hydration, and sleep. (I bet it will.) Keep in mind that the parents must learn how to raise their child athlete so the parents should be involved. It takes an enormous amount of work to raise a child, and even more work and planning to raise a healthy and highly competitive athlete.

Back to school is around the corner and many sports teams are about to begin their season. It is a great time to remind the athletes and their parents that nutrition, hydration, and sleep effect their ability to focus, progress, and perform. These factors effect the athlete's safety too. Without the ability to focus there is an increased risk of injury.
So please help me remind the athletes and parents throughout the USA that they MUST take care of their health. If they expect their body to perform more skills, drills, and other movements than the non-athlete, they must feed, hydrate, and rest it better than the non-athlete...

Sports and Fitness Article: Motivation, 21 Mindset Tips
Sports and Fitness Article: Motivation, 21 Mindset Tips
By Karen Goeller, CSCS
Most people wait around for motivation to strike them like a lightning bolt. Well, I've got news. Motivation isn't something that happens to you. It is something that you create for yourself.
If you don't feel motivated to achieve your goals, it is likely due to mental roadblocks that hold you hostage. Read the following 21 Mindset Tips and prepare your mind for success.
1. Success comes first in the mind, so visualize yourself accomplishing your goals.
2. Remember, you are the only person who can hold you back.
3. Forgive yourself and love yourself despite past failures.
4. Decide what is important in your life and focus on that.
5. Conquer each negative thought the moment it enters your mind, when it is weakest.
6. Give up the idea that things won't go right unless you worry about them.
7. If you bring the body of your dreams to the point of resolve, you'll soon be living in it.
