Is running the best cardio for gymnasts? Or is it doing more harm than good?Dave Tilley and Diwesh Poudyal challenge traditional gymnastics conditioning methods, offering evidence-based alternatives for building aerobic capacity and sport-specific metabolic fitness without excessive impact.• Exercise physiology basics: aerobic system (recovery), anaerobic lactic (1-2 minute efforts), and anaerobic alactic (brief max efforts)• Mile runs are "junk conditioning" - they don't build true aerobic capacity while adding unnecessary impact stress• Better aerobic base through 25+ minutes at 120-150 heart rate on bikes or through properly designed circuits• Preseason training should use shuttle runs, med ball circuits, and intervals to build specific metabolic capacity• Use safe, low-impact tools first before transitioning to routine-specific conditioning• Periodize across three phases: off-season (aerobic base), early preseason (metabolic prep), late preseason (routine integration)• The quality of conditioning matters more than how "hard" it feels - focus on physiological adaptation rather than exhaustionEmail diwesh.poudyal@champ.pt to discuss conditioning strategies for your gymnastics program.We appreciate you listening!
