Much of what has been outlined will make the reader analyze their knowledge more deeply, and that is one of the author’s objectives: to encourage curiosity, to inquire about how, when, which, etc. The methods in this book are not the only way to achieve sporting excellence, but these are proven methods due to the success obtained by the gymnasts who were trained with these methodologies.
