This workout features the talented gymnasts at American Twisters as they prepare for the final meets of the 2016 spring season. American Twisters has a large team of level 10s and elites but they are able to fit a ton of high-quality gymnastics into a short amount of time with their fast paced workouts and focused mindsets.
For a more in-depth version of this workout watch our Workout Insiders. Part 1 is here and part 2 will be posted this Friday! These Insiders include their conditioning rotation as well as their floor dance/cardio rotation, both of which were not shown in the Workout Wednesday.
