Coach Sommer is a long time National Team Coach

for the US Mens Gymnastics Team.

He has personally developed several National Cham-

pions and over the course of his career has trained

hundreds and hundreds of state, regional and

national level medalists. He also is the only

gymnastics coach in the world at the elite

level to work with adult fi tness populations.

GymnasticBodies is the only program in the world of

its kind that has been proven successful both with

elite athletes and adult beginners.

This is largely due to Coach Sommer developing

his athletes from day one all the way until they are

polished national competitors. The GymnasticBodies

program is the result of what works to produce these

champions from scratch.

What does a workout look like?

Most beginners can master the core curriculum in 3-4 years.

If you are exceptionally in shape or out of shape, that time

will change.

The primary factor in your success will be the work you are

willing to put into the program. Genetics, height, gender,age,

size are all minor players compared to this. Our students

vary widely, yet all who put in the work see incredible gains.

How long will it take?

Students who wish to make a real change in their bodies

Students who can stick with a program

Students that are willing to put in some work for a tremendous reward

You can make muscles stronger by lifting weights, but it does not

transfer to bodyweight skills.

Gymnastic Strength Training makes you strongest using exercises

that work your entire body while also becoming more fl exible, less

injury prone, more mobile, and evenly muscular. GST transfers

extremely well to weight lifting. Coach Sommers students have

walked into the weight room and pulled a 3x bodyweight dead-

lift, benched 2x bodyweight after learning technique, and jerked

150% bodyweight within the fi rst 40 minutes of Olympic lifting

instruction. We love weight training, but only after you properly

prepare your body fi rst.

Foundation One and Handstand One are the most common start

point for those new to Gymnastic Strength Training. Weve bundled
