Episode notes

Today on the podcast I am super grateful to be joined by accomplished and noted USA Elite MAG Gymnast John Orozco. We dive into John’s journey and learn from the experiences that he had, as we try to navigate the current culture change. He shares the highs and lows of his career and what he's learned from them, giving advice to the younger generation of coaches, parents, gymnasts that have young athletes in the sport.

We DISCUSS how you develop a young, elite-level athlete without putting extra volume or extra numbers on them.

WHAT your younger self wouldn't admit he needed help with, but your older self wishes you did.
