Trying to figure out some "hybrid" programming with the intention to add some skating endurance and overall strength simultaneously.
Played around last week:
Squat, Press, Deadlift
Squat: 225 x 2 x 2; 245 x 2 x 4; 245 x 3 x 3 (21 total reps)
Press: 115 x 3 x 5; 125 x 3 x 2 (21 total reps)
Deadlift: 275 x 7 (grip) + 3 more
Jumped rope for a while between squat rounds
Finsished with 20 clap push-ups, 30s jump rope, and 20 more clap push-ups, then 5 each side lying windshield wipers

Cosmo,
Make sure not to take your gymnastics holds too close to failure, then they will take a long time to recover from. Also, when training balance-centric gymnastics activities, doing more sets will make your balance benefits more pronounced than simply gutting it out to stay up longer.
Hope you don't mind my posting in your journal...

Wow, I'm psyched for the help...and that's a big help...I was trying to go to failure and it wiped me for a few minutes. I do the same on paralletes so now I will change all around...my balance needs help.
Today I worked out with my son (12 yo) to help him (and me) with hockey off season training.
warmed-up with agility ladder races.
We did 2 rounds (2 minutes rest between each round) of: 30 second intervals (no rest between exercises) of the following:
push-up
air squat
pull-up (him ring reverse row)
forward lunge
sit-up exchanging 8# mb at top (2 in a row = 1 minute)
backward lunge
ring dip (him seated dip)
jumping split squat
Then shuttle sprints in garage (each up and back lap is ~ 15 yds, 15 sec rest between):
4 laps
3.5
3
2.5
2
1.5
1
Then he did 45 second sprints on rower x 2 and I did snatch balance x 2 x 5 reps.
Fun!
