Level Up your Athlete: Lifestyle, Athletic and Academic College Recruiting Strategies

 Get educated and learn the necessary tools and processes, as you lead by example and offer your athlete the best possible opportunities.

  • Lifestyle Considerations: Aspire to Lead by Example:  As parents, we need to aspire to lead by example. We have all heard the adage, do as I say and not as I do. Recognizing the import of this adage is important for our gymnasts. The gymnast’s life is atypical within our society. It is a life of continually aspiring for success, success in living a healthy lifestyle, success in continually training, success in attaining good grades which is paramount for a gymnast’s entry into NCAA gymnastics. Success is not feeling that they are missing out because they can’t play as often as their non-gymnast friends do. Success is loving and doing what the gymnast loves. You may say, “How can I help?” You can help by leading by example, living that healthy lifestyle, which involves balance, eating healthy foods, being physical fit, becoming your best self. Not getting caught up in what doesn’t really matter. Keeping your focus on success, doing what it takes to get there and being fully appreciative of the results. Communicate positive energy and support to your gymnast whether you are driving back and forth to the gym, are at home or are sitting at a meet.
