We see you working hard gymnast.  

You're in the gym, day after day. You're giving it your all in practice. You're doing everything your coach tells you to do. But the thing is...you've got BIG dreams. Really BIG dreams. And while you're getting better, it's not happening as fast as you'd like. You're frustrated because your competition scores are not where you'd like them to be and you're not really sure why. You're putting in the work so why aren't your scores improving, you wonder. 

The thing is, in practice you're spending a lot of time training big skills like giants, back tucks, and backhandsprings on beam. But those smaller skills like handstands, split leaps, and turns are not getting a lot of your attention. It's not that your coach doesn't want you to improve on them. It's just that there isn't enough time in practice to spend on both the big skills and the smaller ones. So the smaller ones get a lot less attention. 

But it's those smaller skills that are tripping you up in competition.

 Judges are trained to pick apart your routines and they're ready to deduct for the slightest flexed toe, bent leg, or failure to meet a certain height or body position. So you need to be certain you're paying attention to those little details. While you might not be able to train these skills in the gym as much as you'd like, there are some things you can do at home to improve these skills. 

That's where SkillTrakker Comes In

Enter in SkillTrakker... an online community of gymnasts working consistently to improve their skills through daily challenges that are focused on mastering those often neglected skills. And the best part, it's all done at home in less than 15-20 minutes per day! In fact, we know how busy you are so we created these challenges to be super focused and effective so you're not wasting valuable time. Also, about every other month we host skill-specific challenges where you'll focus on just one skill for 30 days. Read on to learn more about how SkillTrakker works.

So How Exactly Does SkillTrakker Work?

How Much Progress Will I Make With SkillTrakker?

That's a great question and we have a great answer for you.  

The amount of progress you make with SkillTrakker will depend 100% on how much effort you put into your daily challenges! These exercises are designed to give you the most bang for your buck. But if you don't do them or only do them halfway, then chances are you won't see much of a difference between your before and after video or photos.  

BUT...if you put in the daily effort and try your hardest, you can make great progess! For example, Maddie is a SkillTrakker gymnast who put in the work every day and she improved her split leap in both amplitude and form when she participated in a previous SkillTrakker Split Leap 30 Day Challenge. You can watch her progress in this video to the right.

You Mentioned Prizes. What kind of Prizes Are you Talking About?

We love prizes here at SkillTrakker! So for every skill-specific challenge that we run, we offer a prize for every gymnast that completes ALL of the challenges in that month. The prizes vary each time but they've been anything from t-shirts to hair bands, grip bags, bag tags, zipper pulls, water bottles, headbands, popsockets, or X Bands. 

In the months when we don't run skill-specific challenges, you can trade in the points you earn by doing daily challenges for prizes from our SkillTrakker store.

More Questions? We've Got Answers.

I train in the gym a lot of hours during the week and I'm worried I won't have the time to complete the daily SkillTrakker challenges?  

We know how much you train which is why we created 3 daily challenges that can be done in a short amount of time each day. You can do the exercises in the morning before you go to school or even right before bed. These exercises were designed to be focused and effective so it doesn't take much time each day to see results. In addition, we've created monthly challenges that you can complete any time during the month. So you can do these challenges over the weekend or on your school vacation if you have one that month!  

My coach doesn't want me practicing at home because s/he's worried I'll pick up bad habits.  

We understand why your coach wouldn't want you to develop any bad habits and we don't want you to either. Luckily the exercises you're going to do in SkillTrakker are all ones that will benefit you. We provide you with videos so you can see the proper way to do the drills and because you aren't working on major elements like backhandsprings or giants we're certain you'll get more good out of SkillTrakker rather than pick up bad habits. In fact, any work at all on your smaller skills will be beneficial to you.

What exactly IS SkillTrakker? I can't really tell.  

First and foremost, SkillTrakker is an online community of other gymnasts who are working on mastering different gymnastics skills. In SkillTrakker you can keep track of the different skills you're learning on each event and watch the progess you're making. You can even download certificates as you master each skill! You earn points for completing daily challenges and with your points you can win prizes in the SkillTrakker Store. In the daily feed you can see what other gymnasts are learning and cheer them on through comments and high fives. Basically, SkillTrakker is a really cool way to practice your gymnastics skills while staying motivated and belonging to a community of other cool gymnasts like yourself!

How do I Join?  

To join SkillTrakker click on the pink buttons above or below! We can't wait for you to get started!

Can I join in the middle of the month?  

Yes, SkillTrakker challenges are ongoing. However, the leaderboard gets cleared at the beginning of every month so in order to earn the maximum points in one month you'll have to have done all the challenges in that month. But once the new month starts you get a fresh start and can start all over.

How long do I need to be a member of SkillTrakker?  

That's up to you! Most of our gymnasts find their skills really start to improve after 3-6 months of consistent effort. But you can be a member for as long as you like! We have a few gymnasts who have celebrated their one year anniversary with SkillTrakker.

Do I need equipment to participate in the challenges?  

No! We have designed all the SkillTrakker challenges to be easy to do at home. If you have equipment then that's great! But if you don't, you don't need it. All you need is some space in your house. If you have a mat, that's great too but a carpeted floor works just as well. In the past, our gymnasts have even put tape down on the floor to emulate a beam. That's up to you.

Is there a monthly fee?

Yes, in order to take advantage of the SkillTrakker challenges you need to be an active SkillTrakker member. In order to allow everyone who wants to join the abilty to do so we have kept our membership fee as low as possible at ONLY $7 per month. You can cancel your membership at any time if you decide SkillTrakker is no longer for you.
