Flexibility

4×0:20 Thoracic Spine Barbell Stretch

Lay on your stomach with your legs together, knees straight and toes pointed.  Arms are shoulder width apart holding onto a barbell above you.  Actively push down on your shoulders concentrating on getting your armpits to the ground below you.  You’ll have to experiment with the appropriate barbell height.

Static Shaping

3×0:30 On/0:30 Off Hollow Hold on Hands

Continually work on holding your position lower and lower to the ground.

Skills and Drills

3×30′ Arch/Hollow Roll + V-Up

Alternate direction of rolling, keep your arms by your ears and be sure that you are sitting up all the way on the V-Up, let the work come from your abs, don’t rely on momentum from your arms to reach your toes.  As always, stick to your 12 year old Romanian Gymnast form.
