Form First

We created Form First because we believe that with the help of technology we can create a private coaching experience that will not cost an arm and a leg. We use the latest technology in AI, Computer Vision and Motion Tracking to analyse your specific movement patterns and offer personalized feedback on your technique. We aim to help you improve your skills by emulating how a private coach will approach a training session. We work with the best coaches in the industry who, like us, rely on the science of human movement and are ready to challenge the status quo. If you would like to experience this for yourself, you can join our beta for FREE and enjoy AI based personalised technique training. DM us for more information.

It doesn’t matter how hard you push or how good your training plan is written. Any flaws in technique will limit your maximum potential.

Distributed practice is a learning strategy that involves breaking up studying into multiple sessions spaced out over time. This strategy is often used when learning new languages, however scientists have found this technique yields amazing results when learning new skills. So what does that mean for you? This means that if you want to accelerate your skill acquisition you should aim for short but frequent practice sessions. This way you allow your brain to process and transfer the knowledge from the short-term to the long-term memory. This is why at we ask our users to dedicate 15-20 min practice, 2-3 times a week for best results. Join our beta and see for yourself how fast you can improve your gymnastics skills 🤸

Helping athletes is the reason we exist and seeing your (our users) feedback warms our hearts and gives us the strength and motivation to continue building our product 🥰💪 Thank you for sharing your love for 🤩

There are quite a few differences between Arching and Loading when it comes to kipping. Here are 5 reasons why *Loading* is better:

1. Loading allows you to use the natural elasticity of the stretching of your abs and quads creating more extension for the kip.

2. Allowing for your legs to bend and even separate in the Loading position will allow you to create more speed when propelling your feet forward and upward creating more momentum for the kip.

3. Allowing your feet and knees to separate in the Loading will also eliminate back pain that often happens in an aggressive arch position.

4. Using the Loading position over arching will allow you to have a steady and more controlled kip, which will allow you to stay in control of the force application in the upcoming rep.

5. Using Loading over arching will save you energy in the kip, as you will be using momentum and less strict strength to do your reps. This will allow you to do more reps as you would not fatigue as fast.

🔥 Caution!!! This one will get spicy real fast 🌶🌶🌶 For this one try to complete the in one or two sets for every round. Try to stay as relaxed and consistent as possible. Doing workouts like this one with a single focus in mind (high quality sets for the T2B) will help you build strength and endurance in the movement. This will really pay off in the long term, especially in a high volume WODs. If you are not very good at try doing half toes to bar. Want to know how to do those, check out our Instagram for tutorials and explainer videos.

One thing many athletes forget when practicing is how important continuous feedback is. This is why we made sure that offers a short feedback loop to ensure you are moving in the right direction as you train. You will be asked to practice the skill just for few minutes before you get to test yourself again. This methodology will ensure that you do not solidify bad movement patterns, but you allow for small incremental improvements. Just like with a real coach you will receive continuous support and feedback.

The reason we created was to help athletes improve their technique and ultimately move in a more confident and sustainable way. We are so happy to hear we are one step closer to our goal. Thanks for sharing

15-20 minutes a session is the sweet spot when trying to learn a new skill. It gives just enough time for your muscles to build the strength and your central nervous system to acquire the skill efficiently. Practicing 2 times a week is a minimum requirement when you are working on a specific skill and 4-5 times are for those of you who are super serious. This is why at Form First we recommend 2-3 sessions a week for about 15 min for optimal results.
