mixing gymnastics with weight training?

[wicksen]

Would doing some gymnastics help me improve my weight training or should I stick with just weight training? my goals are not strength but I want to simply look good and build a strong core. would be nice to be more ripped and have an 8 pack like some of you guys on here. what do you guys and gals think?

I love monkey bars and gymnastics. being agile like that is great for building a strong core. most lifters in the gym actually have weak cores

Gymnastics is certainly not going to be a bad choice to add in.

Give it a try

No reason not to especially since your goals are not to be huge and strong. If you just want to look good then gymnastics with weight lifting would be a great combo.

You will benefit from a variety of training but it really depends on your goals.

there will be no harm in it
