LSU Gymnastics head coach Jay Clark opened up on the importance of rest and proper planning after the program claimed the SEC Championships. While Clark shared how many coaches want the athletes to keep training hard, he acknowledged how, at this point in the season, this instinct could backfire. He expressed his thoughts via LSU Tiger TV, adding (1:53 onwards):

“Rest is important this time of year. A lot of times, you know, coaches it's sort of antithetical to what coaches want to do. Coaches want to train. But, this time of year less is more. I really believe that from a physical standpoint and really a mentally and emotionally... So, we got to give them a little bit of downtime and let them recover.”

He further emphasized that a top-performing team like LSU Tigers often deals with injuries, fatigues and aches at this time of the season and overtraining in such a scenario could make things worse. Hence, the focus should be on maintaining the best physical condition rather than trying to change anything.

The defending NCAA champions also collected a second successive SEC title in 2025 after securing 198.200 in Session II, placing ahead of Oklahoma (197.925) and Florida (197.825).
