goals???

Ok, maybe I'm the only one obsessive like this, but I have goals for every month!!!
What are some of your goals coming up??? Please post level, too.

I'll start. I'm a level 7.
By the end of September:
Bars: fully connected routine, cast to 45 degrees above horizontal(seen the new requirements yet, anyone??)
Beam: front walkover fronthandspring-high skinny beam, no extra mats, switch leap to 180(high skinny beam), finish making up routine.
Floor: stick front handspring fronts, get routine choreographed(Tainted Love)
Vault: post flight!!!

Just wondering, why standing tucks(floor) and b/wo, bh on beam if you want to be a level 4? Is it part of your clubthat you have to?

I was wondering the same thing as gracefulone. I think it's a great thing to set goals--it'll really help you succeed in what you're doing. My goal is to get back into the gym and do some basic stuff on floor and trampoline.

no, its because i did tumbling, and want to catch everything else up.

but my club, yeah, you have to have a certain number of level 4 skills to move up to level 4. (or for whatever level you want to move up to. )

GymKim93---way to go with setting some awesome goals for this year! Good luck with all of them! One and a half punch fronts on floor are awesome, once you get those really good, go for one and a half punch front full--i loved doing that one! Double pike dismount off bars--woot woot! Next step..double layout :-p

By the next meet(Dec.15)
Floor: Set to my potential on layout(sometimes they're really good, sometimes they're really bad)

Beam: Full routine. Alone. Don't kill my father on my dismount(I tend to go straight up on my backtuck off, and it scares him!)

Bars: Hmmm. Hit the cast requirement so my routine starts out of a ten.

Vault: Get hands off the table more QUICKLY!
