Gymjourneymom had posted a thread about gymnasts doing other sports and whether it was a good idea or not. I say... "Go For It!!!" I think by doing other sports gymnasts get a lot of beneficial cross training and if helps break the monotony of gymnastics sometimes. My dd is now doing a spring session of track with her brother and loves it!! She also still dabbles in the cheerleading (especially the stunting). DD had a stunting private today and had a blast with the coach. He knows she is doing gymnastics this year so he incorporated some of her "gymnastics stength" in some stunts. Check out the video:
Yeah, I know--I have a video for everything LOL!!!
