Thanks!!!

Thanks so much!! It has gotten a little bit better since I first posted this!

Thanks for the replies!! Anything else would be helpful!

We usually do three full event rotations and split one event in half for conditioning. Each rotation is about forty minutes so one day could be 40 minutes of stretch/warmup/light conditioning, then 40 minutes of bars, 40 minutes of beam, 40 minutes of floor, and then last rotation split, so 20...

That is so exciting!! Best of luck!

No problem:)

I know exactly what your talking about!! I'm the same way so I get it. It is really hard to be a perfectionist and be a gymnast, but it can also be helpful. I've found that just trying to talk yourself out of those thoughts that say, "Ugh what's wrong with me why am I not doing this when I know...

Thanks!

I love it!!! Its really clean for the second day! Way to go!!

Thank you to everyone who replied!!! I'm going to keep this thread open for anyone else who wants to reply. I will try these out! I have a few methods I know of if anyone would like to hear them. I created this thread so I could find some new methods to figure out what works best.

Thank you! Also, do any of you have tips on how to care for the rips themselves?

I would say look at gymnasts beam/floor routines and find what you think suits you best too. Maybe looking at dance choreo would help too?

Thank you so much! But I thought you should keep it moisturized?

I am a gymnast that has naturally soft hands. Sadly, too soft, so they rip all the time. I've had over 20 rips while my teammates mostly have had 5-10. Any tips or products you can recommend would be very much appreciated. Thank you! :)

Also if you have any products/brands you recommend please let me know!
