    WAG Fear of roundoff BHS

    I'm 16 and I've been doing roundoff back handsprings since the year I started gymnastics when I was about 10. It's a physically easy skill for me and I'm also capable of doing multiple back handsprings and back tucks and layouts. About 6 months ago I fell on my head during my BHS and after that...

    Good coaching or dangerous?

    I have a question. My coach has everyone learn their back walkovers without training them on the low beam first. Some of us (like me) have done them on the low beam before, but not consistently. Some of the girls have never trained a back walkover on low beam ever. He reuses to spot us and tells...

    WAG Blocking Drills?

    I am currently trying to get my handspring full on vault. I can do a handspring pretty well beside the fact that my block isn't very good! My coach told me if i can learn to block better i would actually be able to do the full twist out of it, but I can't seem to get myself to block! Is this...

    WAG Scared of R/O BHS BT!

    I am a level 6 gymnast, and I have been doing my R/O BHS BT's for 2+ years consistently. Earlier this year I was scared to go for it (even with a spot) for one day, but after going to camp and getting a break from gymnastics for a few weeks i could do it again fine. One day I was practicing...
