    how to get over my fear of back walkovers on beam?

    okay, so this fear is driving me insane. :mad: i started back walkovers on beam during August. I got it the first night i started it, and it seemed so easy for me at the time. But ever sense then, each night, i go into my gym, do it on the fat beam (which is attached to a low beam), and then i...

    Types of gymnast- which is better?

    I dont think one is BETTER than the other. They are just two different things :) personally, I am a defiantly powerhouse. I am a great at tumbling, but I have a lot less flow and grace than i do power. I'm not sure if one lasts longer than the other, but i would say it depends on the gymnast. :)

    Serious Backhandspring Troubles!

    okay. this was happening to me a couple years ago when I first got my back handspring. What I did was, I got a spot, even though i could do it on my own. When you get a spot, it helps you concentrate on the things wrong with the skill, rather than doing the actual skill. Good luck!!! :D

    sibling question

    yeah a little... because she's a gymnast, too so I help her with some stuff... but only basic stuff, nothing huge, like front walkovers, and back walkovers. Anything more than that can be dangerous.

    Awkward interactions with other girls from your gym?

    Yeah at my new gym it's like this :) We are all really nice to eachother and stuff :) but at my older gym, it was like this a lot, because everyone was always so awkward :b We could barely have a conversation

    Back hip circle help!!!!

    I think I know what you mean, when I first got my back hip circle this was happening to me, too. Here's what you do: first, make sure that you are going fast enough, because if you don't have enough speed, its much harder to get around. Second, if the meet is that close, try to do anything just...
