    Parents Exercise-induced migraines?

    Yes. I would definitely suggest seeing a dr for this. Migraines are the worst and I feel awful for your son dealing with them so young. Can’t give medical advice, but anecdotally, I get them when I run long distances. Found out while training for a marathon and every Sunday after my long run of...

    WAG How / Where to Watch College Gymnastics

    SEC network usually shows college gymnastics (SEC teams) on Friday evenings. They call it Friday Night Heights.

    Parents Would you let your kids compete?

    I agree with Getoutyall, I’d probably try to squeeze in a private if possible. And I’d probably allow them to compete to the extent they and the coaches felt they could do so safely, even if a few of the bigger skills had to be subbed for easier ones or an event scratched. It would be a shame to...

    Parents Getting discouraged

    I’m so sorry for your daughter and all the other gymnasts in your state. That’s an awfully big pill to swallow. My daughter is at flip fest this week and has a couple girls from Michigan in her cabin. I encouraged her to be extra supportive of them, as this is likely their first time in a gym...

    Would you send your DD - sick girl at gym?

    @Getoutyall - she will have a blast. It was also my daughter’s first overnight camp, zero expectations to live up to. But I think it would’ve been great regardless. They did a phenomenal job of keeping it safe as possible but still fun and not weird. Capacity reduced to half, but 120 kids is...

    Would you send your DD - sick girl at gym?

    My daughter went to flipfest this summer. First timer. We ran the gamut of emotions and expectations on it. I kept feeling like we’d be lucky to squeeze it in before it shut down and was a little surprised when I actually dropped her off that it had really happened. It was the absolute...

    Anyone else think that COVID brought the end of gym for your gymnast?

    Ah, I didn’t realize that. But I should have said, I thought everyone loved her program, not her necessarily. Only know that I’ve seen her services recommended very often when parents have asked how to deal with mental blocks.

    What’s the issue with Doc Ali being “now discredited” - I thought everyone loved her?

    Move up or repeat

    Ours will return in a couple of weeks and train with their current teams for the summer. At the end of summer, new levels will be determined. Not all that different from the norm except not starting summer with the presumption they’ll move up if they get the necessary skills over summer this...

    Parents Floor beam

    We just put ours on a long folding panel mat and it seems to do the trick.

    WAG Gymnasts at US Classics?

    Surprised my little gymnast and drove up last night. We are both sooo excited to see some stellar gymnastics and truly inspirational gymnasts! (Marking my first CB post )
