Good! :)

Oh gosh!! I didn’t think it would be that easy (or possible, for that matter). I’m glad I changed it!

Thank you everyone for your responses! I highly appreciate it! I am leaving the gym very soon.

That is not my full last name, the coach pictured no longer works there, and the warm ups are very, very different now, but you have a point. I’ll change it. Thanks!

My family and I have actually been considering this for a while, because this coach shows extreme favoritism, and I am in the homeschool program. This means that ALL DAY, I am being constantly degraded and/or ignored by the head coach. But I really wanted to compete states, so I could prove...

Yesterday was my last practice before my state meet. In the morning on beam, I landed odd and it hurt my foot a little. I thought nothing of it, and thought it just hurt in the moment. But, when we went to vault, I tried to run but 3 steps in it hurt so much I collapsed. My coach thinks I'm...

Ok thank you!

Hello! I am getting a massage after practice on Thursday, and I have a 6.5 hour practice on Friday... is it safe to attend this practice after getting a massage? Or would I be too loose to do bars, vault, etc. Effectively?

Yes, but why would you do that? To do level 6 and then just quit? Because you do need a flyaway for level 7. In that case, you might as well just do xcel gold, and do all level 5/6/7 skills, with no flyaway (at least until you get a flyaway). Because unless you are planning on quitting after...

Well, you need a flyaway for level 5, and you have to score out of level 5 before level 6, so I'm assuming that you would be stuck in 4 or xcel either way.

AAAGHHHH! That's all I feel right now. I hurt my shoulder a little more than a month and a half ago (I don't know how, it started hurting out of nowhere, and then the pain increased). I went to the doctor 4 weeks ago, and he gave me an x-ray. He said it could either be a problem with the growth...

The meet is awesome! When you stick a dismount, get a high score, show artistry, etc., the gymnast gets "twister bucks" that you are allowed to use at the gymnast mall at the end of awards :) Tim Rand is my favorite meet! And same as LGnyc. We hung out at the pool and hotel.

Wow! That's really weird. The child medium fits me fine, it was just really long. But I feel like if I buy child small, they might be too tight. Or if I buy adult xs, it might be too loose.

Did the adult XS fit her shorter than the youth large? Because I'm worried that if I buy the Adult XS, it will be as long or longer than how the child size fits me.

Hi, I've never worn shorts during practice because they were not allowed. Now they are allowing them on Fridays (and when the season ends, every day). So, I ordered Nike pro shorts. I'm 13 and 4'10-ish, and weigh around 80 pounds. I ordered a youth medium, but they were too long. The youth sizes...
