    WAG How To Deal With Series Fear

    There are nine girls in my training group currently. We have three high beams, two low beams, and two floor beams.

    WAG How To Deal With Series Fear

    For most they are skills that we already had and got scared of, but they are still relatively new. It is just beam where most of my team has fears.

    WAG How To Deal With Series Fear

    She has tried letting us work on our own, having us say words in our heads while we go, standing at the end of the beam, stacking up mats, and spotting. There may have been a few more but those are the ones I remember.

    WAG How To Deal With Series Fear

    My coach has been trying many new techniques to get my teammates and I to go for our beam series, since most of us have beam series fears. She has started to do conditioning as punishment if we don't go. However, she said if we can come up with ideas that we think would help us, we can try...

    WAG Typical Start of Season Scores?

    There is one girl at my gym who may be accused of sandbagging in level 6. She has a beautiful cast handstand - clear hip handstand - giant x2 - flyaway, beautiful front walkover and bwo - bwo on beam, and a very good front handspring vault along with great front tumbling on floor (front layout...

    WAG Elbow Pain

    Actually, I hadn't fell on it at all, but tonight I had a nasty fall off of the high bar which resulting in landing right on my elbows. Ugh. I'm icing and plan on resting the rest of the week (or until my appointment). I typically don't get injuries, which is why this one worries me a tad.

    WAG Elbow Pain

    I'm going to preface this by saying that I'm not looking for medical advice, just experiences. I've been having elbow pain for a while, but recently it has gotten worse. I do plan on going to the doctor, but due to how busy they are the appointment it will not be for another two weeks. I know...

    WAG Press HS and Straddle Cast HS

    I can cast to handstand, but am no where near getting a press handstand. It's possible!

    WAG Music in the Gym

    For most of the time, us optionals get to pick the music. People running across the gym to turn a song off is definitely a common thing. We have to have explicit turned off.

    WAG Bow, scrunchie, or both?

    My gym requires that we buy the team bow and wear our hair in a bun with two braids going into it.

    WAG Most challenging skill

    I'm currently learning my full on floor, toe handstand on bars, back handspring layout and aerial backhandspring on beam. Thankfully most of these I won't have to compete this season!

    WAG Plum "Slim Fit" Leotard

    Thanks everyone! The leotard I was talking about is indeed on clearance, and was only $14. It sounds like it will be better to just get a regular leotard. I also wear a 0/2 like texasmomof3 dd and am relatively small/short for my age. Thanks for the advice!

    WAG Plum "Slim Fit" Leotard

    I was thinking of purchasing a leotard from Plum. However, the leotard that I want to buy says that it is "slim fit". Does anyone have any experiences with the "slim fit" leotards and with how different they are from the regular fit ones?
