    WAG Rocky Season so far

    We just got back from our first meet not last weekend, but the one before. I was battling a pesky foot injury, and it was starting to get better. Also, I had a big mental block, that I overcame. Fast forward until last Tuesday, I got really sick and I've been to the doctor 3 times and had a...

    WAG Lexy Ramler gym burns down

    Sadly, yesterday Lexy Ramlers gym caught fire. I don't train there, but I know some of the coaches/gymnasts personally. Any gymnast that loses their second home would be devastated. 1 of their 3 parts of their gym (the main gym) was saved with severe smoke damage on all of the equipment. The...

    WAG Leap Help

    I'm definitely on the muscle/power side of gymnastics. I'm level 9, and I've always struggled with leaps. I have good static flexibility, I have right over, center overs and left split. However when I do leaps, they aren't very good. My switch leaps are still under 180* (also I can't straighten...

    WAG When to hit Puberty?

    There's an 11 year old gymnast moving from level 8 to 9. I've seen her around, and she's TINY. Like, shorter than the vault tiny. And not only that, but she's really skinny, too. For example, when she does kips on the low bar, she doesn't need to straddle or pike, it's like a long hang kip for...

    WAG Confused about the "new" levels

    I'm really confused about how the new levels are going to work. Do all the levels just move down so a level 10 gymnast now would be considered a level nine? Can someone explain this to me? Thanks:)

    Which type do I choose?

    My gym only offers a girls artistic and boys gymnastics. I've always known about trampoline, double mini, tumbling, rythemic and acro. They all look soooo fun, I'm a level 9, so pretty far in artistic for a 13 year old. I want to try another kind of gymnastics, but I still want to do artistic. I...

    Off Topic Wonder What Those Parents are thinking at the Olympics

    I'm just a gymnast, but I know my mom, and she needs medication when she's watching me compete at meets. She could barely watch me do a double back off bars WITH spot, and she couldn't watch after I got it on my own. I just wonder what would happen if I got to the Olympics, which will never...

    Off Topic ANything you've realized about yourself in Gymnastics??

    Before gymnastics I was really shy, and I hated being shy, and ever since gymnastics, now I'm really outgoing! I've realized that I LOVE to prove people wrong. I also love to show off some of my skills, though everybody has that edge to them. I'm capable of a lot of hard stuff (all gymnasts are...
