    WAG Dislocated Elbow... Well, Darn it

    I posted about 2 years ago this October that I fractured my right elbow on vault and that apparatus striked again! I was doing blocking drills on the trampoline of all things and my elbow dislocated. Yep, hurt again! It popped out and thankfully popped back in by itself later, but has some...

    WAG Jump to High Bar? jump vs. fall

    I am coming up to my 4th Xcel Silver competition and I had a simplified bar routine but now it is pullover, cast back hip circle, cast squat on, jump to high bar, 3 tap swings, 1/2 turn dismount. I recently got over my jump to high bar mental block, but now when I jump, I just fall to it and...

    WAG Xcel new changes- lower start value on Floor Routine?

    Hey guys. At my meet on Saturday, us Xcel Silvers performed our floor routines just like at the previous meet in late december, where we started out of a 10.0 start value. At this meet, we were judged out of a 9.5 start value! I can't seem to understand why we were lesser this time, as my coach...

    WAG Meet Hair with Backwards Roll

    Hello everyone! I have a meet tomorrow, and at my last one I tried a half up half down bun that I do at practice. (Like McKayla Maroney's.) But it came down after I started on floor. I have a backwards roll in my routine, so it can't be a ponytail. (My hair is long, thick, yet fine. It's...

    WAG Bruising on hips and worse

    Hey everyone :) recently, my routines on bars have been improving with requirements of higher casting. When I finally started casting high enough and then started working on baby Giants, I started getting more and more bruises on my hips. (Normal). Recently though, I keep getting blood blisters...

    WAG Sports Bras for Competition... sorry males

    Hey guys! I am beginning to compete this December as an xcel silver gymnast, and I have been looking around for sports bras to wear under my competition leo. Are GK sports bras really supportive? I'm not super busty but I'm not flat chested either. I like the compression of a nike or under...

    Off Topic GK Elite Outlet

    Hey everyone! I've been selling a couple of my leos so I could buy a new one, and I was wondering, has anyone ever ordered over the phone from the GK Outlet? How much did you pay for one leo and was it legit? I told a teammate about the Outlet and she said it sounded "sketchy".

    Off Topic Wisdom Teeth Surgery

    Hey guys, it's been forever since I've posted! I'm having my wisdom teeth removed on Friday (all 5 of them... Long story...) and I was wondering, I have gym on Monday. Do you guys think it's okay to go back to gym Monday and do everything normally? Has anyone ever experienced this firsthand and...

    WAG Possible fractured elbow

    Hey everyone. It's been a while since I've been on CB! Last night at gym, while doing a front handspring vault, as I blocked onto the vault and tried to push off, my right elbow collapsed under me and I landed on the mat. They laid me still until I could put a splint on my arm and my dad drove...

    WAG Hand/wrist pain

    I've been having some bad wrist/hand pain the last few weeks. I don't wear tiger paws or anything to support my wrists. Ill be doing back walkovers or back handsprings or front handspring vaults and it just hurts badly!! I know y'all are going to say I need to ask a doctor, but I need to know...

    WAG P&G championships question

    I was watching the senior competition and I saw that Ariana Guerra only competed Bars and Beam and then I didn't hear about her the rest of the meet! Does anyone know what happened to her?? She's one of my best friends and I'm just confused haha.

    WAG How awesome is she?!

    Hey everyone! I just wanted to tell y'all what my mom did today! As some of y'all know, I just moved up to level 3. All levels 1-3 have 1 hour a week of practice. (Mandatory. You can do one more but it costs more and i dont have enough money to pay for more than one) we had to sign up for the...

    WAG Cami vs tank leos?

    Hey y'all! I'm thinking about buying a couple of new leos, and I really like the look of a cami leotard. (Like the ones from k bee.) what are the pros and cons of cami leos vs. tank leos? And I know it's stupid for wanting to look good in the gym during workout, but I am wondering: what style...

    WAG Habits in gymnastics!

    Hey everyone! This is just a fun discussion to see if im not the only one (lol). This post is open to everyone, but what are the strangest habits that you've seen yourself do or anyone on your team do in the gym? Mine are my hands sprawled out every second like they're in pain, throwing my head...

    WAG American classics

    I have a friend who competed in the American Classics at the Karolyi ranch on Saturday, and I haven't seen many videos up from it! I have seen that they put Jordan Chiles and a few other routines, but I really wanted to see my friends Floor routine!! Any links for the videos?

    WAG Extra time for practice.

    Hey everyone! I have just moved up to level 3 a couple of days ago, and they're training me to start competing 4 in the fall (hopefully). I only have practice 2x a week for an HOUR each and it's really annoying me because I need more time to work on my new skills. And for anyone wondering, we...

    WAG Question about levels?

    So on the USAG level system, I've heard that for levels 3 and 4 you don't need a minimum score to move up to the next level. My gym starts competing at level 3, so do you think that I could move up to level 5 when I'm ready without competing? (I'd probably be competing with 5-11 year olds...

    WAG Open Gym?

    Hey, guys! My gym does not have open gyms, but since I have so few hours of practice a week, I want more practice time. They DO have parent's night outs, and they last 3 and a half hours, BUT I'll probably be the only one older than 10 there. (And I'm 16.) I'm trying to get to level 3 before...

    WAG Teenage Level 2?

    Hi! I am a Level 2, hopefully a level 3 soon, but I am 16 years old. I feel really embarrassed about my age and height, because the group I'm in (9+ years old) are like 4'10" and shorter. Whenever we warm up, I feel really embarrassed. The team girls warm up at the same time on the other floor...

    WAG What do GL, POI, SI, and 7s6 mean in levels?

    I was looking on "mymeetscores.com" and for when you look at some gymnasts levels, some of them say GL, POI, SI, and 7s6. What do these mean?
