Thats horrible I'm sorry to hear that. I have a floor routine... without tumbles. I dont really have a bar routine, but I plan on competing Mini Tramp, Vault, Bars & Floor - but no one really told me until it was too late (I had already signed up) about the holidays... we are on holidays...

That doesn't sound like fun! Whats happened to your ankle? Im hoping it will at least be fun since there's no chance of me medalling haha!

Its so great that adult competing is getting more popular!! Good luck! Im going to be competing in the Australian Masters Games in Feb 09! Ours sounds alot more difficult - we compete against our age groups for example 20-29yrs compete against each other and 30-39 etc etc so Ill be in the...

Definitely get it checked out, it doesn't matter if you feel silly. I think you would feel alot more silly & worse if you continued train and it got worse and you couldn't train at all!! ;)

I have reisport ones, taking me a LONG time to wear them in but I only get to use them once a week for maybe 20 minutes :P But mine also said no water... apparently it actually cracks the thicker ones which is why they say not to - it makes them lose quality etc. My coach told me to use...

I just had a look on youtube, and yeah thats almost exactly what im doing but instead of coming out of it forwards (which would actually be really cool!) i come out of it on the side, like a cartwheel almost but not-- its very weird, I wonder if I could learn to follow through and learn a...

Im SO excited about this section - THANK YOU!!! I wish there was a way that female adult gymnasts could talk privately together though - I have a few embarrassing questions :P

Here in Australia, every 2 or 4 years we hold the Australasian Masters Games, which is ALL sports and gymnastics is included - its the only sport where at 20 years +you are classed as a Master and able to compete- only if you haven't competed your sport in 2 years. I think its unfair that if...

I love front tumbling but having trouble with it, I would LOVE to get front handspring front sault but im doing this weird WEIRD thing...where i reach forward but twist a little to my right...and end up doing a mixture of a front handspring//cartwheel at the same time...on tramp and off tramp my...

Who inspired you to take up gymnastics? It was reccomended by a doctor after my stress fracture healed - but now - Nastia Liukin. What is your best event? Floor will be again eventually What is your worst event? Beam...I don't train it anymore. What is your favorite event...

It could be a mix of all of the things you listed above but I personally believe its a mental block, since it is no harder to cast on the high bar than it is on the low bar. Unfortunately, at the end of the day the only thing that can help yourself get over a mental block, is...well, yourself...

Sorry to ask again guys but this is DRIVING ME UP THE WALL!!! There was a youtube I watched... Carly Patterson, Hollie Vice and Nastia Liukin (+ 1 other) did a group performance with floor beam and bars together...to a britney spears medley...they got dresse dup like her... like one of them...

Im trying to find the youtube of nastia alicia and 2 other girls, where they did a group performance to britney spears - I think it was at something like the Tylenol or Hilton spectactular but I cant seem to find it anywhere!! If anyone knows where to find it or where it was performed...

Thank you for your responses, unfortunately being an adult and working full time, I dont actually have alot of time to go to a gym... much less the funds to do so even if I had the time. I do appreciate your feedback, and im hoping if i try and tough it out, ill see results in the long run.

Hey guys... noone will be straight with me down here so maybe you guys will. Basically as a child i reached level 3 and quit - after breaking 3 of my toes from a beam falling on me, I was off for a while and somehow lost my passion for a while. Anyway... I came back as an adult (not...
