    Gymnastics quotes

    Soccer players use shin guards to protect them. Volley ball players use knee pads to protect them. Football players use shoulder pads, helmets and numerous other pads to protect them. Gymnasts use nothing but their pride. -my gym friend sent me this one time and i love it :)
