Ok, so I woke up this morning and my wrist wasn't able to take any of my weight in a handstand, front support etc. It was tingling, sore, feels like it's gone to sleep and it feels like something needs to click back into place.
Mum said it's just a pinched nerve, but how long is it going to take...
Ok. So im 15 years old, national level 8 Australian standard and am wondering how the american collge system works.
I'm thinking of doing college gymnastics in America if I can also do a degree at the same time.
So I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how the American College systems work...
Ok so on Monday I hurt my feet pretty badly and one of my friends goes to what we call a 'witch doctor'.
Apparantly they scan your foot and it gives it a sort of massage by sending in some sort of electronic waves (I'm sorry I don't remember what my friend was saying to me)
I was wondering if...
One of my friends (who is a dancer) says that sometimes she uses methylated spirits to prevent blistering on her feet from point shoes.
I was wondering if anyone uses Methylated spirits on their hands to help with blisters and rips?
So the other day I was doing giants on a single bar, and I went to regrip and, I dont know how it happened, I let go!
My coach said that I had kind of stopped and tried to regrip but let go instead and then did some sort of weird flyway!
Does anyone know of someone who has done this?
I thought we could post the 10 things we miss about gymnastics...the old scoring system, gymnasts, skills, so fire away:D
1. Artistry in floor routines!
2. A variety in vaults
3. The perfect 10.0
4. A variety of tumble runs
5. Anna Pavlova
6. Tumbling out of whips
7. When you didn't know who...
I don't know how many of you have heard of Anna Li or the Bruins, but Anna Li has one ROCKET of a tkatchev!
Here's her routine YouTube - Anna Li Bars - 2/15/09
Also some other cool fluff from the Bruins (who are the team that Anna competes in)
YouTube - Anna Li - Leap of Death
YouTube - Vanessa...
Just had a random thought as i was watching Wipeout.
I reccon it would be so cool to go on Wipeout as a gymnast because we're strong and have good balance:D
I love the hosts on Wipeout America they're hillarious!
So if you guys had the chance, would you have a shot at wipeout?:rolleyes:
Hey everyone!
I have stumbled across a few really good gymnastics blogs and thought you might like to check them out.:D
Australian Gymnastics Blog -An Aussie Gymnastics Blog
THE COUCH GYMNAST
Hope you enjoy these! They've done a great job in keeping me sane during class:D
In the world champs vault final, the commentators noticed that the flag for out-of-bounds- was going up even when the gymnast was still in those train track lines.
I was wondering if the red line going down the center of the mats has anything to do with the flag going up?
So I was at a competition the other day and they had some sheets up on nutrition, diet and hydration.
But we had to leave so I didn't get to read it.
So I've been left wondering how much water do you need to drink and when?
Thanks!
Lanna

Hey everyone!
Just doing a little bit of venting about a few members on our Commitee
The other day HC was talking to our other coach (lets call him Fred) about how the Commitee was edging HC out of her position (club and coach co-ordinator AND Head Coach) as co-ordinator. She told me to tell...
Hey everyone!
I use teabags for my hands when i get rips because lots of people have told me that they help...
I was wondering if this is a myth or if its true and how does it work
