Not a coach but maybe some ankle strengthing excercises would help if shes having trouble balancing on the ball of her foot?

A needle scorpian or a regular needle?

Back extension roll BHS, BWO BT (dismount), Cartwheel BT (dismount), valdez into a back handspring (?). Those are pretty skills/dismounts are pretty rare around here!

Oh I see! Thank you! @Pineapple_Lump

Anyone hear about Lexie's recent gym switch to Perfection? I saw MLT's post the other day on facebook saying that Lexie had decided to leave because she needed a change. Is Perfection equipped to deal with elites? What do you guys think about her recent switch? Is it for the better or for the...

I believe you need a flyaway, clear hip above horizontal & a baby giant to compete bars. A backwalkover on high beam in order to compete beam. & last but not least, a front tuck, front handspring stepout front handspring and a round off back handspring back tuck. I am going to assume you don't...

It means darling daughter i think. Basically when people say "DD" they are referring to their daughter.

Full on floor, yurchenko vault & giants on bars! I have never been afraid to try a skill when I am first learning but giants are really giving me a run for my money eeek. You all are so advanced!

Shes not "too old" at all! Theres plenty of girls in her age division who are thirteen+ in level 7/8. I was convinced at the beginning of the season I would be the only one in my age division but it turns out there were plenty of other girls my age too. Heck, there is even three girls at my...

She would also need a clearhip, baby giant & a front tuck to compete level five bars and floor (Sorry if she already has those! My mistake.) Those are alot of skills to polish and get to compete level five! However i think if she works hard enough she could get the skills she needs over the...

The best advice i've recieved for getting past a fear is from Lizzy Leduc VIA instagram (ha!). She said to "Just go for it once and after that you will realize it isn't so bad." You just have to make yourself go. You have been doing this skill forever and haven't hurt yourself yet. What makes...

A few weeks before states I started getting nervous about my front handspring layout in particular and wouldn't even throw a front handspring tuck on floor. Eventually I just started doing them on tumble track & reworking my confidence on it. I didn't really say anything to the coaches because...

Does the level six floor need two or three floor passes? I do FHS FT, BHS layout, BHS tuck. Is that OK? Am i getting unnecessary deducations if i am doing an extra pass?

1) I have a pike jump in my beam routine! Or did..The coach wants to take it out, but i am very determined to prove to her that i can do it with the appropriate height she is looking for (horizontal). What are some conditiong drills or flexibility drills i can do to get it higher? I dont think...

At my gym most of the 7th grade through highschool aged girls wear a sports bra with a leotard pulled down with GK shorts. It doesn't hurt on bars haha but our leotard is usually pulled down to our belly buttoms.

I definitely understand what you mean. Girls my age are level eights/tens on my team & then theres me..I try not to let it bother me so much because theres really nothing i can do about it! I just try to remind myself those girls have been doing it since they were five while i started in eight...

I really want to try those grips now! It helps that they are so much cheaper than English bulldog too! Thanks you so much guys! Do you guys prefer narrow or regular? I was using some girls grips the other day and they were pretty narrow. I kind of liked them (i thought it was easier to feel/grip...

What grips do you guys recommend? I think I am going to have to buy new ones this week. I currently use English Bulldog but I want to try something new because my current pair of grips got slick really fast. I was thinking Bailie, U.S glove or Ten-0 but I have no experience with any of those...
