I don't believe it.

More random facts:
-don't have weird issues with cheerleading (and that can be controversial in gymnastics circles lol)

-my best memory in gymnastics is winning bars at L8 states and sticking my double back the day after I basically had a breakdown because I kept falling on my second bar part after I'd been doing so well on bars all year. I remember that a lot because everything also went downhill pretty soon after that with my training group and favorite coaches. So that was a nice day and my other teammate won AA after she dealt with a lot of fear issues prior to states and had to work really hard to get her routines back.
