I have a meet next week and my new grips won't come for another 2 weeks. The little piece of leather between the two finger holes are tearing and I'm afraid it will rip soon. What can I do to make them last just a bit longer? I've been putting a little piece of tape on the leather part between...

^^^ just curious to know why you recommended jumping jacks. Lol.

I went to gym the day after I got my wisdom teeth out (all 4) and nothing bad happened. I just didn't do jumps or back tucks and stuff because that hurt my mouth when I landed.

In college especially your first year you have a lot of open blocks (periods). Some days you may just have 2 classes at an hour each with the rest of the day doing whatever you want.

I disagree with older girls wanting more fitted sweatshirts. All the girls on team here and kids at school in general like the more casual loose fitting oversized hoodies. Also pinnies are popular here in California too.

When I say hoodie I mean like a pullover with the drawstrings. I like the loose fitting ones better, they look more casual and if you wear it out after gym practice in the cold, it doesn't cling to your skin (or sweat). Logos can go on the lower back or the front I guess. I like how it looks on...

I too would prefer hoodies. They seem more sporty if that makes sense. I also like pinneys. Not many people wear them and they are in fashion today (kind of) especially in the summer over a tank top (or maybe even a Leo on your way to gym) they're fun to wear.

Hmm. I hope there is not too much of a difference especially at meets if they have the other type. I'm on the heavier 120-130 pound side.

What are soft rails exactly? I'm curios to see what our gym has. Do most gyms have soft?

I believe hips. I am not positive though

Around here we see it a lot in level 7. I think because they are simply fun to do. At our gym, whenever we have free time with the level 3 and 4s, they always insist on doing them

The 2nd day after using my grips, I got my kip. It was a happy day lol

The question is though, will you really want to be competing much more simpler skills at 20 years old in college?

Mine do and I'm a level 8 gymnast and naturally flexible.
