    Is it worth it to quit gymnastics?

    I can totally relate to this. I quit my passion, gymnastics, early in high school. I knew it was the best choice for me and knew I wasn't going to the Olympics or anything. So sadly I quit I do miss it a lot and wish I could go back. However, I knew it was a good decision and ended up still...

    2016 Women's Artistic Gymnastics Olympic Team!

    Wow! I suppose they went with Gabby because of 2012, but I think Ashton would have been a better choice.

    2016 Women's Artistic Gymnastics Olympic Team!

    I definitely agree with you on every point made here. I'm honestly disappointed that Gabby is on the team. Also, what was the deal with all her coaching changes?

    WAG When to change gyms?
