Hi, I'm not sure if anyone else has already asked this question as I have not been on chalkbucket often as of late. I was wondering about the reasoning behind devaluing the front handspring vault in Xcel Platinum to a 9.8 start value. Platinum is not equivalent to level 7, so why is our...

Hi! I recently started coaching a few rec classes at my gym and wanted to know if I could please be added to the coach's forum. I would still like to remain in the gymnast forum also as I am still competing. Thanks in advance!

I have just received the report for an MRI that I got Friday for my lower back. Obviously I will be seeing my orthopedic doctor and will listen to whatever he tells me, but I wanted to hear any success stories with this injury. I have been diagnosed with normal lumbar lordosis and a posterior...
