‘Bama has some really great leos.
amygym:
WOW, this is a beautiful vault! It’s Alabama’s Kayla Hoffman, from the Metroplex Challenge last weekend. Seriously!!! Look at that block, the extension, clean, precise twisting, and a stick! AWESOME! 9.925 well earned!

Team Event Finals
I was just thinking that it might be interesting to have team event finals. It would be just like regular event finals, except most of the team competes, and whoever gets the highest score gets the recognition of being the best country on bars/beam/floor/vault. The downside is that gymnastics meets are already long enough, and it might be really hard on the gymnasts.

I loved that leotard
When I broke my arm, the doctor told me they would have to cut my leo off if I needed surgery. I got very upset (I was only 11, after all) and I didn’t calm down until my mom showed me that they would cut it along the seam so she could sew it right back up, good as new. My arm was bent crazy out of shape, and all I cared about was my leotard. That’s pain medicine for you. In the end,...

Health is the most important thing
It’s scary how many gymnastics pictures I see are from tumblrs focused on being skinny. Gymnasts are skinny because they work out so much, not because they starve themselves. If you have a skinny body type, then it’s healthy to be skinny, but if you’re starving yourself and working out too much, then you are harming your body. There are things in life that are more important than...
