    WAG Looking for competitions (friendly meets) within Europe

    Heyho! Does anyone have an overview about upcoming competitions in Europe that are not Europeans? I mean meets, that allow participation of gymnasts from other countries. Something like this here: https://www.satus-uster.ch/zoc22/zoc-infoe.php but in the second half of the year. My gymnasts...

    Coaches Lacking motivation - Anyone else still in lockdown?

    Heya, thank you for the input! Like I already posted, it helped already to "complain". Last training we were having a blast with a ballet-like class (jumping excluded) to work on our leaps. We are quite good in yoga now, but modern dance sounds nice. I guess we will have some choreo sessions...

    Coaches Lacking motivation - Anyone else still in lockdown?

    Hey txgymfan, Thank you. I am based in Germany in a big city. I guess it helped me already to write down my feelings here. Afterwards I came up with a nice plan for todays zoom session. Looking forward to try it.

    Coaches Lacking motivation - Anyone else still in lockdown?

    Hey all, long time no see/read, we are in the second gym-lockdown since end of November (after being back for 3 months September/October/November). Hopefully we can return to outdoor training in April, but this also not for sure. In the beginning, we were all very motivated (the gymnasts and me...

    WAG Bar routine structure

    What about the straddled baby pak and then 1/2 turn kip. You can also start form a stalder position (4.202). One of my taller gymnast picked it up super fast. And bonus: 1 more CR fulfilled. Cheers, Zivaah

    WAG How are you all doing?

    Heyhey, I miss the gym a lot. I miss my girls, I miss teaching gymnastics. Now I try to teach my boyfriend a handstand. Still not the same. Our club cancelled all contracts for the coaches (however, they are claiming this is not a full cancellation, because they have substitution jobs like...

    Off Topic The Video Game Thread Strikes Back

    Baba yetu, yetu uliye... this song always gives me goose bumps. Right now I am playing a lot of Civ6 with my boyfriend. Stanley Parable is awesome, but i get major motion sickness with it. No way, I can play this game longer than 10 minutes. Talos Principle i can highly recommend. Puzzle game...

    Coaches Finding a place for a trip away with my gymnasts.

    Heya! In Germany you can find several gyms that you can rent for camps. Once we made a camp in Osterburg: https://www.sport-trainingslager.de/veranstaltungen/trainingslager/turnen/deutschland/sachsen-anhalt/osterburg/trainingslager-turnen-deutschland-sachsen-anhalt-altmarkt-osterburg.html...

    Off Topic The Video Game Thread Strikes Back

    Sorry not sorry, but Shepard is a male and Liara is his girlfriend (occasionally getting killed by Morinth). My Shep always falls in love with Asari :D. - And sorry, Ashley is dying everytime in Virmire. I never warmed up with her. I looked at the trailer for Horizon, was hyped and then...

    Off Topic The Video Game Thread Strikes Back

    I just recently played all of the mass effect games with my boyfriend together (not Andromeda)! Storywise still the best game, I have ever played. And your profile pic is awesome ;) afterwards there was a huge post-ME depression, because we haven't found a game comparable to this one yet and the...

    WAG Meet Director Pay

    I am always amazed how much money goes into gymnastics in the US. Meet entry here is maximum 25 Euros per gymnast. Normal is about 4 to 15 Euros. Meet director payment? - Volunteers, if there is some then it's 15 Euros per subdivision (also our judges do get 15 Euros per subdivision). I haven't...

    WAG Floor music fiasco.

    Heya, What about Aguas de Invierno? I know there is some violin inside, but for me it describes perfectly graceful with some edge! Give it a try ☺️ If you want to a have look how it looks like in a floor routine, check out Tessa Gerrits! Cheers, Zivaah

    Coaches Got my kip back

    Heya, do you guys know the feeling, when your gymnasts are training and it is starting itching everywhere because you want to get back at the apparatuses so badly? I had to quit doing gymnastics 8 years ago due to an injury and no chances to train on an lower level and I am still very...

    WAG What does "Allowed to walk-on" actually mean?

    And what about the University of Alaska? This has nothing to do with wanting someone else... And is just sad for everyone.

    WAG Ideal training hours

    In Germany it is like this: second column is the age, followed by how many times a week a kid should train and the training intensity per week. Homeschooling is not allowed in Germany and the text where I got this table from says, that the total training hours per week in countries with...
