    WAG Discussion of abuse in USAG - Nassar

    This is horrifying. This is very close to home and devastating in many ways. I've been sick about it all day, talking at length with other parents. Gymnastics Ontario released a letter to all members yesterday I think, and this particular coach's suspension was supposed to end Jan 26, but they...

    WAG Discussion of abuse in USAG - Nassar

    I really hate when people misuse the word "literally", but by God this whole thing has literally made me vomit and cry ugly tears.

    WAG Twice z day training?

    I'm just curious as to thoughts on breaking up training for higher level, homeschooled/modified regular schooled athletes? At what level might it begin to be beneficial? Or what age would work? What would an "ideal" schedule look like? What has been suggested is 7-11, am, an hour of warm ups...
