    Gymanstics - Does it stunt your growth?

    Fortunately or unfortunately I am finding gymnastics at the older age of 21. From articles I've read, males usually stop growing anywhere at 21 or possibly 22 years of age. If I am still growing in height, I don't want to compromise that by doing too much gymnastics. Does anyone know if...

    How do you do a Cody on the trampoline?

    I must be doing something incorrectly. I cannot for the life of me do a Cody on the trampoline. I'm sure this board knows what a Cody is, but in case you don't (or maybe I'm thinking of the wrong name) it's either a back 3/4 to your stomach or a front drop to your stomach, after you hit your...

    Which way am I twisting on my Barani?

    I do my Baranis as if I am doing a left handed roundoff without any hands. Am I twisting to my left or to my right? I am asking because I am learning front fulls and I can do them, but the reason I couldn't do them is because I was doing half a twist then the other half I was doing the...

    I need help keeping my legs straight in my back fulls.

    So I can do my full twisting backflip on the trampoline, but for the life of me I can't keep my legs straight! I practiced layouts with my arms to my side, but when I tried it in the twist I forgot to use my arms to initiate the twist. So, I started practicing my layouts with my arms crossed...

    Olympic Songs

    Does anyone know the names of the Olympic songs?! I know there are "The Offical Album For Beijing 2008 Olympic Games One World One Dream" and the Team USA Soundtrack, but neither of those have those really epic songs I heard on the Olympics! I can't really hum you a tune on the internet, nor...

    Biomechanics of Gymnastics

    Yeah, I know that term isn't probably used here a lot on these forums. I'm not sure, I'm fairly new here... What I'm wondering is, is there a place where I can learn WHY certain body positions and timings to twist, etc work in gymnastics? I know that sounds very vague, but seriously...

    Scores?

    Anyone know where you can look at scores from Women's gymnastics? Specifically Nastia's bar routine, where she fell backwards on her half twisting double front? Thanks!

    Gymnastics Levels...

    Is there any place I can look where it has all of the levels (for tumbling) and the prerequisites to get to the next level? I've found a site, but it only goes to level 5... Tumbling Thanks!

    2 Questions

    1) Where is a good place I can get a good explanation of how twisting works in the air? I am a beginner in gymnastics but I want to starting adding some twists for the diving board. 2) How do you use the chat function on these boards? I can see the chats, but I have no idea where to type...

    Hey, I'm 21 Male and I just started =D.

    lol. Yeah, a little older than the usual, I know. But tumbling is so fun =D. I am a beginner and I can do a messy standing backtuck, and a messy BHs (looks kinda like a backtuck with hands, lol). I have a few questions, though. Where is a good place to learn about twisting in the air? I...
