    Gymnasts Floor Music Options

    These are the ones narrowed down from an even longer list of 144 songs... I will still do this though, see if it helps anymore.

    Parents Finish Times (Late Workouts)

    My practices are 6-9 pm on weekdays (2 days), and 8-11 am on weekends (1 day) + 30 minute commute. Definitely not ideal at all, but you have to do what you have to do when your closest "gym" with a comp team is 20 minutes away.

    Women Beam Progression

    Floor line, laser beam, low beam with panel mats (remove panels as you go), low beam, high beam with resi, high beam (spots can be used on any beam you need) This is the most common for my gym, but do what is the most comfortable for you

    NCAA NCAA Women's Regionals

    I hate how MSU and Kentucky are in the same regional. I really want both of them to make it to nationals.

    Women Floor Music Debate

    Option 2 seems pretty repetitive and is weirdly cut in some places, I like the 1st option better

    Women back handspring on beam

    I think it will be better for you to not work back handsprings on beam (especially at home), without proper training or experience for your safety. You are also not required to have a back handspring on beam in any level.

    Women Big Jump

    I will say, I am an xcel platinum this year (we have pretty such the same routines on all events), and I also competed High school (level 8 with level 9 bonus in my state), and I scored 1 26, 2 27s, and 1 29. So if your daughters does care lower scores, then I would suggest either moving to...
