    Leg Cast Update....

    Ok so I am leaping through the house with joy and screaming right now! Actually...no I'm not I'm sitting here typing this out. I exagerrate but I'm hoping this will get you exicted too! I found out that my doctor found out that my bone has actually healed even though it still looked broken when...

    so- how much can you do with a cast?

    I caught dd (one day in her cast) attempting to cut cardboard with kitchen scissors - with her casted hand! :eek: So - since I know there have been a lot of cast wearers here - how much is too much? I told her this was not a good idea to place too much pressure on that hand, especially so...

    recoop after cast removal - simple break?

    DD was just casted for a torus fracture of her distal radius (right by the wrist). Dr says it's a mild break but the ortho felt more comfortable casting it. 3-4 weeks in the cast. Here's the dilemma - dd's first meet ever is Nov 15, the day after they remove the cast. We can push the removal to...

    Coaches kip to horizontal cast level 5

    Hi there. My daughter is a level 5 seems to be completing her kips (low and high bar) nicely-straight arms etc. On her high bar kip, she finishes and stops and is getting a deduction for an extra swing becuase she swings her legs forward (after her stop) to get a high enough cast. If anyone...

    Coaches Drills for kip cast

    I am looking for drills my DD can use to work on the kip cast, she has a great straight arm kip and a nice above vertical cast, but one just does not flow into the other. At gym they work routines, but do no drills on this skill, proably because everyone else has it beautifully. She has access...

    Cast handstands?

    My daughter has a hard time casting to handstand. Her coaches have given her alot of useful info on how to get to vertical and she can almost get there. Does anyone have any ideas that would maybe help her get to handstand? Trish

    Coaches Cast Handstand

    I'm learning cast HS (yay). Problem is, I'm 5"7, so that makes it difficult straight off. Not impossible, just harder. But I'm determined to get it. And that's a legs-together one. I know the theory of cast to handstand, somewhat. It's really important to lean over the bar (and I...
