    WAG She's made for Optionals not Compulsory

    Maybe some coaches can answer this question for me. I have heard or read this several times either from a parent or a coach referring to a gymnast, they say (referring to a compulsory gymnast) she is not a compulsory type gymnast but more of an optionals gymnast. I don't quite understand that...

Where do you get info about this? I know the stock answer will be "Trust your coach" which I do, but...

    Rules on Dropping back a level in compulsories (US)

    Okay - so I'm learning loads about the US system, but can you tell me - on the compulsory levels I know that you have set moves that you have to include in the floor routine. Are the routines laid down exactly or are they like ours, a list of moves that must be in the routine but open to...
