    Off Topic What do competitive gymnasts eat in a day?

    Alright, this question comes out of nothing but pure curiosity (aka nosiness ) but I’m interested to know what a competitive gymnast would eat on a typical day. As a recreational “gymnast” (more like “constant faller” but whatever) I’d say I eat decently healthy but I do wonder what the more...

    WAG When do you eat during a meet?

    I'm asking this both out of a gymnast point of view and a coach point of view. 1. As a gymnast, I'm not allowed to take my bag into the competition room. Last year I just went with it, but by the last event I was mostly so thirsty I couldn't focus. How would you eat/drink during a meet? 2. I'm...

    Parents What/When Do You PARENTS Eat?

    I've seen plenty of conversations about what to feed the kids, especially with long drives and practices that stretch over the dinner hours. I feed my kids dinner in the car, but I struggle to feed myself. My son has 3 hour practices 30 minutes away from our house. They have a microwave and I'm...

    What to eat before\during meet?

    Okay, so I have a meet coming up and I have no idea what to eat before then. In the mornings, I'm never hungry, so I need ideas on what to eat before a meet. Also, some ideas on what to bring during the meet would be helpful too.

    WAG Do your children eat veggies? Is a multivit pill an alternative?

    So - is there anyone whose kiddies get a multivit? DD ate a lot of fruit and veggies, but some weeks ago started to get stomach cramps etc. She was actually never really sick for a long time, but her stomach/digestion often bothered her now when I look back. So we have been to several doctors...

    If you have to pack a lunch for your child to eat during practice, what do you put in it? My DD will practice from 8:30 to 1:30 three times a week, and she is supposed to bring a lunch. The gym is not air-conditioned, and it gets really hot in there. They also get an ice pop break during...

    does your child eat all the time?

    Ok, my dd (age 7) is in the gym 5-7 hours a week and it seems like she is hungry all the time. She will finish a big meal and ask for a snack minutes later. I've never been one to deny her food as long as she is making healthy choices but sometimes I have to wonder if she is really hungry...
