There have been some big transitions at our gym with the old level 4 coach leaving and a new coach taking over the 4's. I come in on nights the 5/6's practice and supervise their stretching, conditioning, and drill stations. With the change, I will be helping out the 4's as well.
My question...
So Olivia participated in the New Year's Invite in Disney World. We went up New Year's Eve and the gym hosted a "party" at the hotel. All the girls of all levels hung out and had a great time!!!
On friday the girls had practice at the meet spot. It was a 2.5 hour timed practice with all...
My daughter's gym has recommended she get palm protectors. She loves bars and spends all of her free gym time on them and her hands are getting torn up. They say she is too young or too low of a level (can't remember which one) to get dowel grips, but recommended the palm protectors. Now...
Hello Everyone
I thought I would stop in and introduce myself. My granddaughter (9 yrs old) is a Level 4/5 gymnast for Buckeye Gymnastics.
I am so proud of her and the progress she has made in the last year and a half.
Nana hasn't missed any of her competitions and I love to watch her...
Another GREAT meet....
I am not sure how she keeps doing it, but her All Around score keeps getting higher and higher. She is not even halfway through her meet season and she is already beyond what I was hoping for at States which are not until March. I am starting to wonder when it is going...
First of all I must say I am so proud if my DD and her teammates, they did awesome.
DD did very well. I was hoping she would finish in the top half of her age group and she did!! There were 21 girls in her age group. They gave out medals to 11th.
She also had her personal best floor and...
I have a question. I had my first meet this weekend and since I am having a mental block about the ROBHS right now I just did a roundoff, stopped, and then did a BHS in my routine. My score wasn't very good and I was wondering how much of a deduction it is for not connecting the Roundoff and the...
Hey Everyone!
My first L4 meet is in two days and I am super excited/nervous. I have never gone to a meet before so I don't really know totally what to expect. Today we have our last practice before the meet (which I desperately need) but it's snowing like crazy outside and we didn't have...
DD has her L4 State Meet on Saturday. If anyone is through with all the fairies could you send them our way ??!!!
Thanks in advance. There are 21 girls in her age group.
I've posted her floor. I missed her bars. She fell on beam and doesn't want me to post it. In fact she doesn't really even want to look at it....lol! And vault is vault so I think I am just going to post floor until next meet.
Please let me know what you think she should work on to improve...
I Am a Level for gymnast and my first meet is comming up Sunday. I need help on my Long-Hand Pullover and Round off backhandspring. My coaches say my shoulder flexibilaty is not good and im really tight in my shoulders and that thats why im not making them both. I really want to do good on my...

Wow, I can't believe L4 is over! It literally flew by! Kylie had her state meet this week-end and she did awesome! We are so proud of her!
She started on bars, which is her favorite event. She did a very clean routine with just a little step-out on her dismount. Scored a 9.575, so she is...
OK states has come and gone. It seems like yesterday I was thinking this season would never start, and here we are half way thru with states being done.
I wish I could tell you that I had a state champ on something, but I don't, I do have the vault and all around runner up in my house. Bug...
Madi did good but had some falls today.
She started off on vault and arched quite a bit on the handstand so 8.2
Bars was looking great but fell on her shoot through and got a 7.9
Beam was not so good:( She had a rough beam day. She fell twice and almost fell I think two more times, 6.25.
She...
Hello. Our coaches are concerned that our level 4 team is missing something(s) on beam, but they have not been able to identify the issues from reviewing the routine sheets and have not gotten much feedback from judges after meets. The highest beam score on our small, first-year team was a...
I posted Bug's last meet on YouTube, and I think that some of you have seen it. Here is the links for those that have not and want to see it. Not as high AA as the other two, but still good for 3rd place.
Now we just wait states in a little over a week, then with the exception of our...
I am in level 4 and I had been working all last year to get my single leg shoot thru on the bar. One day I finally got it and way really excited. Then, we didn't practice them all summer because my coach wanted to focus on our skills for the next level (kips, squat ons). Then, when September...
Hi everyone. My first level 4 meet is next Saturday and I really need some good luck. I still don't have my shoot through on bars and my beam is a mess. I'm trying so hard to improve everything in the 4 practices I have until my meet. My heart is beating like crazy just thinking about it...
Hi. Judges, I need to ask you a question. In level 4 USAG bars, how much of a deduction is it if you jump slightly on your pullover, and drop you butt in the back hip circle dismount? Please answer and thank you!:)
