    WAG Nerves help.

    I have by first meet in 5 years tomorrow. I joined mid-season and am currently slated to do one meet. My vault is solid. My bars was, but then I lost my grips, so I had to break in new ones today. My floor routine is self choreographed and doesn’t end exactly on the music. My beam is by far the...

    WAG Beam Nerves

    ok so I am having this huge issue with beam and competitions. I have always been one to never really get nervous or turn the nerves into adrenaline on every event other than beam. I’ve always been a bit nervous on beam but last comp season my nerves got so bad and have followed me through to...

    Hi guys and girls, I'm new here, my 8yr old daughter is a gymnast and swimmer so is very active and therefore healthy as well. Anyway, my first post is regarding a competition that she was competing in with her group at the weekend. The competition didn't go well, she felt like she lost her...

    WAG Pain killers for nerves?

    Not entirely sure if I picked the right forum or not, but DD has been having awful radial nerve inflammation / pain and we are waiting to find out the severity, but that takes quite a while over here. Which would be the best to use for nationals, if anyone knows, so she could compete without...

    Comp Nerves

    Whenever I am at a competition, I get extremely nervous, to the point that I actually shake. It affects me most on beam, where I tend to wobble on every skill and dance, just because I am so nervous. At training I stick around 5 routines in a row, minimal wobbles, but it all falls apart at comp...

    Parents Quitting because of nerves?

    DD age 10 is training to repeat L4 this year. This year she moved from a more laid back gym to a more competitive gym. She has gotten much stronger and her skills look great, but she has just told us that she thinks she is ready to quit gym. She says that 'it is very hard', which she says is...

"What if I fall" and i keep telling her "You've gotten 36.8 plus at all your meets this season!!!"...

    Meet Nerves!?

    So, tomorrow is my state meet, and this isn't my first competition season, but I'm EXTREMELY nervous. It has been this way the past few competitions, too. I'm very nervous before the meet, and then while I'm standing at any event before the judges salute at me, I'm shaking and feel like I have...

    Parents nervous before comp

    I know there's probably no magic cure for this, but I am sooo nervous before my six year old's comp tomorrow. She's only been at her new gym club for three months so many skills are quite new to her. She has to do cartwheel and backward walkover on beam, and squat on catch on bars, all of which...

    Parents VERY first meet tomorrow! Nerves and a question

    My 6-year-old has her very first meet tomorrow! It feels like it's been forever working up to this, since she started rec Kinder class at 4. So crazy to compare, since my 5-year-old DD starts her second season of t-ball, and after 2 weeks of practice they will already be playing games! With how...

    WAG Controlling nerves

    Every competition I get super nervous and mess up easy skills. I am level 7, I started gymnastics late so I don't have as much competition experience as other girls in my level. (I skipped a few levels). I get so upset and frustrated because I work so hard in the gym for 20+ hours a week and...
