DD's coaches want her to include a back extension-BHS combination on beam and DD began working them yesterday. She is having fun because she likes working skills she doesn't see a whole lot. However, in the mean time, she is tearing the heck out of her skin on her upper back in the center.
Is there anything I can do to help protect that area? DD isn't complaining but I can see the abrasion and can't comprehend how she can't feel it. I can't see how she is going to be able to obsessively work this skill (and she will because she is very close to getting the extension) without bleeding by next Wednesday. Would a thin piece of gauze and tape do any good without interrupting the feel for her? Or does she just need to build up a "back callous"? LOL
I don't want to bother our coach with this because she is getting a TON of parental flack over move ups right now so I'd rather just stay out of their way and leave our poor dear coach alone about the little stuff.
