Interesting article - and a shame that girls feel like that. You'd think boys would have just as much to be self concious about since they need to wear cups in many sports - but maybe since they get used to that from the beginning its not a big deal. Gym class at school is always going to be a nightmare for many people (ugh - I hated changing for gym so much, and I generally liked my body at that age), but it's sad that a lot of girls have a hard time when it comes to team sports. I wonder if dancers, competitive cheerleaders, swimmers and gymnasts have an easier time transitioning since they've been wearing what are effectively undergarments coverage-wise to do their sport since before they even had breasts? You know, when compared to a girl on say a softball or basketball team.

Beam deductions

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get some help understanding my deductions on beam. I’ve been watching my videos back, but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly where the judges are taking the most off. If anyone is willing to take a look and give me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. I’m especially curious about execution deductions, rhythm/connection issues, and anything in my acro or dance that might be costing me. The judge started me at a 10 for this routine, and I got a 9.1
