WAG Goal setting?

[kassgymnast_]

I feel like I needed to start setting goals for the month because I'm starting slack in gym and I feel like I'm falling behind and losing some skills. Are these some good goals? (Btw I have 2 April meets)
And my typical scores are (we score lower because of the organization):
Vault- 8.0
Bars- 6.5
Beam- 8.75
Floor- 8.25
AA- 30-32

Your skills goals look fine. My coaches always told us not to set goals related to scores or places because every meet is different, you can't control how they will score you or how other people do.

Along with your big goals, I like the the idea of listing the small pieces that make up the big skills, or the small form corrections that lead to higher scores, along with a date to accomplish them. I recommend choosing 4-5 seemingly small items (increase angle of split jump/leap, small drills that lead to some of your bigger skills, a beam skill on a low beam, tight legs/toes on a particular skill). Choose a few small goals where you could see improvement in less than a week. If you have a video of your last meet, use that for ideas, or ask your coach where your deductions were. You will be surprised how small, form-related changes in one skill will carry over to the others. Good luck to you!
