Hey, I was at gymnastics yesterday and I can do a round off back handspring again! Because I broke my arm doing a standing back handspring about 4 months ago and I couldn't do it or anything else for another 3 months and I just got back into gymnastics about a month ago and I have all of my skills back already, and I also did an aerial on the floor! It was a side/cartwheel aerial! I'm really excited because if I fix up all my skills, well perfect them and get all of my skills looking perfect and really nice I will be able to compete!
Just thought that I should share. If you have broken your elbow (like I did) and you think that you'll never be able to do gymnastics again, think again. I thought the same thing when I broke my arm but then I'm back at gym doing everything that I was doing!!

Thanks ellzgym for sharing your experience and congrats on the road to coming back :) I will share your story with a girl at my DD gym who also broke her elbow. I am sure it will give her some encouragment! Way to hang in there and wish you the best this year!
 
I'm so glad you're going to compete again! Thanks for sharing.
 
Thanks for the replies and yes I hope that it does help that girl that broke her elbow! Thanks henrik, I just have to get my routines perfect and then I'll be able to!! =]
