Women Successful comeback

[Gym_momma]

Are there examples of gymnasts who quit in their teens and then made a successful comeback in their 20s? Looking for some inspiration!

What do you mean by a successful comeback? Returning in their 20s and competing at what level?

I stopped doing gymnastics in 8th grade and then started doing rec tumbling in college. That was fun. If I had attended a college with a club gymnastics program, I probably would have done that snd enjoyed it too.

Probably you need to define success. There are gymnasts that have had children and then returned to the sport, which is probably even harder, but they might have never stopped training.
I think there's Chile's Barbara Achondo who went to do dance, had children, and is now at around 40 competing for Chile at a decent level. Again not sure how much did she stop doing gymnastics.
