    • I am an eleven year old gymnast. I am in 8th level and I had the same problem as your daughter. For starters, has she tried using grounded up chalk? All you need is a little bit of it and it works great. The only problem with that is it will stain your bars and be scratchy but you can wash it off with a washcloth occasionally. The only other thing I can think of is using bar grips for her hands. I use them often but they do create blisters if on too long.

      • HI I AM TEN YEARS OLD AND I AM A LEVEL 8 GYMNAST AND I LOVE DOING ALMOST ALL OF THESE SKILLS. AND I NEVER REALLY HAD THAT PROBLEM BUT WHEN I WAS LITTLER I WAS SCARED OF EVERY COMBINATION ON THE FLOOR. SO DOYOU HAVE ANY TIPS TO HELP MY OLDER SISTER IN LEVEL FIVE

    • i have some tips. let her practice jump off the low bar a few times. then, have her start catching bars from little distances then grow the distances the more consistant she is.

  • It's usually called a cut in or a cut out sometimes even a cut in-cut out if they are connected. It's when you move your arm out of the way and put your leg over the bar (for a cut in) or move your arm out of the way to move your leg off of the bar (cut out)

  • I am a self taught gymnast but the good part is I’m able to because I have floor mats, a bar, and a beam.
    So since it was the new year I did a planner to try to do certain skills on certain days from easiest to hardest, not including the thing I already know how to do. I’m going to try to do a back layout by 1/27/21.

  • SO I WAHT TO BE IN GYMNASIT BUT I CAN NOT OR I CAN BUT THAT WILL BE HARD SO IS GYMNASIT IS LOOK FUN SO THAT WAS GOOD TODAY I HOP YOU GUYS HAVE FUN TODAY BYE.

  • I am writing a book with two level 9 gymnasts in it. What are some tricky skills on bars that they should be working on?

    • Level 8: Minimum of 1 Bar Change 1 Skill (minimum of “B”) with flight (the mount is ok) or turn (cannot be the mount or dismount) 1 Skill (minimum of “B”) which is from one of the following groups of elements: underswings, clear hip circles, stalder circles, circle swings or hechts A Salto dismount which is a minimum of “A” value. Level 9: Level 9 routines must include 3 A’s, 4 B’s, and 1 C gymnast may also include full turn in handstand skills, which are Ds.You can also find more about level 9 routines on bars here: https://www.cgmknows.com/blog/2016/09/03/jo-level-9-bars-routine-construction/
