Gah, I wish I could do that... And yea, I'm sure it is painful, but her coaches aren't doing anything that will hurt her. Any cheer,gymnastics,dance coach will tell you you need to push yourself harder to make yourself more flexible. And RGs/Contortionists know how to take care of their bodies. They're not just stretching all the time, it's strength training too: stretch a muscle work it out, stretch it out, work it out, etc. So their joints will be in better shape than most of ours in 10 years.
This is pretty neat to watch, but it looks almost torturous when they are stretching her. I almost wonder how long this will take to catch up with her. The body can only withstand so much, I envision her having a lot of problems once she grows older.
When they were pulling her arms back she looked like she was crying and was obv. uncomfortable and she kept fidgeting and shaking her legs around. It looks painful.
To be able to do what she can do is a gradual process. It's not like they just grab her leg and say YANK!!!!!! She stretches everyday of her life. More than once.
To be honest, as a rhythmic gymnast she wasnt that great: some of her rhythmic videos are on here, and she lacks height in her leaps, she isnt the strongest rhythmic gymnast, compared to say, Anna Bessanova.Irinka is a much better contortionist than a gymnast though. I think she has the best splits I have ever seen.
Very impressive. nicely put together. Thank you.

I'm pretty sure she's a rhythmic--thats normal for them. You should see her back bend though, why didn't it show that?
