[quelita28]

So sometimes when they go to the gym they do their homework

and don't practice at all gymnastics that day or is the homework done after

gymnastics class?

[TheRockbunny11]

Okay this was awesome!

Um I know most people here do gymnastics like me :) but I'm starting dance has well soon and should I start ballet or contemporary? haha I know its got nothing to do with this video but I can't make a decision!

And once again this vid was realy entertaining to watch :) welll done!

[GymMonkeyy18]

@TheRockbunny11 i do ballet and gym. ballet helps with it a lot, i know that. but, its up to you in the end

[sup24590]

@TheRockbunny11 you sahould do ballet because its alot of fun and you never know your ballet teacher could teach you some contemporary but it is your decision

[gymnast450]

I would give up everything Just to be a gymnast..... You name it.. I would give it up...Just for the sport..

[CopGymnast861]

@gymnast450 I'm right there with you, it's just that my parents aren't. :(

What about at the age of 10?

[cupidgurl15]

I have a friend who wants to start but she's 19, she wants to know if she's too late? she used to do gymnastics when she was younger and continued off and on but hasn't done it since she was in 8th grade.

[ParanoidAndroidDA]

@cupidgurl15 Some (only a few) gyms run adult classes that are really popular and there's a mix of ages in them. If she wants to do it for fun then she should go for it.

[zouzounakiiilol]

[cherrypopstickle]

9:42 Fake nails in gym?

[xXGingertasticXx]

My god I wish I started when I was young.

It's easier to develop flexibility when you're little, and you're not scared of anything.

I'm a 15 year old level 7, and I started when I was 7.

[MinnieMonstarrr]

@Adrianax101 reading comment above gives you hope

[caitlynnnannn]

@adrianax101 and @minniemonstarrr just go for it, it'd never too late to start. There are girls at my gym that are 15 and just starting and we don't make fun of them because it's hard, Then you'll progress and be at higher levels(:

[MinnieMonstarrr]

@caitlynnnannn thanks. alot

[MinnieMonstarrr]

i want to start being a gymnist but im 12 and im afraid ill be to old to do it compared to other girls.

[welshgymnast123]

@MinnieMonstarrr its never to old to start gymnastics i started at 2 and im 14 going on 15 but im not that good because i only train 2-3 times a week at a proper gym there is lots of girls in my gym ust starting one of them is 17 soo

[MinnieMonstarrr]

@welshgymnast123 u just made me feel a whole lot better

[welshgymnast123]

@MinnieMonstarrr Haha :) honestly though if you want to join gymnastics you should because you learn loads and its really good fun plus you makee loads of new friends :)

[MinnieMonstarrr]

[79Testo]

[Lolracok2]

[peaceluvNgymnastics]

[SMJD4everlove]

yeah no this is nothing i dont do any of these and im in Gymnastics so yeah this is just retarted because alot of people cant even do that and your saying this is what it takes to be in gymnastics i mean...

[MsJDBbelieber]

gymnastics is so cool!! i would not be good at it though because im not flexable cant dance to save my life........also i play basketball year round with soccer and lax

[1414lizzy]

9:16 i have the same phone!!

[thefunchick11]

I'm 12 and starting....I'm level 4..I don't agree that 4-7 is likely to be better..that's not true you could start any age and still be great...

[StardollEdit]

@thefunchick11 I started gymnastics when I was 4 years old, and I trained 4 times a week for 4 hours that makes it 16 hours of training.

Now I'm 14 and in the nationals!x I'm training to go to the olympics!

When you start young you aren't really scared of anything then you grow up to a 10-11 year old you start losing your confidence!

Its better when you start young because your more flexible and you get a bigger chance of going into the Nationals or Olympics :)x

[cupidgurl15]

@StardollEdit good luck :D

[taylorxomakeup]

@thefunchick11 You're 12 and starting?! Omg I'm 12 too. I really want to start because I did when I was younger but had to stop. ): How is it?????
