i know someone might be reading this... and i hope they do....
hey my name is salma and im 12 years old ive been wanted to be an olympic gymnast like shawn jhonson and nastia liukin and i work out everyday, i run around my neightborhood i go on my bike... i practice my flexibility at home all the time and i have no breaks at the gym... i enjoy it and love it.. i do montages on videos and ill post videos on youtube to see how hard i work., thumbs up so people can read this and watch my vids
i compete in gymnastics and its really hard for me because im not goood under pressure.every time i gett up i feel like puking...gross...becuz my last name starts with ca so i will always be first...stinks to be me.
This is amazing im also a gymnast but im out for awhile do to an annkle injury :( but i hopefully get to go back this week but i will never be as good as them because i started to late in my life
@SuperShNaNa aww sorry to hear about the ankle injury but it comes with the sport. i just tore my rotators cuff in my arm (shoulder) im a level 9 gymnast and competed as a 12 year old. i just turned 13 last week.! and if yhu try hard at practice im sure yhu could be amazing!
Great montage! I always watch this video!! I am a level 7 and I hate competing with all that preassure, but I enjoy being surrounded by so many people watching. It's just crazy when you need to do like, almost perfect in front of so many people. That is what gets me under so much preassure.
Anyways,
Great montage, I love this video so much it is one of my favorites! What level are you in now?
Hii I' an elite level gymnast and have been for about a year now and I just wanna say that when i first started out I was soo nervous I would bounce on every pass! I was nicknamed tigger! but you just have to imagine that your alone in a bubble yourin your gym practicing your routine for yourself no noe else! it really helped me! I really love your video it's amazing I'm not a parkette but my Gym is pretty tough!! x
soo tru man, gymnastics is soo hard andd they goout there with there heads held high and even if they fall they still have a smile on there face. Serously gymnastics is really hard 4 people hu arnt a natural. Really great video btw xoxo
this is a great montage! i can totally relate to this, being a competitive gymnast, and also the fact that I just got a badly twisted ankle and a HEEE-UGE painful blood blister yesterday, (on one of my last pratcices) and my competition is less than 4 days away. :'(
i was a level 7 when i turned 6 but i recently quite because i broke my leg and thedoctor said i had exreme joint and tendon injuries and if i went back i would most likely have to get surgery again and i just got out of my cast... now i dance and cheer
i just started boys gymnastics lol.. after looking at this im quiting! jk but seriously i love pushing myself to the limit. its the best feeling people say this is tough and it is but i love the feeling of it all. but doing floor is bomb!
beautiful montage :) although i am a rhythmic gymnast i understand what you mean. obviously i don't know exactly what the pressure is like in AG, but even as a rhythmic gymnast i feel a huge amount of pressure to perform well. so i really admire the parkette gymnasts:)
Yes, i love this video. I am a gymnast too and it inspires me. Gymnasts can eat whatever they want, most of us are just kids. We may be able to do things that normal kids can't do, but we can still eat whatever we want to, as long as we don't eat too much junk food. We just have to be smart about what we eat, just like anyone else.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
even if u aren't elite u get pushed really really hard. And in this video it shows some of the gymnasts eating pizza and u aren't allowed to do that when u are a gymnast cuz u have a really strict diet
How do you know that? I am a gymnast and I don't have that strict diet. I can eat whatever I want... I mean, your life hasn't changed just because yoy start doing gymnastics...
parkettes are the true gymnastics super heros just think about it could you go through that i have a i survived i went there i was one of those girls i was an elite parkette gymnast!!!! and what we do is incredable we learnt how to fly they push us as hard as they want to push us and thats what makes a good gymnast!
yeah, 'kristenhulsey' i completely agree, really what's with all the negative montages about gymnastics (?) i made a vid about that once though, the good parts of gymnastics.
good montage! I am in gymnastics too. But i am kinda knew and I am only on level 5 and I am not in the competing team. I want to get better before I compete but I have a meet in february and march!
Good luck with your training. The first few months are really difficult, then you start getting new skills, which makes it just a blast. Once again, good luck.
Yeah I know what you mean. The parkettes really are heros. I saw all of the Parkettes thingy on CNN, and the coaches are really hard on them. I am a gymnast and my coaches are really nice so I am really lucky. I live in PA only a few hours away from Allentown where they train.
im not a gymnast but i still cant believe how athletes who put in so much hard work and dedication from such a young age (like gymnasts) get such little attention or credit whilst big headed, talentless sportsmen (like soccer players) are treated like royalty. What are Parkettes?
This reminds me of my gymnastics training. The coach trained us so hard. Alot of the girls who trained there left, and now have serious under-weight problems. I love gymnastics but there is a limit to how much you can push some one at such a young age. 0.51-0.53 brought a tear to my eye. xxx
"The coach trained us so hard. Alot of the girls who trained there left, and now have serious under-weight problems. I love gymnastics but there is a limit to how much you can push some one at such a young age."
That´s why I call it a legalized form of child abuse.
I read a book about this girl who trained at parkettes in like the 1980's and it was sad how she explained what she had to go through she was weighed before practice and after and if you gained a pound the coahc would scream at you and call you fat this girl was 17 and only 102 pounds and considered fat by her coach
ok adding to my other comment im a gymnast i don't have any videos of me doing gymnastics yet but i will and i love what i do i have traveled all over the world because of gymnastics well not exactly every where but you know what i mean and yea as i said i love gymnastics so.... much that i would do anything to achieve and also Shawn Jonhson is my idol because she never gave up and she is a wonderful gymnast LOL BYE!!!!!!
adding to my other comment ye. im a gymnast and i love what i do its very hard and you go threw pressure every day i have traveled all over the world not exact every where to many places because of gymnastics and i love it so..... much that i would do any thing to achieve!!!!!!!!!
i agree with u!! i'm a level 7 as well and man i crack. But they figure out a way to deal with it. so i guess that means that everyone has to deal with pressure.
I dont know what program charloadams uses but I use movie maker and to slow down clips you scroll through the effects untill you find an effect called slow down, half then you drag it into the clip you want to be slowed down
Very poignant video. I love this song Superman (It's not Easy). I too once had dreams of gymnastics glory. It indeed is not easy. Great job on your montage! :)
hmm. i've heard of some really awful places in wyoming you should probably stay away from, but i haven't heard of any really serious ones. sorry i couldnt help =[
this is so sad but really true and I'm glad you made a video I'm not in gymnastics but I really really love it and to those who want to give up sometimes remember that you have an awesome talent that many girls are jealous of(including me). Also remember that everything is going to be ok in the end. Thats what my mom always says. So you can take it or leave it.
One thing is to enjoy gimnastics, but these girls are abusing their bodies without realizing that, for that silly one minute of fame and the overpriced trophy, for that one who we call "the winner", there are thousands of others so-called "loosers" become insecure, sad, fustrated, and psychologically scarred, since most of them grow up considering themselves "unworthy" and "not good enough". All because of that silly and overated notion of being "winners"
i used to train like that, too, and i dont think its so much about winning. its more about becoming the strongest and best you can be. it seems pretty torturous, i can understand your point, but thats just the sport of gymnastics. you're not in it to just have some fun.
See parkette's isnt for people who want to have fun.They're serious about this shit!!If you start up and are really good at it and you want to get serious and have a chance at the olympics THEN you need to go a professinal gym where they work you so hard you wish that you never started then you find out how much fun you have and you never want to quit
sure gymnastics is tough but that is why really good gymnast love it. they like the challenges and the way you can show off a coach after they said you couldnt do it but you did it...perfect... gymnastics is a great sport this is a great montage and determined gymnasts will do whatever it takes,thats the sport and even if you arnt "the winner" you still achieved greatness and you did what people call impossible
its a shame more ppl havent viewed this very poignant video. If they did, maybe they would realize just HOW very demanding and short lived gymnastics really is!
Just because the gym is so hard doesnt mean that they dont have alot of good memories too. they probably the first time they nailed a double back or something.
im a gymnast and the trainers arent always mean and sometimes you have to cry because ur scared or dissappointed with urself gymnastics will do that to you...
Great montage and so very fitting. I can't even begin to imagine the strength of spirit, determination and love for the sport a Parkette gymnast must have to endure that gym and succeed.
cry me a riva- suc it up an go- there coaches r only how mean they are because hat is wut the girls want- thats the only was that they can make their goal! so cry me a riva build ,me a bridge an get ovh it!
This video is amazing, i made me cry lol, your right these girls are herod, i look up to them to, I myself am going to parkettes in febuary, for an international competetion,i hope to see someone from the gyms elite, this montage is great good work,
I'm not trying to be rude, just saying that I quit, and I had my round off back hand spring back tuck at age 6!! And I got my round off back hand spring at age 5, and a double twist at age 7 and 1/2! I could be elite...aren't those pretty good skills for those ages?
Your saying 8 years of gymnastics won't get me to be an elite? I did it from age 4 to 7, and then then quit, and I have started up again, from age 9 to 12.
Caligymnast, 4 years could not make you be a elite gymnast. If you dont have your backhand spring after 5 years of doing gymnastics, and your still having trouble with it, the truth is, your not born flexable so dont worry that much abotu it.. because it didnt ruin your elite pro career because you never had one!
does anyone have a yousendit account please i really need to use on e mail me on youtube if u do because i need a user name and a password please just to uplode a video.
When I said "of ever being a gymnast" I mean of ever being an elite gymnast.
It's so heartbreaking :'[
Any advice to do to REALLY help with back flexibility/strength. Please, give me as much advice and as many stretches that could help me. I am 11 and weigh 112 lbs. I am not big, just the right size for my height (I'm 5'3), but do you think that I could get into state competitions at age 15 at about 120 lbs??
hi, I've got a video on splits if that helps you at all, I'll eventually be doing one on back and shoulder flex, but it's not up yet. And ofcourse you can get into state comps! Find a fun supportive club that provides the right stuff for you and enjoy it as much as you can
It's my dream, but I still need my backhand spring. People laugh that I don't have my backhand spring and I've been doing tumbling for 4 years. The most painful thing to think of, was that I started gymnastics at age 5, but gave up gymnastics for 4 years. I could be at world level. But those 4 years of not doing gymnastics RUINED my elite/pro career of ever being a gymnast. It's really hard to think about!!
wow i definately know how you feel!! i started gymnastics at age 3, and quit for 4 years as well and am now only just starting back again =( its really sad and i hate myself for quitting.. ='(
can def sympathise with that, I gave it up for only one year tho, but my body changed so much during that time that i'm stiil trying to get back skills i had previously. Just don't give up!
I am so happy someone realizes the pressure that these girls go under. Sure, I only started gymnastics about 3 monthes ago, but I have been doing tumbling for 4 years. They do put ya under lotsa pressure! =]
Also, I think if you made a montage about "Sharky" it would be awesomely cool. (Just a suggestion, not trying to boss you around..LOL)
I love that mount at 2:10

See parkette's isnt for people who want to have fun.They're serious about this shit!!If you start up and are really good at it and you want to get serious and have a chance at the olympics THEN you need to go a professinal gym where they work you so hard you wish that you never started then you find out how much fun you have and you never want to quit

sure gymnastics is tough but that is why really good gymnast love it. they like the challenges and the way you can show off a coach after they said you couldnt do it but you did it...perfect... gymnastics is a great sport this is a great montage and determined gymnasts will do whatever it takes,thats the sport and even if you arnt "the winner" you still achieved greatness and you did what people call impossible
great montage

its a shame more ppl havent viewed this very poignant video. If they did, maybe they would realize just HOW very demanding and short lived gymnastics really is!

Just because the gym is so hard doesnt mean that they dont have alot of good memories too. they probably the first time they nailed a double back or something.

Great montage and so very fitting. I can't even begin to imagine the strength of spirit, determination and love for the sport a Parkette gymnast must have to endure that gym and succeed.

I'm not trying to be rude, just saying that I quit, and I had my round off back hand spring back tuck at age 6!! And I got my round off back hand spring at age 5, and a double twist at age 7 and 1/2! I could be elite...aren't those pretty good skills for those ages?

If you read the posts she made as caligymnast28 and then as nicolexcheer, none of it adds up. lol
She said she can't do a back handspring now, but at 7 1/2 she could do a double twist and I'm like what the???

Your saying 8 years of gymnastics won't get me to be an elite? I did it from age 4 to 7, and then then quit, and I have started up again, from age 9 to 12.
4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12...8 years!!
nicolexcheer 4 years ago
its not that easy.
trust me...
from age 4-12 you would have had much more luck... but it takes alot of work.
kifsorkelsAAY 4 years ago
Caligymnast, 4 years could not make you be a elite gymnast. If you dont have your backhand spring after 5 years of doing gymnastics, and your still having trouble with it, the truth is, your not born flexable so dont worry that much abotu it.. because it didnt ruin your elite pro career because you never had one!

When I said "of ever being a gymnast" I mean of ever being an elite gymnast.
It's so heartbreaking :'[
Any advice to do to REALLY help with back flexibility/strength. Please, give me as much advice and as many stretches that could help me. I am 11 and weigh 112 lbs. I am not big, just the right size for my height (I'm 5'3), but do you think that I could get into state competitions at age 15 at about 120 lbs??
CaliGymnast28 4 years ago
hi, I've got a video on splits if that helps you at all, I'll eventually be doing one on back and shoulder flex, but it's not up yet. And ofcourse you can get into state comps! Find a fun supportive club that provides the right stuff for you and enjoy it as much as you can

No, I am not a parkette.
I only DREAM of being in Parkettes.
It's my dream, but I still need my backhand spring. People laugh that I don't have my backhand spring and I've been doing tumbling for 4 years. The most painful thing to think of, was that I started gymnastics at age 5, but gave up gymnastics for 4 years. I could be at world level. But those 4 years of not doing gymnastics RUINED my elite/pro career of ever being a gymnast. It's really hard to think about!!
CaliGymnast28 4 years ago
wow i definately know how you feel!! i started gymnastics at age 3, and quit for 4 years as well and am now only just starting back again =( its really sad and i hate myself for quitting.. ='(
lauramary92 4 years ago
can def sympathise with that, I gave it up for only one year tho, but my body changed so much during that time that i'm stiil trying to get back skills i had previously. Just don't give up!
luvgymnastics 4 years ago
I am so happy someone realizes the pressure that these girls go under. Sure, I only started gymnastics about 3 monthes ago, but I have been doing tumbling for 4 years. They do put ya under lotsa pressure! =]
Also, I think if you made a montage about "Sharky" it would be awesomely cool. (Just a suggestion, not trying to boss you around..LOL)
Keep up the amazingggg workkk! =]
