Hey, I’m nearly 17 and have recently been really interested in learning Gymnastics again, i used to take part regulary and was able to do some skills like walk overs and back flips but nothing major. I would consider myself to still be reasonably flexible in the idea that i can still perform all basic skills and can practically do splits but i am very interested in participating again, am i too old to learn to perform at a decent level? Also im struggling with planning some form of training plan to increase flexibilty mainly but also strength, i understand that a coach is needed to learn basic skills but if you could help me devise some form of plan or schedule that i can do do possibly once or twice a day to help me improve that would be extremely helpful, thank you
so why u can't be a gymnaste...i'm sure that u can(i'm a gymnaste)also u can be a profissional gymnaste
It dosne't matter what age are u. As long as u can train and have good flexbailty to do moves. Youre fine!! Just keep praticing and you'll be the next big female gymnst...
and never give up
ya i agree
i know right
I'm a gymnast and I sounds like to me that your pretty good at floor so far, but it's not just floor it's also bar, beam and vault, but your experience will help you learn it faster and with a few classes and technique fixing (if needed) you could probably start competition in a couple of months.
I'm not a gymnast I was asking if I could be one
