Also...by keep practicing bars! It builds up your callouses and your skin. I had a few months break and went back to the gym today and did like 45 minutes of bars and got small rips on my hands and on the sides on the wrists, using the regular way of using tape grips under my grips like I usually do. So, keep working on bars helps to build up your skin!

lol :D I don't mean actually going to the refrigerator for the butter (or popsicles - that's a good one too!) for lip gloss. Like when you eat corn on the cob with butter, or something like that, and the butter gets on your lips, it's a good lip gloss like that, shiny and smooth lol. The popsicles actually color your lips even after you have wiped it off and don't feel it on. The strawberry[ Read More... ]

Butter-maybe it's just me, but that seems really gross! Popsicles and lollipops bug me if they're on my face. For lip gloss, I like the raspberry fruit spritzers, I think from covergirl.

Some of the gymnasts choose to take off their glasses for gymnastics practice, if their number for their glasses isn't too high and they are stll comfortable without glasses. The young boys and girls that need their glasses on use the bands on their glasses to keep it on. But if you can wear contact lenses and are old enough for them, etc. it is much easier than glasses especially for[ Read More... ]

Also, when you're wrapping the tape going from your wrist, around your finger, and back to your wrist, making the strips, don't make it tight, the tape shouldn't be pulled - which is true in general, huh?! :D

There's a couple pictures of the taping you can do on your hands at http://gymnasticscoaching.com/?p=2110 that we're talking about here, for under your grips. This one shows the tape being around just the middle finger; you can also do it around the middle and ring finger, to get a wider surface area more easily - I like the 2-fingers way better, it's comfortable: Here's one way how to do it,[ Read More... ]

I haven't tried all the links, maybe try those links again and it could work now if it was just a server issue or something. Which ones didn't work?
