[quote=mandm;88477]Ok this is not much but at least it is something. Anyway do not put lotion on your hands before practice. Thats what my coach Mara Memmel ( Chellsie Memmels sister) had told me when I got my grips. Also make sure your grips are on tight because I got a really bad rip on the side of my hand from my new grips. Good Luck in team 5 mandm[/quote] If you do put lotion on your hands[ Read More... ]

Actually, Bela Karolyi never was a gymnast. I think he was a boxer. But his wife Marta Karolyi had some gymnastics experience. As you probably know, Bela is known for Nadia Comaneci's and Mary Lou Retton's all-around gymnastics gold wins, as well as coaching Dominique Moceanu and Kerri Strug, among others. You probably saw Bela on the NBC coverage as a frequent guest commentator - now he runs the[ Read More... ]

Paul Hamm had a really really long wait before his high bar routine at the Athens 2004 Olympics - it was after the crowd's booing of the judges' scroing of Alexei Nemov's high bar routine. Paul went on to hit his high bar routine, and won the all-around. You can't control when it will be your turn to go and when the judges are ready for you, you learn that from when you compete compulsory. Alicia[ Read More... ]

Martha Karolyi on psychological warfare: [QUOTE]Martha Karolyi said Alicia Sacramone was made to wait too long to compete on the balance beam, causing her to lose her concentration. Sacramone fell off the beam, got a low score and pushed the U.S. farther behind the Chinese team. The U.S. finished with silver. "It was an extremely long time," said Karolyi.

First Cbina's men's gymnastics team wins gold, and now China's women's gymnastics team wins gold too. Women's gymnastics team finals: 1. China 188.900 2. USA 186.525 3. Romania 181.525 Maybe this will break the media coverage of the Chinese breaking under pressure, especially in their home country...could it be easier to handle pressure at a younger age...USA Gymnastics President Steve Penny[ Read More... ]

Good idea for pushing the sport out of the idea that it is just for little kids and at 18 the girls are close to retire. There's also another thread started on it by nance at: "My take on the New Age Limit..." - http://www.gymchat.com/messageboards/viewtopic.php?t=14155 [quote]- Making the age limit higher will encourage athletes to stay in the sport longer.
