Good for her but please no one take too much inspiration from this without first making sure your upper body is ready lol I worked with a kid whose arm snapped in two doing a back walkover
Oh yeah. I am super impressed by her. I'm about her size and my wrists would snap like twigs if I tried that. And my back would be spasming for weeks after the first attempt.
Yeah listen I'm significantly smaller than y'all and I cannot fathom the idea of bending backwards until my hands are touching the floor! I am in awe of this!!
The wrist thing is real-watched my six year old try something similar on the monkey bars and my own joints ached in sympathy. Hope she warmed up beforehand.
Yes. It looked like she was being careful in her lead up but still yes. I have to be that person but I’m extraordinarily jealous she can pull that off at her weight. And here I am , i am not big, exercise everyday and I feel like that move is so impossible for me. I guess I can work on it like she did and stop whining lol 😂
At any weight. Gymnastics are a seriously dangerous sport. Its nothing you just start with no confidence that you can suport your weight. Any weight. You can break your wrists or mess up a disk with 120lbs just as well.
That happened to me when I was in 2nd grade gymnastics! I told them I couldn't do it and they said I was just scared and to do it anyway, so I did and snapped my arm. Last gymnastics class of my life lol.
