Nastia on bars in training

Marcus pointed to a video from podium training shot by Gymdish:

Not quite a full routine — but the “cleanest” I’ve ever seen her swing.

the most interesting routine composition ever in history

superb variety of skills (vs He Kexin doing 3 Jaegers)

amazing flexibility

HUGE Geinger (the best of all time?)

better Pak than He Kexin

OK, the dismount is still very deductible. Perhaps she should go back to double layout.

With Valeri as coach, she could add even more difficulty before Beijing. I expect he’s already got a plan on how to beat the Chinese in their own house. A great champion himself, Valeri thrives on this kind of challenge.
