Chellsie Memmel was 2005 World Champion, coached by her father.
She has 2 kids: a son born in August 2014 and a daughter born in November 2017.
After playing around in the Gym during the COVID-19 break, Andy says she’s about 95% physically ready to start on routines. Thinks it would be fun for his grandkids to see mom compete.

Just once I tried to build my own version of a Rings bungee belt. It lasted about 3 weeks before falling apart.
A professional version is available. Safer on the shoulders. Easy to do more repetitions of swings. It works for dismounts. And, of course, less spotting is needed.
Tower Spot System includes TS anchors, TS adult and child harnesses, TS resistance bands (5 for each side, 10 total).
Details $699

Dr. Keith Russell is one of the smartest Gymnastics people I know
A former Canadian Men’s National Coach, personal coach of Olympians Warren Long and James Rozon, Keith is expert in anatomy, physiology, biomechanics and sports injury.
This is the first of a series of FIG Education online seminars organized because all regular FIG camps and clinics have been cancelled due to COVID-19.
One of Keith’s recommendations is to do fewer reps in our yearly training plans by working more strength / power and less muscular endurance. Especially for advanced gymnasts.
I recall Dr. Bill Sands stating a high level gymnasts should be able to complete all their strength / power training in about 30 minutes / day.
I like Keith’s simple graphics that help explain complex issues – knee ligament injuries, for example.

Most of us don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables.
Bananas are one of the most welcome options for children.
In my youth, for example, I had peanut butter and banana sandwiches for lunch most days. It’s still a comfort food for me.
