@@dorothysmith7226 She got shut down a few years later, and neither of her daughters speak to her (they got the worst of the abuse, by far). She's now a professional Karen, who sues people for a living. People like that are so miserable.

​@@JennyJeong425 and then everybody clapped

My coach smacked you on your hands( knuckles ) with a ruler if you let go of the parallel bars. . Brutal. My hands were blue on top and no skin on inside of my hands ( no leather grips ) Quit after 13 years. The uneven parallel bars **

​@@dorothysmith7226 it's kind of, unfortunately, the normal. I have a similar experience at the same age and younger.

You are so right it makes me so I’d like to get some by by the throat just say one rude about it I don’t care she weigh 300 pounds she accomplish more and her short time on the floor and most people do in a lifetime and shot LOL by the way lineup a chance a People other one just got a turn on your record your find out she had 10 or more show me some by even come close to the app and deserved it without or with judges ha ha lady not going to sort it she would get a tan every time she hit the floor if I was judging that’s how good she was I was said during March and dropped down my God how can she do that she was spring at you like a leper chat and come back screaming about her. More like she owns that sucker you know what she did on that poor and I’m so I’m with you on your comments they should shut your mouth when you come to this beautiful woman there’s no one compares with her and there’s some good ones. There are some good ones but she is the best I’ll put a crown on her head and say that’s all there’s no more competition it’s Ramen. I pray she becomes a coach or something because she loves what you did that’s enough I gotta go take care.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉

She's Beautiful in Every Way.. Her skills are top notch above Everyone. ❤

She's a gorgeous young lady. What the hell is wrong with these people?

I'm stunned. As a father, I can't imagine having other adults treating my daughter that way. If she were my child, I would have beseeched her to find another outlet for her considerable talents.

U gotta look the part

@@scottfinnie.copisamajordf.5758 tf does that mean

YES! I agree. Muscle weighs more than fat right? Muscle also burns fat. I’ve not ever seen an overweight gymnast. Ever. Kaitlyn was gorgeous in college and probably still is!

She was also becoming a young lady. Some of the girls have genetics that are more curvy than others. It's always the tomboy body type coaches that attack the most viciously it seems.

She was taking a break and gained normal weight from not working out as much. It is her body but that is additional weight that she now has to move with. She proved that it didn’t affect her in performance, but I can see how it could be a concern so focused in a sport that relies so heavily on not just skill but size as well

Yes but she and I are built the same, she naturally has wider hips, thus any muscle she adds on is going to make her look as they used to say "bottom heavy" I weigh 115 lbs, but because where I am proportioned, I look like I need to tone up the lower half, damn genetics.🙄😬

@@cannsmith that’s not the point though. The point is that everyone was calling her fat and making her seem like she wasn’t good enough when she was skinny. You don’t know if she was working out or not and frankly that’s not even the topic at hand

Look, this is a physical sport where form meets function both technically and esthetically. The pro standards reject ballerinas for being too tall and models being too short etc….Hopefully she can overcome this issue and come to terms. Let’s face it, it’s great being a private person because you are doing thing to fulfill your own destiny and not constantly seeking others’ approval which is what professional fame is all about.

​@@avayu2289 only Catwalk models have had to be a certain type/height and even that is changing slowly. Generally speaking models overall are sought of any age/gender/shape otherwise.

agree that form meets function in elite level sport, but the rules for form are being rewritten in gymnastics, as well as all other female competitive sports. Once upon a time, tennis players looked like Martina Navratilova. And then along came the very muscular Serena Williams. Misty Copeland has an atypical bust size for ballet. Nina Derwael is unusually tall for a gymnast. I believe that coaches and peers need to curtail their archaic ways of thinking because she defeated Simone Biles looking this way. It obviously didn't affect her performance.

@@avayu2289 If you're telling a young evolving girl to essentially starve herself you're putting her at serious risk of complications and even death. I agree form is important but there's a difference between being fat and growing due to hormones and puberty. Your hips get wider and your chest gets bigger. It's science. No amount of starving yourself is going to change your body's natural process. And add muscle to that and it makes them look big but they are healthy and fit. The expectation to be dainty and slim is just not possible.

I'm glad she brought this up & yeah she just became a woman's body //no longer a child // but in no way did she become fat // those coaches need to have real consequences for their actions -- so awful but thank goodness not all of them behave like this

It depends on that individual as well though..

​

@@stardust1621 ok cool let's pick out every single little nuance right?

@@sandraswan9008 🚶..Calm down Sandra and Happy New Year. 😌

The last time I seen her on a balance beam she couldn't dismount without rolling her cankle and falling on her face. Almost as if she gained so much weight her body couldn't support her weight while doing her routine. Funny how that works.

Watch her a hundred times!! She is so full of life and joy I am so angry she was made to feel less than. There are real monsters out there posing as humans.

Can’t thumbs up this comment enough ❤

Yes, yes, yes. Her talent is amazing.

C'est tellent parfait avec Katleen, qu'ancien prof de sport, m'a dit: c'est truqué ! Et imposdible de la faire changer d'idée ! Incroyable gymnaste !

How odd that it would be at UCLA the home of coach Wooden and the best college sports program of all time

How could anyone be mad at that

😂

Personal challenges? Nah, she had rotten coaches. They need to be exposed by name.

#FACTS 😂

that's what I'm wondering too can you flip and do balance shit when you are overweight? some coaches like are like gonna roast you... is it bad depends... but do you think the best athletes in world weren't roasted by their own coaches. fuck your coach is your worst enemy in terms of roasting... but do they want you to lose. nah... if someoen else tells you shit they'll be the first in line to beat the fuck out of that guy.

@@criscris428 difference is that she’s not overweight, there’s an atmosphere in certain female sports that you won’t be able to “compete” if you aren’t matching the “perfect/model frame” which is ridiculous. I’ve played plenty of team sports where some of the most athletic dudes were 230+ lbs in like middle school/highschool which could be considered “overweight”. NFL O and D Linemen are the easiest examples of large but still athletic bodies.

@@jacobsaucier5346 o line and d line men aren't gymnasts.. yes your body has to be a certain way for different sports.. there are exceptions but they aren't the rules

@@maverick33guy95 well the original thing I replied too called her overweight, my example of NFL is that technically “overweight” people playing pro sports are still more athletic than 90% of the average population.

She wouldn't be able to perform in the capacity she does without the physique she has tbh

even if she was this would be horrible, honestly even worse. the reassurance is unnecessary. talented powerhouse and fat aren't incompatible terms.

And her cool swinging groove.

​@@colorbar.seh for certain sports they are. Some sports like the one where they swing in a circle and chuck stuff they tend to carry excess fat but other sports the fat can hinder their ability. It's sport specific

Not eating diminishes that strength

People got so used to this one specific gymnast body type for women that anything else is seen as disgustingly big, even though she is at her physical prime and an incredible athlete. I'm so sick of female athletes being treated like eye candy that needs to grin all the time and be tiny

That's heartbreaking 💔

​@M P who cares about their weight and why???? Their bodies change because they train so hard, of course they won't have girly figures. And their body mass is mostly muscle. The public should stay quiet

​@M P who cares about their weight and why???? Their bodies change because they train so hard, of course they won't have girly figures. And their body mass is mostly muscle. The public should stay quiet

Who cares about her weight her size just look at what she can do then size and weight be damned

Plus que parfait, if you know what I mean.

Let’s all relax

Carrément

I always wondered why she wasn't in any of the Olympics but now I see why. This is really sad to see happen to such a gifted athlete 😢

She’s full of shit sorry. Every comment I ever saw was talking about how beautiful she was and how proud of her people were.

Skinny, thin, "normal", chubby, big. All are "real" Mf op edited their comment grrrr

Don't be unrealistic with your comment, she isn't "the most beautiful ever 🙄" but she is beautiful 👍

​@@kayesdigginit1519 opinions are opinions, respect that

@@kayesdigginit1519 Beauty is subjective! So yes, she might be the most beautiful person ever to op.

Exactly, she has an hourglass body, thick thighs and has boobs, she's like an 10 among of a lot of 6 who thinks that they need to be underweight, but unfortunately she couldn't be able to see how pretty she is

Yesss this I think is so icky how the thing we loved becomes a job a gross job in ballet we had to do that too it was the worst part of the day for us

You'd think it was an eating disorder clinic by weighing weekly.

I don't think elite level athletes get the luxury of treating themselves. That's what steps them above the rest. One of my besties was a racecar driver and he survived on tomatoes and cabbage so he could be as light as possible. That's what it took to break the track record.

@@jessequist7450 ok I think gymnastics is a bit different in that regard. You don’t really have to be ‘light as a feather’ because weight can actually give you an advantage on the bars, vault and floor where you can use the vibration of the equipment to your advantage.

Well that’s your parents fault. Unless you or whoever wants to be a winner and have no issue with training to become a champion you know as a gymnast what it takes to win. If you just want to have fun there are teams and places you can go for that atmosphere. The problem I see is the parents that want to live their lives through their kids and pushing them while never asking them if this is what they want. Parents are the reason it’s getting almost impossible to get umpires and referees for kids sports. They’re fed up with being demeaned and threatened because of calls they make. It’s not worth it.

This applies to work life as well. I've had crappy bosses and I finally have a really good one who makes me feel like a human being. It's amazing how that can affect your motivation and mental health.

A good coach will also tell you if you are overweight

Only after the coach realised she was part of the problem , fixed her own attitude , and embraced this young lady

​​@@mattwoods8872 Wait, the coach you're referring to isn't the same. The previous coaches were sued for drug abuse and Ohashi's parents were witness to their crimes. They testified in front of a Florida court and the 3 coaches were found guilty, and were sent to a max security facility there because the judge flexed his constitutional authority over 3 Ukrainian meth heads. PS I love Ukraine and its independence from Russia, but this is a topic for another time. Please don't insert politics into this. The 3 coaches were also abusive to Olesya Rulin before she quit gymnastics and went on to become an actress and violinist in NYO

amen!!

Right, I was like big where??? She looks so powerful and just beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

And shen she became a woman, she found out about all the ways in which she's not good enough, that's our right of passage😬

I would say she was thicc, and real men like a thicc girl. If I had a girlfriend with her body, my dreams would've came true.

She has bigger muscles, that's what makes it possible to make those incredible gymnastics.

Or you could just thank the coaches... ya know, instead of whatever nonsensical made up invisible magic sky fairy your parents happened to be duped into believing before passing those same delusional beliefs down to you. *facepalm*

@@Big74Mike2012 your opinion. Doesn’t make it right

Are there coaches like that ? I always hear they are sa a lot of these girls .

Thank the coaches for calling her fat, an Elephant, look like you swallowed a pig? That's caring? The girl is/was incredible. Don't judges judge on ability application etc. Not on the look, then they is other issues of appropriation. Anyone been inapropriate is the camera engineer and editer. Not the gymnast.

Ikr you can do it home for free.

@@Mordorer ha ha

So why would a coach discourage a physique that improved her performance? I think a grain of salt is due here

@@johnk6598 are you fucking kidding

@@johnk6598 the extra mass of muscles can mean needing a longer run up etc to be able to get enough momentum to do the tricks. But the regulation floor space for competition doesn't give lots of room for that so it's a balance. But at the end of the day it's dumb. It's never okay to talk to anyone about their body like that. Especially not to young girls.

​@@johnk6598 her previous coaches did what they learned and what they were taught. Ms Val, the coach that turned her career around, realized after a really awful season that it wasn't working and did something new. Positive reinforcement, having fun, bringing joy. It showed so much in the results that the routine went viral even among people who don't follow gymnastics.

Just like with ballet and figure skating. You need to be slim, but coaches get so fixated on this "perfect body image" for those athletes that they don't even care how these girls will develop ostheoporosis, stop their peridos etc. But as long as they are pretty and able to do tricks that are hard just for the sake of being hard to do, it stops being an art form

No entiendo el inglés

I love watching your skits so graceful and full of joy

it doesn't matter what her body looked like, what she was told is horrific either way.

I always appreciated Shawn Johnson’s coach, Chow. He let her have a pretty normal childhood. She did ball games and dances as well as training. I think he balanced her very good. Marta and USAG pushed way too hard. I’m glad Simone took her mental health by hand to help herself. I’ve always wondered why USAG promoted such a toxic environment. I will be shocked if Simone comes back. I hope she enjoys life and finds other passions along the way!

You know, it really depends on the person. A lot of people respond to positive approaches, but there are some who need that push from the negative. It also depends heavily on the coach and the trust between the two.

So true and important! Not only in sports. Thank you.

​@Boogie Nights Mark Wahlberg yeah, it seems like some need to realize what lines not to cross as well! like what the hell does her weight and appearance have to do with it if her performance is great?

​@@hanamachii_ Sadly literal bullying from coaches is super common. Do y'all know what skating world looks like? EDs and girls who are physically too destroyed to skate in their 20s.

The whole point is that it shouldn't be about her looks. Ugly people can be athletes too, you know. But it's only women who are berated for not looking perfect regardless of how brilliant they are at doing what they do
