Why are gymnast teachers so mean

@@Kamila-eb9pzexactly like they should push the person into a split more but not until they have sharp pain.. they should only push them to stretching pain they don’t understand that forcing it with bad pain can tear muscles, ligaments, tendons, etc..

@@maratmankov179I do gymnastics and they don’t do that..

@@Aetheticcocoa well it’s different for evetuone

@@Kamila-eb9pz The teachers are not mean, they are just strict. If you had a European gymnastics coach, I bet you would be crying ATLEAST 1 minute through. I had to do 5 minutes every day, with high blocks.

Howwww

She is not keeping her knee on the chair that’s why.

@Anna mcnulty fan yesss

How long did it take you of stretching to get your oversplit like that

​@@monasfroggie7808 If you're trying to estimate for yourself, its all about genetics and what not.

@@meteor3521ehh all of those girls were just put into it very young

@@monasfroggie7808I’m not sure about long term effects but I’m sure an over split can be trained or developed

Yes

No…

well... that was a dumb response.@@Hola-me

@@flexygirevik sorry if that sounded mean but I also do rg and when I was in level 5 their was a girl whose split was like 1mm from the ground, she wasn't very good at rg, she was in Xcel. everyone in Xcel knew how to do a split and could do, and did, this same exact overspilt routine. incase ur wondering Xcel and level 5 warm up together. Anyway, back to the point, none of the coaches let her do this till she could, do about a 1 inch overspilt on each leg and be able to touch, (this applied for everyone). she ended up quiting and sadly I never saw her do a split. anyways I am just trying to say no, maybe you shouldn't do this until you get a tiny overspilt and touch, that is just what proffesional coaches said to the girl, also as I said not trying to be rude but also not trying to start an argument...(:

@@Hola-me Thank you for the informative response! I have gotten my splits since writing that first comment, and I just recently reached a little over-split touch town a few weeks ago. I can’t imagine taking it this far! Haha.

As a rythmic gymnast, yes it does hurt for like a week after but your are supposed to stretch consistently so if you stretch one day and the next day you can barely walk, you still have to stretch, if it is very bad start with really simple stretching and than move on to the hard stuff your were doing yesterday. After a while of stretching even when sore, it stops being as sore

Not really when you do this consistenly and from easy to hard. You become more flixible over time

@@gohararamyan3303 Oh ok that makes sense thank youu

@@Justteenager Okay thank youu

@@kaitlin3498 no problem !

How I do it for 3 minutes but not between two chairs but with one where my front leg is on it I don‘t cry but think I‘m going to die from the pain so how can you do it for 10 minutes without crying

@@Little_Cooki i am doing with 2 chairs and not crying and our last 1 minute is hands up

Wow respect but how do you manage not to cry ? @@Soyasdiarys

@@Soyasdiarys I do training with a Russian coach, and she will make us do over splits 10 minutes on 1 and a half foot blocks. She makes us lift our hands on 5 minutes. The other coaches make us do 5, and 1 minute arms up. I’m currently level 5 in the USA team, and yea

Sometimes, not during 2mins tho, during 10yes

@@tatianacocsanova04 you remain in oversplits for 10 minutes?

That‘s not true I do it too and I‘m fine
