We found this book to be very educational. It's a great resource for inspiring gymnast giving them a realistic view of the sport. It's also a reality check for the parent. A fantastic guide and a must have book for those who are serious about the sport!

This is a wonderful book for beginning gymnasts and their parents to understand more and gain the best from gymnastics. It's a helpful guide that will serve as a companion during your gymnastics journey. "Gymnastics" features a lot of burning answers to your questions, from what to pack in your gym bag to preparing for competition. It has an easy-to-read format that's interesting and imformative without trying to shove material down your throat.

"Gymnastics" gives you stories about famous gymnasts when they first started off, conditioning and stretching excercises to do at home, drills and excercises for landing safely, competition advice and information, information about gymnastics-related injuries, information about deciding your future in gymnastics, and much more. It is a very valuable resource that all gymnasts can benefit from. My only complaint is that it is a little bit outdated and it would be nice if a new edition was published. Otherwise, it's a fantastic book!

This book was a great guide for me. From it I learned basic moves, saftey skills, costs for differant programs, and it showed how to write a sample resume for my futur in gymnastics!

Very good book to read for parents and gymnasts. It covers basics of gymnastics and mental gymnastics training as well. It's written in the way you don't get bored by reading it. I think author has a good understanding of gymnastics and wants the reader to understand involvement in the sport of gymnastics.

This book has a lot of useful information for the beginning parent who wants to learn more about the sport. It covered a variety of aspects, from finding the right gymnastics club to the mental and physical preparation of a competing gymnast.

I think that very gymnast needs this book because it helps you w/ what to pack in your gym bag to how to aid hurt parts of your body to the cost of grips& etc.
