I think you gained alot of respect after you start showing your routines in practice, not only because your form is improving, because sadly some people think if a gymnast’s form isnt perfect that theyre not working hard enough, when in reality its not true and It doesnt come as easy and natural to some gymnasts.
I agree! Mykayla has always had lovely lines but I can DEFINITELY see massive flexibility improvement. Those oversplits in all her leaps are especially lovely. Looks like the hard work is paying off!
Ive always heard negative comments toward her for years, since I started to follow gymnastics like 4 or 5 years ago. Reading comments on RUclips videos from old meets. But, criticism is one thing however a lot of people who 'criticize' her are sooooooo vitriolic about it. Very nasty, never understood that. Im not someone who 'stans' people or is a fan of anybody in fact, so when I say Ive seen some really nasty stuff said about her I hope that gives my statement validation.
What is hilarious is when she went to her Physical therapy doc and he states how naturally inflexible she is! Like apparently shockingly so to him. Hopefully the people who dislike her gymnastics see that and understand only so much is in her control. Ive always like Mykayla for her power-based gymnastics, when she came out into elite it was only her and Simone who were really, idk the terminology but throwing huge skills at that particular time, like 2014 times?. It was awesome to me. I admire both forms of gymnastics, the power-based athletes and the 'aesthetics?' based athletes too.
Anyway, Im glad I see less vitriol thrown at her because it was always un-called for and people who are that passionate that they would say hateful things towards ANYONE over something that doesn't directly impact them in life needs to re-evaluate their values. lol /rant over
The girls in the gym cheering for Mckayla when she was on bars made my heart happy
it honestly helps me so much!! they are the best
She’s like our big sister at the gym😂
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial I wish u were at my gym. I can tell we would get along well. Not to be weird 😂
It is incredibly to see how much work has to go into preparing for the Olympics. These little girls are so enthralled in watching you practice. It's clear that you inspire them.
I think all of that cheering activated her do-it-for-the-fans-and-team motivation that she learned in NCAA. That's so valuable!
very true!!
@corvina campbell she’s going to the Olympics this year
A lot of people were ragging on Mykayla on Reddit this week. But she's just so solid. Despite her past behaviour, she has really matured into a steady and hardworking young woman. If you watch the sessions on her channel closely, she mentors young gymnasts at her gym, she's always positive, she has a really strong and positive relationship with her coaches and a new marriage where it's obvious both of them deeply love and respect each other. Sure, her form isn't great, but she is doing the best with what God gave her. She's one of the most inflexible people I've ever seen, and it's truly not her fault. She's a gymnast. Of course she stretches and works on flexibility, but no amount of stretching will ever turn you into a ballerina if you're simply not built that way. So, she compensates for the inherent lack of artistry in her routines with difficulty, and excels in that regard. She's also an Olympic alternate, which proves that: yes, she is that good; yes, she is incredibly strong mentally; yes, she is capable of working incredibly hard. I commend her and I'm really rooting for her, in spite of the fact that so many think her gymnastics isn't that pretty. As a person, she continues to learn and grow, and that in itself is beautiful.
I’ve been praying for you MyKayla. Praying your body holds up and you do well. I am a widow, as my husband recently passed away . I hadn’t been able,to sleep much and have watched all of your videos. They have brought me joy during a difficult time. Thank you for sharing your journey
I freaking love Bob so much. He’s so funny and seems to have such good intuition/awareness.
Your dedication is so impressive! I used to do gymnastics and I can only imagine how sore your body must be...It will all be worth it!
you have no idea haha I hurt all the time 😂
Not a gymnast but this inspires me to get in shape and learn some skills/tricks lmao
you got this 💪🏼
Think you mean skills. She's not doing tricks.
@@9melissal they are Gymnastics skills and tricks
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial awe thank you!!
@@9melissal they are skills for her because she’s incredible and puts in so much effort. It would be a trick for me because it’d take magic for me to accomplish any of her skills! Lol
Love how supportive your teammates are
7:04 the girl on beam in the background flew😂
Bob is my favourite coach by far for you! You go Mykayla!
why is Bob your favorite? He's my favorite too!
MyKayla it’s amazing how much your form has improved. All of that hard work has definitely paid off. You are looking incredible.
thank you for noticing!! been working on it
Bob is a good coach he knows how to encourage and push at the same time
I have watched every single video of your journey to the Olympics and although I’m not super knowledgeable about gymnastics I really love the sport as I was a competitive cheerleader for 10 years. But I can honestly say there is no one that I want on that Olympic team more than you! I’m seriously rooting you on. I know it must be devastating to come so close to achieving your dream so I want this so bad for you. Keep fighting mik you can do this! Give it all you’ve got even through the pain because that gold medal around your neck will make it all worth it. So proud of you for working so hard and not giving up or giving in. Keep killing it
thank you so much ❤️ here's to Tokyo!!
I love seeing this process and seeing all the hard work that goes in up to competition. Not only is she extremely talented but she is really tough. Thank you for the content
Great work. Keep it up. 97 days til Tokyo-you will be there! I am praying for you Myk. You got this girl!
❤️
I did gymnastics for roughly 6 years, but lost my motivation due to unfortunate circumstances and personal issues so eventually I "retired" in 2019. About a year later i began to miss all the flips and tricks, so i started taking a recreational tumbling class once a week just for fun, but i didn't have the same "spark" i did back in my competitive days. However, when i started to follow your journey, i recognized that same spark within you and it's been pushing me to work harder, increase my days at the gym, and try new skills. You 100% deserve a spot on that olympic team, but at the end of the day, it's not about the medals or titles. It's about the effort you put in. So regardless of how this all plays out, you're already a champion:)
Thank god for myk giving us our only taste of elite gymnastics in weeks 😭
Are you following Chellsie Memmel's comeback? She posts every Sunday.
@@crystalmanteuffel8858 Chellsie doesn’t post full routines, few gymnastics do on there instagram or any social media. This is one of the few full routines we get to see out of competition.
I got u
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial period😝
@@gymcentric5727 Chellsie posted her beam routine this past Sunday. She also is doing DTY vaults again too. Her ankle injury set her back a bit, but she's working towards routines now.
Man I don’t know why but I felt emotional watching this 🥲 your hard work and tenacity is starting to pay off Myk. Your form on your first full bar routine is so much improved, can’t wait to see it with more practice! Just can’t wait to see you compete!! Much love ❤️
finally all coming together ❤️
I am simply astonished by the amount of work you put in, MyKayla, and the (physical) pain you endure - and gymnastics isn’t even a contact sport! If I came off the bars and hit the mat like that, I won’t be getting up. Ever...
Keep it up, and take care of yourself!
Never been here this early. I can't wait to see what she does in the next couple months. I honestly think she has a chance for a team spot. She has improved so much and she has a flair about her. Maybe I'm biased as a long time fan, but I think she can pull it off. Too bad we can't have 6 or 7 member teams like the older games.
dam you are a certified badass those drops even onto pads looked brutal and you walked it off like its nothing and all that impact on your feet/knees/hips its incredible you can walk after this. true legend
You have improved so much! So glad to see your foot/ankle is doing so much better!
As a side note....how adorable is your coach! OMG!
Even with all the pain you’re in you keep pushing through, AND make it look easy! You are an inspiration! Best of luck to you in the Olympic trials Mykayla! 🥇 ❤️
I love ur coach! He is so loving and definitely knows whats best for u! Wish u luck at trials! 😄
I just love the support and cheering from the other gymnasts! I think it's so cool and it always motivated me🙌🙌
omg mykayla you look beautiful without makeup aswell!
awe thank you haha
you have such a good attitude even when you fall! like right after you fall, you spring up with a smile on your face, and I love it!
that's all you can do sometimes haha
all your hard work has really paid off!!! i'm really hoping you qualify for the olympics!! good luck!
Imagine going to your gym and seeing MyKalya Skinner like I would squeal in joy
You look so good! I’m not a gymnast but I can’t wait to see you perform everything! ♥️🔥
She has worked so hard and improved so much hope she makes it!!
Yesss Myk!! As someone from Canada 🇨🇦 I know more about American gymnasts I don’t think I know one Olympic/elite high level gymnast😂. Your a big inspiration for me and I want to thank u for keeping me going and motivated to do this sport I love. I can’t wait to see u at the Olympics. ( I know you will make it). It helps remind me how much work I have to put into it to get to where u are. I know this message is long but I’m trying to finish it up. I’m trying to get into HP right now it’s like a program where you leave school early they have it at my gym but I haven’t been invited YET. I’m rooting for you Olympics watch out 2021 because Mykayla’s getting gold. Love you 💕.
Great job Myk!! You're an inspiration to your gym and this country. We know it hurts and youre tired. Mad respect for that. We are rooting for you as you fight to keep going and go for gold!!
MyKayla, you are incredibly inspiring. Watching the pain & discomfort you have been experiencing recently isn't fun I feel for you, I hope things are improving and one of your therapies is helping more. Thank you for sharing the reality of gymnastics behind the scenes.
I wanted to share the whole journey and not just the good stuff! It's been so nice to have everyone be so supportive and encouraging
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial I agree, it’s important & hugely educational/eye opening for everyone to see just what goes into your polished performances. I literally gasp when you fall. Your body goes through so much. I have MS & working through pain is a mental challenge too. You’re incredible. 🤩 Definitely a new fan cheering you on & gymnastics convert :)
Congratulations on your first full bar routine!! Your endurance is there, now it's just putting in the numbers. I'm so very happy for you. Can't wait to see your new floor routine!
You work so hard!!it almost makes me feel ashamed for not getting up and trying harder each day!RESPECT TO YOU SWEET GIRL
She is such a good gymnast
I sure try!
Amazing, relentless effort Mykayla!! Thanks for taking us along on your journey, and thanks to Jonas too 🤸🏼♀️
I so teared up when she landed that routine!! You got this grl!
Watching you work up to this point has been so cool to watch! Well done girl - you are a true badass athlete!!! Rooting for that trip to Tokyo!
I love that your beam routine includes turns no one really does them anymore and they're so fun to watch
I Love how caring are the girls in the gym. Its heart warming to hear them cheering M
Come on M, you got it!!!
Its excellent to watch your progression. Battling the physical rigors as well as mental ones. Thanks for the videos for your fans to appreciate you even more. Stay strong!
I’m so excited for trials! Good luck Mykayla, I’m rooting for you!
I admire how hard you work, and I am really rooting for you to make the Olympic team! Keep going Myk!❤️
I'm not a gymnast but I am so impressed with your form and fluidity now. It is so beautiful! Keep working like you are and there is no reason you won't make the team! Good luck! Sending you good vibes!
Looking so great MyKayla! You got this! 💪 Seriously flying on bars which is amazing to see! Looking good on all events and beautiful spin/illusion combo on beam! 💃
I'm not a gymnast and no nothing about gymnastics, but I've been watching your videos and it's looking so good you've improved so much
I love these videos...its so amazing to see all the work it really takes to be a great athlete. Keep up the great work! I miss being in the gym.....
I love watching your videos. Thanks so much for sharing all of your hard work!
Man did this bring back some memories of hobbling around in between tumbling passes and routines ugh! Used to train under Armine when she first came to the states and her nickname for me was grandma cuz of that 😂 From one grandma to another....you're lookin great girl, keep it up! ❤💪
I'm absolutely loving your videos. Thank you for sharing the process with us. It is really making me love this sport even more.
MyKayla, you are working so hard! Love watching your videos. I loved all positivity from the other girls in the gym in this video! Rooting for you at trials! :) you got this!
Ahhhhh!!!!! I am SOOOO pumped for you!!!!!! Come on MyK!!!!!!!!!!
Gymnastics is the best sport you can’t change my mind 💪🏼 most of my best memories happened in the gym❤️
Can't wait to see you at the Olympics kicking butt and taking names!! Show everyone how unstoppable you are like you show us in your videos!!
I feel like the music gets you pumped up when you're doing your gymnastics BTW when the girls were cheering you on I was cheering and yelling too!... 😁😝
Her routine is so good, and her form has come so far. She has so much potential.
YESSSSS GIRLLLLLL I was cheering from my bed like I do when it’s a real comp! Go Mack!!!
Always look forward to watching your videos! You are killing it girl! Improving so much! Love your attitude as well!
💕🥰😻😊 road to Tokyo!!!
I miss being a gymnast, but scoliosis surgery had to be done, and with that the end of my gymnastics career.
New sub here and former gymnast from 🇨🇦. I’m such a fan. Your strength and determination to push through the pain, covid etc is an inspiration. I really enjoy your vids (and the editing is brilliant, husband) and thank you for sharing. This old gal appreciates it and really misses it. 🥰
Your coach is so inspiring and motivating
Lovely to have your team mates to cheer you on keep doing the good work 👍 👏
Actual tears watching you pull off a full bars routine this practice. It’s coming together babe, and we’re rooting for you every step. #MykStrong 💪🏻
This made me have so much more respect and admiration for gymnastics. You guys make the skills look so effortless and beautiful during competition but your channel shows the countless hours and hard work that goes into a routine.
I'm so grateful for you and Jonah (lol jk :P) taking the time to share these videos with us!
Oof watching you with the achilles tape makes me feel for you so much. I pole vaulted in college with achilles issues and it's no fun. Props to you for being able to push through it and still look so strong!
YOU ARE SUCH A QUEEN.
YESsss!! Keep after it-you’ve got this!! xo
Your progress has been amazing!!! I has been fun watching your journey. Great job Champ!!!
I'm rooting for you!! Such a hard worker. You deserve to go to the Olympics and win gold!
Your form looks so much better and your handstands too. Right now I'm calculating ~ 1.8 in deductions for leg separations, short handstands, and flexed feet. I think some of those are inevitable but if you just clean up your toe on 1/1 before the dismount and stick it, that's 0.6 in deductions right there gone. I've been watching your beam progress and your leaps look much better! I think you'll have a very solid all around score at the trials. Don't forget what your strengths are - vault and floor. Capitalize on those! Especially dance elements in your floor routine where deductions come from. Know that your followers are rooting for you!!! Go Mykayla!
All the cheering from the girls 🥲🥲🥲 so awesome
Great job MyKayla! Way to push through even when you're exhausted! I'm so proud of you. Cannot wait to see you competing in Tokyo!!!!
Looking awsome, Mykayla! I'm rooting for you!
You got this girl,rooting for you🤍
MyKayla, you're awesome!
I am so obsessed with the intro to all of your videos cause you are Wonder Woman, Mykala 🤩❤️ ILY
🥰
Woooo that connection into a full was so nice 🌟
OMG MYKAYLA! You’re phenomenal.....you’ve seriously got this. Awesome, BLOSSOM!🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
Congrats on the full routine!!! Love the 80’s music in the background 👌🏻
I just love your bar routine, so dramatic! I just wish I could lend you an ankle (I have one that doesn't hurt at least...); take care of your self and we'll all be keeping our fingers crossed for you!
haha I would love a spare ankle 😂
Yaaaaaas you go girl!! You’ve improved so much ❤️ you got this Ik you’ll make it to the Olympics 👏❤️
I love your videos so much! I've learned so much from you and I just recently got my cast handstand! ❤️ Keep up the good work! ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Great job! You've come really far and I hope you make the team!
I hope so toooo!
I miss gymnastics so much.. enjoy it.. !! Blessings 🙏
Wow your routine looked great! I’m sure there were a few little things but considering that was your first full routine, great job girl!
Hiiii MyKayla! I am your biggest fan! Your such an amazing gymnast and role model for me and my gymnastics! Your my idol and YOUR SOO GOOD!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nice!! I love your beam dismount! Rooting for you! Take care!
YOU GOT THIS KAY!!!! KEEP PUSHING!!!
Great job myk!!💓your doing great good luck for the rest of the way miss you!!!
Pure MOTIVATION
Incredible fight out there today! Love Bob. Include him in more vids. Even an interview would be cool. I enjoy his directness and sense of humor.
He's the bomb! also we did an interview video a few months ago!
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial yes I saw that. I meant more. Can’t get enough of Bob!
A question for Bob- whose his fav women's bar workers? does he like the long lean pirouettes or the dynamic release moves?
@@jennjones256 Well, of course my favorite bar worker is Mykayla Skinner :-), but I loved Amy Chow's routine for the unique and difficult skills and combinations. I, like everyone, marveled at Nastia's artistry and body lines. I also loved Beth Tweddle's release-release-release type of routine. We kind of try to pattern Mykayla's bars after that style.
@@coachbobpeterson wow! very cool to hear directly from you Bob! Wonderful job you are doing with McKayla! Thanks again for responding.
I can’t get over her intro it’s so freaking amazing
Awesome work! I'm totally rooting for you !
You look SO amazing. Can't wait to watch you in Tokyo. Thanks for being so inspirational!
Having followed you from the beginning of your channel.. makes it feel so personal watching you really succeed. I’m so happy to see you this close to your goal.. I teared up when you nailed your bar set! After a friggen year of working in the public, and despite being as careful as humanly possible... I caught the ‘vid and am losing my mind stuck in my home alone! Your videos help, even if it is just 20 minutes out of the day.
Go, Myk!
I'll try and post more for you!! get well soon, I know its no fun
I hope you get better very soon, and with no complications.
Thanks, guys! Luckily.. I was only mildly affected. Really only 2 days of fever and feeling bad.. so I just let myself sleep through it. Being out of work with no pay was the hard part, but I’m back now! Oh.. and the fact that I kept searching the house because I swore I smelled burning wood and thought something was on fire .. but it turns out that the campfire smell is just a side effect and it’s finally starting to fade and isn’t so prominent. So weird!
Oh I feel for you so much watching you walk in pain! I walk like that when I get out of bed in the morning and all I’ve done is sleep lol 😂 wtf 😳
Congrats on the full bar routine! You’re doing awesome 🤩
Can’t wait to cheer you on at trials!
I watch Mykayla Skinner video a lot and it really pushes me to be a better gymnastic.
