There's no pay scale! The few who make the Olympics & do well may be compensated. They pay with their lives & their bodies. When they quit it's like " Who AM I"? Their entire identity is tied up in the sport. If they escape without a broken body, it catches up fast. It's the most brutal sport (aside from boxing & MMA) but they start as small children & are finished by their early 20's, if that, with few exceptions. With the age going up, it makes it more brutal, as gymnasts usually peak around 13 or 14 & puberty can & HAS destroyed the best. Carly Patterson, the 1st gymnast to win Gold AA (USA) in a real Olympics, not boycotted by the best team, her birthday fell just right, she competed, won, quit & had back surgery. Nastia Luikin missed the birthday cut off date by a few months & had to wait FOUR years for her chance, in which she battled a fractured foot & numerous injuries. Then the identity crisis afterward. They also give up a normal childhood. Peace&love❤
Miss Moxie good point. I jus can't see how not one gymnast personality would change after being in a room with that troll....they turned a blind eye. Disgusting
I can see how it's possible. Martha k. was the king pin and everyone was scared of her and USA gymnastics. From interviews it was apparent that getting out of line/ rocking the boat was not tolerated. But remember, he also raped hundreds of collegiate athletes. No one said anything. I always find it so strange a man can rape hundreds of girls/women.. and no one says anything. Maybe 4 or 5..okay...But hundreds? It's the same with Bill Cosby..and Weinstein....rape hundreds of women for years and no one spoke up.
zanaquilo Gonzalez he was reported on SEVERAL occasions but nobody listened to the gymnasts He had a title 9 strike in 1997 but the Title 9 office of MSU dismissed it. (The Title 9 Officer was his friend
zanaquilo Gonzalez if that were my daughter I’d be the same way. It’s sickening to find out how many people knew about what he was doing and didn’t take the girls seriously. As far as hard time, there are a number of people who belong in prison with him. The Dean and the head gymnastics coach at MSU both of whom knew what he was doing and intimidated the victims into silence. The Title 9 Officer who omitted in the report that the accuser pushed Nassar off of her and he had an erection, and just dismissed it as ‘medical treatment. To say the least
I was forced to quit by my coaches at 13 and hav had a lifetime of chronic back pain and I was no one near the level of these girls. Don't wish it upon anyone!
This is awesome. I love seeing the real training that they do. I’m in so much awe of these girls for their gymnastics especially the beam wow amazing what courage. Wish I could come and try and train with them. I’m a yogi who recovered from a tilted pelvis and bad twisting muscles through daily yoga and love it. I practice everyday and am getting into some more advanced balances now. I’m still dealing with sore left hip but it’s trying to adjust and release. I have to say it’s girls like these that inspired to want to have a strong and flexible body. Thanks for the video it motivates me 😃❤️🔥🤸🏽♀️😅
Maroney was saying how USA gymnasts are trained to their deaths. Every day working their butts off, not giving their bodies a chance to relax, to heal. Gymnastics is a sport that is so taxing on your body that if you don't give your body time to rest, it will give out and you could get seriously injured. These gymnasts were taught that resting was being lazy and not working when in reality resting is vital to succeeding in the sport. This constant training is going to kill (literally or figuratively) these gymnasts if they don't give their bodies a break.
Sameer ~ VERY true! The bar has been set _astronomically_ high ...but if these champions never got here we wouldn't know how much perfection humanity is capable of! l;m starting to get a little tired of hearing people complain about the Karolis! l know where they came from, and their AMAZING contributions to the sport!
@David Weaver Thank you, David, for mentioning Melanie’s passing, which I didn’t know about. I went straight to her news accounts. Poor young thing (and an academic stand-out as well!). What a terrific nurse she would have become.
I actually started one with new Divide but I couldnt figure out how to make it work with the beat lol. Maybe I will try again that was 2 years ago I think.
@@TheNonMakeupGuru yet there are a lot of injustices in the world, corruption is rampant, Donald Trump is US president, etcetera. So, what's your point? The world is turned upside down.
I have 2 big editing mistakes in this and for some reason I dont see it in my editing software... only in the finished version. Sorry about that.
thought provoking and inspiring
I'm 2 years late on this video, but awesome edit!!! I love gymnastics!!!
„Instread of train them to death just protect them from dying"
It's just so true💔
McKayla’s vault is sheer perfection.
2:01 that combo on a beam would be epic if landed 100% in the Olympics! My mouth would be like :O
wow, your editing is incredible!
thank you!!
YOU CAPTURED EXACTLY WHAT THE SPORT HAS BECOME!! amazin editing !!!
For the talent and skills required, I always felt they should be on a much higher pay scale!

I have a very hard time imagining that Marta Karolyi can have the kind of control she claims to yet have NO CLUE was Nassar was up to

Gymnastic is one of the most hardworking sport
I trained at a Olympic Training Center & we weren't allowed to sit down in a 4-6 hr workout, unless a foot was being taped.
These women in this sport have got to be the best athletes worldwide
Awesome. Simone was born to be a gymnast! This is jaw droppinly well done.
So much RESPECT for all these ladies...so inspiring.
This editing is amazing! Thought it was a trailer for movie
I was forced to quit by my coaches at 13 and hav had a lifetime of chronic back pain and I was no one near the level of these girls. Don't wish it upon anyone!
I've had 5 ankle surgeries, 1 knee and they're discussing a hip replacement. I'm almost 50.
Cuz gymnastics sux!!
Gymnasts are amazing!

What an amazing job you did. Thank you 😍🙌🏼
McKayla has the prettiest vault to ever exist in all of humanity.
Bellissimo, many compliments! I love gymnastic ❣️
Can't relate. If I have a headache I come late to work and skip gymn.
I don’t understand why the title is about USA gymnastics but Angelina Melnikova is in the thumbnail.
Because I liked the picture
@@SuperGymmie doesn’t that defeat the title of “USA Gymnasts” 🤦🏻♂️
Great editing
I really hope that in the end one of the gymnast say '.... And it's worth it because this is what I want.'
Who’s on beam at 2:03
Who is doing the 2 loso's to the back full?
Maile O'keefe
That was amazing. The pass of the future!
I have no idea what this was about, but I couldn't look away!

McKayla Marooney. Pure perfection. Just love her.
But 2:01 Damnnnnnnnnn that Acro series was out of this world 😳😳😳😳😳
Amazing
She looks so beautiful now !
WoW This is Beautiful! Slow Motion Looks So Smooth! I Have No Words! How Long This Took To Make??
thanks it took about 3 hours
SuperGymmie NP and Ty For Anwser
*I always tell her.*
France edit please ❤️
This makes gymnastics seem super creepy
VERY LABORIOUS PRACTICES FULL GAME, EXTRAORDINARY PEOPLE DO THIS, NO DOUBT ALL PLAYERS IS HARD WORKERS..... BUT LABORS RESULTS SWEET.......

WHERE is the gym footage from!!! It’s amazing. And your editing is incredible.
The title of this video is all the more poignant after the recent death of Southern Connecticut State University gymnast Melanie Coleman.
@David Weaver Thank you, David, for mentioning Melanie’s passing, which I didn’t know about. I went straight to her news accounts. Poor young thing (and an academic stand-out as well!). What a terrific nurse she would have become.
Wait! How did she die?
@Chris Napoli A fall off the uneven bars, unfortunately.
LeslieGMN Tragic! These young girls train so hard and risk so much. Thank you for letting me know.
MY BABIES!! MY QUEENS!!! 🙌🙌♥️♥️♥️💪💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Pause at 1:11 look at Kyla face
That's not kyla. She is blond
Could you do an edit with the song New Divide from Linkin Park? That would be so cool ❤️
I actually started one with new Divide but I couldnt figure out how to make it work with the beat lol. Maybe I will try again that was 2 years ago I think.
Классно
McKayla's the most beautiful woman ever
Nothing is normal about this
Who is this 2:01 that's insane
Maile Okeefe
Weird tickin' music. Makes crazy.
The music is generally much too loud.
Stupidity is always present when there is money involved. We need rulesmprotecting athletes.
Who all was featured in this? Talking wise
Mckayla Maroney, Aly Raisman and Marta.
Thanks
I love how on the thumbnail there is a Russian gymnast😂 not an American.no hate
Yeah I just liked the picture and the dark background fit well with the name lol.
This is what they willingly chose to do....Don't like it, dont sign up for it!!
The tightest pink on earth😍
So overdramatic! Hard training and all, but, as a team, USA leaves a lot to be desired in ARTISTRY, FORM and SOPHISTICATION.
Gael Garcia Bernal yet they currently dominate
@@TheNonMakeupGuru yet there are a lot of injustices in the world, corruption is rampant, Donald Trump is US president, etcetera.
So, what's your point? The world is turned upside down.
