I like your black leotard, but I prefer the one at Gk Classics. Also, I love your everyday leotards that you have been posting on your Instagram. They are so modern I’d say, just not the usual. Did you design them? As for your performance, I would like to wish you all the luck tomorrow. I am rooting for you Mykayla!!!!👍🏽❤️👌
Thank you Jonas for getting this edited and posted today. It has been so wonderful watching your progress Mykayla, you look great and you will peak at just the right time. God is in control. Lean on Him!! The best of luck to you on Sunday!!
I’ve been becoming more and more addicted to your channel the more you post... also DAMN GIRL you don’t know how loud I screamed when you did those vaults at Championships!!! You are going great places and will do so many fantastic things in your lifetime, Olympics or not ❤️
You did amazing on day 1 and I'm happily looking forward day 2! Stop thinking about RU-vid, about Instagram, about this being an "End" and then you will stop rushing automatically. You're amazing, throwing some of the hardest skills in the world, a real competitor and so damn experienced. The last routine at the olympics should be your "End" and so many people are sure you can do this - think about that instead! Go Myk!! We love you and you've come so far!
Second on vault🥈, solid on floor 🤸🏼♀️and on BARS! National team member, Olympic trials bound and You gave yourself a fighting chance! You’ll do better on beam at trials! Also, both Leo’s were chef’s kiss👌🏼! Gorgeous! Love the confidence and pride after vault!
"This is my last Championships..." That's the reason you keep rushing. Stop saying that, out loud and to yourself. Stop thinking about it. You've got the Vlogs, the training videos, to go along with all the broadcast recordings. You have more to reminisce with than ever before. BUT, this is going to End Here if you don't focus on what you have to do Here to get to the Olympics! This is a Competition, and you need to get your head back into the Competition and out of your "career", otherwise your career is going to be over. Been watching you for the last year and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to watch the training and struggle that goes into being a Gymnist and Olympic athlete. Pulling and Praying for you!!! Edit: Forgot to say this earlier.. Myk you said the same thing during Classics, and made the same mistakes. This is why I believe this is more than you making comments to us during your Vlog, I think this is in your head during the Meets. Stamp It Out! Your a Professional, Go out there and show the World what you've accomplished, and turn Everything else off in your mind until the Competition is Done! ~Luv!
@@Fandomonium456 the fact that this is the last time she'll ever be here IS a source of jitters and nerves. And she is not guaranteed a place at the Olympic Trials. Championships is the largest single metric used for choosing who gets invited to Trials. And it's a smaller number than those in Championship.
I was cheering for you so hard from my living room, and i know i m not the only one. Thanks for taking us on this journey with you, it makes watching the competitions so much more personal and exciting!
The Worlds results are in and girl, you nailed it!! Your second day was brilliant! That 2nd Vault was FIRE!! You nailed floor and not one flag today! You just earned your Olympic spot, mark my word. And can we talk about huge improvement on bars- YES!, Congratulations girl, the hard work paid off today!!
Hi MyKayla.......here’s the thing.......you’ve already won a Gold medal in my eyes....and in the eyes of thousands who adore you. I’m astonished by your perseverance, talent and just about everything you are. Your greatest achievement in my eyes is that you’re inspiring so many to fight for their dreams...and teaching so many that they CAN do anything they set their eyes on if they work hard and believe in themselves. You’re a true inspiration. Thank you.
Championship vlog before it's over! Jonas is working overtime! 😁 Before you even mentioned your tan on your hand, I noticed what a nice tan you had when I saw you yesterday. Love your sparkly Leo! Keep shining MyKayla, we're all pulling for you! You got this! Enjoy yourself too, all these years you know what you're doing, believe it. 🤩🥰
I was there! You looked great! Yes everyone is watching...so what? You do big gymnastics and you are great at big gymnastics! Don’t rush it...visualize your beam and bars routines- even your floor dance and passes...in slow motion...in your head...feel the rhythm while visualizing. Get in your space before you hit the competition floor. You got this big time! Don’t rush your routines...Always remember “I rock and I got this.. I can soar! And go for it! I’ll be there cheering you on!
SKINNER! You didn't talk about your bars. You hit every handstand. Be aggressive on day 2. Just like day 1. Your only issue was some leg separations but those handstands deserve so much credit. Be proud of those.
I came from San Antonio to see you mykayla ~! Traffic was so bad I got in when you were doing the bars. What you do in person is nothing like tv. It’s so graceful. I went and said hi when you walked down into the tunnel. Few of us girls on the side saying mykayla!!! But I don’t think you saw me. 😕 Your a inspiration 🎖
Much love to you for your last Championships. I'm glad so many of your loved ones are there. 2020 taught us not to take one another for granted. Jonas rocks for getting video up so quick.
Flip that college switch on beam girl. You looked great! I know it's been a while , but think about how you attack a college beam set. Enjoy that last day ever! The gymnastics coach came out in me😊 You've got it!!!
U did a great job at the championships today. U are my #1 always!!! I watch ur UTUBE everyday. I'm proud of u. I hope u consider doing another 4 years of gymnastics.
Looking forward to an even better Day 2. You are getting better with every meet, so please do give yourself credit for that. It's all going to come good on Day 2, and then there's trials! I'm so happy that your family is there with you, and there's support for you all in the arena. You and your fellow competitors deserve so much credit for making it through this year. You can make this team!
I have very good vibes about day 2...the standings always change dramatically the second day and you always hit the second day 🙌🏽 keep living in the moment for your last day of champs!
I will admit that I was skeptical of your comeback, but after champ finals (With Simone, Sunni and Jordan pretty much being a lock) I considered who would best fit the fourth spot and I think that you have the best chance! Especially given your wealth of comp experience and your difficulty, I think you might be the safest bet. If you show up to trials and really hit your routines, I think you could easily get that last spot!
I didn't know a lot about you in the last quad, but man I have throughly enjoyed getting to know you, see your life, and see the behind the scenes of your gymnastics. You are just the sweetest, most down to earth girl ever. You don't get a lot from a 2 hour meet every couple of weeks in the spring/summer from the elite girls, so I have loved this youtube channel so much. Very happy to support you and Jonas and your journey to this next olympics. Thanks for sharing Mykayla! I was screaming hard at the TV the whole two days of competition during Nationals :)
MYK! Absolutely killed it this weekend! It made me so happy to watch your floor, like I could see how much you were enjoying it :D. It's crazy to see how far you've come! Hope tha heel/foot is still going strong
MyKayla good luck on Day 2! I too am cheering hard for you from my living room. You are an amazing athlete. I can't wait to watch you at Olympic Trials.
I'm glad you and Chellsie are together, what a great duo! It's good that you take naps. You have been working so hard. Do well! Oh, I love that you still wear the same bun that you wore when you first started, it's adorable!
Honestly big shout-out to Jonas for documenting and editing everything so well, the entire channel is such a joy to watch! And of course thanks MyKayla for bringing the quality content :D
I've been watching your journey back since the beginning and it's inspiring to see all the challenges you've overcome to get here. Enjoy the moment as much as possible and the rest will work itself out. Can't wait to see night 2, good luck! Cheering for you from FL!❤
I was just your 1,000 like :-) So satisfying to watch it go from 999 to 1,000 likes. I watched day one of Championships (from start to finish) today (Saturday)... You are rocking it! Can't wait for tomorrow. Keep showing all of your progress & strengths 💓 Fine tune your power. Have fun, Mrs. Competitive 😎 I bet it's more of a debate between you being an all-around-er or a specialist, at this point. You are going to Tokyo!!! 🇺🇲
You’re so funny! You’re at championships!! We (or at least I) don’t expect you to be focused on filming haha. But thanks for sharing what you can. So fun rooting for you. It’d be great to see you react to your routines after it’s all done so we can see what was going on in your head.
Aahhh, so proud of how far you've come!!🤩 Regardless of what happens, I think you should be proud for how much you've done for yourself, coaches, and your fellow national team members. If Tokyo won't work in the end, I believe you should keep your head high for worlds in Copenhagen this October, and make achievements and goals for yourself, getting more and more experience! Whatever happens is what happens, but you've done so much towards the U.S team 😊
If Copenhagen is off the list, you're such a positive and dedicated athlete towards everyone and the team! Wishing the best of luck on day 2 and Trials!
Thanks MyKayla! You are one of our American treasures. I was a gymnast in hs and one classmate actually was on the 1972 US Gymnastic team, Joanie Moore. So I want to see you in Tokoyo!!!
Thanks for doing these. Love watching you. My heart is in my throat the whole time you're competing. Sunday they failed to show the majority of any athlete's routines. They showed you on vault, but that was it. You nailed that event. The second one was so so good I almost woke Austyn. I'm frustrated they didn't do a replay. It was so well done. I pray you don't have plantar fasciitis. It's so painful and for me at least it's not going away. One of the best things for it has been wearing only flat footed shoes and really cushioned ones at that. I literally can't go barefoot anymore unless I'm at the beach an even that's for a limited amount of time. My PT did a ton of scraping and stretches and exercises and they help, but I'm likely at the point of needing surgery. Given all your ankle and foot rehab it's not a stretch to think they need to work there too. Best of luck at Olympic Trials and in Tokyo!!!! Sending love, healing vibes, and well wishes!
I loved that classic black leo. That mint green one you wore for training was beautiful! Your vaults were fire!!!!! Good luck Sunday! And I think you should pull a Chellsie and come back in 10 years.
The bionic husband! It’s Saturday and he got it edited and up! Plus runs for food! Awesome! Your make up and hair looked beautiful!! You rocked a ton of gymnastics! Can’t wait for tmrw!! Loved that you were in that group! ❤️🤸♂️👀📣
I love how pumped you get when you know you nailed it! Not many gymnasts show that passion and the fun side of things. Haven't watched your video yet but I saw your routines and you did great! Day 2 will be even better. Remember to savor these moments too!
So rooting for you Mykayla!!! Keep killing it out there 💖💖 btw so upset that nbc didn’t show your bar routine live because it looked GREAT! Good luck and kill it on day 2!!!!
I only slept for 1 1/2 hrs last night cuz i got up to watch u compete live. You did great myk😍😍😍 lets hit day 2 too. Luv u and rooting for u😊. Be safe girl♥️
You did amazing! Beam is Beam. No matter how prepared you are sh*t can happen. It's a weird event, where we can't try to make it "different" or "better" because it's a meet, just do normal! You got this! Love following your journey and will miss watching your gymnastics.
You were great! I saw all of your routines in person and I can not explain how excited I was to see u in person! Ily so much. I hope day 2 goes just as great!
Your sister did a great job on your hair and makeup!!! Cheering you and Chellsie on tonight!!! And thank you Jonas for your dedication to editing Mykayla’s videos!!!
Just wanted to say wow. I subscribed to Flo here in Canada so I can watch. I was able to watch your podium training and you were awesome. You hit the beam routine with a vengeance. So proud of you. I also loved your bar routine at competition. I get a little upset when Flo doesn’t show when you’re on grrr. But I’m watching. You’re doing great and I’m really routing for you. Looking forward to watching you on Sunday. It’s actually on TV here this time. So excited. BTW it’s so nice to watch all the talking and smiling with the girls during competition. It’s wonderful. 🥰🥰
Wow, already a vlog from competition day one! Love it. Thanks for taking us along. Fun to see you getting ready, your hair and make-up were on fleek, girl! You did a great job on day 1. All the best for final day of championships!!!
You have the best routines in the world. I cannot wait to see you crush it tonight!! Thanks for posting this vlog during championships for your fans! I will cheering for you tonight!!!
Cheering you on from KY :) I LOVE your channel and seeing "behind the scenes" Thank you for sharing your journey! Best of luck tomorrow! You've got this!!!
You are amazing! Hopefully I will see Jonas tomorrow when I come to watch! He does such a good job helping you with the channel. I will be cheering tomorrow for you!!
@Helen Kister Hmmm. The hardest tumbling I did was front handspring &, using a training harness, standing tuck. I didn't ever go through the steps of learning a proper back handspring since my coach for some reason just thought I'd be able to throw one based on my toe point from ballet, which I didn't understand. I always asked him please to let me go through a progression & learn it properly, since I'd never been taught more than walkovers & then he taught me front handspring, but he insisted I just go straight into throwing a back handspring every class. I always ended up kicking him, as he did my spot. Clearly, I could not build a tumbling pass on that. I can't really comment on those advanced tumbling passes or recommend a combination for an advanced, Olympic gymnast. I look for legs sealed together on bars, toe point, swing, connection, spacing so it isn't going out of bounds & things like that. It seems like she is emphasizing form & holding handstands on bars in training. I look at the dance, height, staying in bounds, form, musicality & things someone that did really basic gymnastics & more ballet/dance can discern. If I am completely honest, I wish gymnasts had the luck of having my ballet teacher, who worked me to point my toes "more, more, more, more." I didn't think muscles like those existed. She refused to continue class & everyone had to wait as she waited for me to keep pointing my foot more more. Then, as my foot hurt pointing it, eventually, she finally said, okay, always point them like that from now on, which I wouldn't have thought possible or attempted if she hadn't done that. It's something you can do while resting. Also, stretching & strengthening feet. And squeezing the inner thighs together. I can't & haven't ever been able to do anywhere near those advanced moves or get that height. I'm not really qualified to make a recommendation. I can't even climb the rope without using tennis shoes-clad feet & ideally gloves. I'll look for that though. :)
MYK OMG I WATCHED YOU DAY 1&2!!! AND WOW WAS I IMPRESSED!! YOU ARE MY FAVORITE GYMNAST EVER!!! YOU WILL DO AMAZING AT OLYMPIC TRIALS!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!! LOVE YOU! ❤️❤️
SO EXCITED FOR DAY 2!! U DID GREAT ❤️❤️ GOOD LUCK HOPING YOU STAY ON BEAM AND STAY IN THE FLOOR DAY 2!! U GOT THIS!! wonder if she will do the triple for the last pass 👀
Thank you soooo much for this video and all of your other videos which have given such an amazing insight into behind the scenes of an elite gymnast. I’ve been really interested in gymnastics since I was young and saw my first olympics. I was no good at it myself but it’s my favourite thing to watch. This year you’ve given me such a fantastic insight. I’m really grateful and I wish you all the best. Thank you xxx
I live outside of Dallas and so much wanted to go but wasn’t able to. I was glued to the TV and can’t wait until Sunday. I know you will rock it! Thank Jonas for this video. 😊
