After their gold medal performance, some are calling the 2012 United States women's gymnastics team the greatest in U.S. history.
Historically, the average age of U.S. women's gymnastics teams has hovered around age 16 -- and this year is no different. On the 2012 U.S. women's gymnastics team, ages of the athletes range from 15 to 18 years of age.
But we were curious: does the age of a gymnast really matter? Are younger gymnasts putting their bodies at risk by competing so heavily while so young? We asked University of Minnesota experts to find out.

I know this video is a bit older so I hope I can get some answers! Gymnastics have always been apart of my life however my family couldn’t afford it so I would do it at home and was pretty successful. I lost my skills because i was upset that I couldn’t do real training. I’m 18 now and it’s really the only thing that I truly enjoy doing but because of my age I’m getting denied a lot at gyms and I feel super alone when people do take me because everyone else is a lot younger and has more experience than me 😕 idk if I should just accept the fact that I’m too old or if I should keep going! I’m totally fine knowing I’ll never be professional but I enjoy it for fun :)

i always loved gymnastics at the age i could've started gymnastics i was doing cartwheels and splits at like 5 and i was really flexable and part of me now is telling me that i should've begged my mom to put me in gymnastics, but now im 13 and idek if i'll be able to join because some of my family members are saying that im to old :( thats always been my dream to be in gymnastics but my mom never puts me in it :( i learned my backhandspring, back walkover, front walker, and etc at the age of 11 by myself, and i watch gymnastics championships with makayla maroney, kyla ross, simone biles, alicia sacramone, aly raisman, gabby douglas, madison kocian, margzetta, and jordan chiles :D their my favourites and their really making me CRAVE for gymnastics, i hope i get to become a gymnast one day :(

I started gymnastics when I was in the 3rd grade but quit a year later, I am in 6th grade now and have been regretting it since 5th grade but never signed up again because I thought it was to late, this regret has been stopping my ability to sleep and all I want to do is start again, is 12 to young? Wanted to add that I quickly pick up on things I'm a fast learner, learned rollar skating fast learned math, anything taught was like absorbed to me. I started really regretted it so much more during the begging of 6th grade when a new girl came to class and she was a gymnast. I'm starting 7th grade in like 4 months idk what to do

For the flexibility, just stretch everyday and eventually you will see a difference. When quarantine started, I started stretching everyday. I was not even close to my splits and now I can do my over splits and touch my feet to my head. You just have to practice and you will improve!
