You're not at trials to survive them, you're there to take charge, MyK! Be mindful of your thoughts and mindset; stay positive, trust your training, and give it all you've got. This is your time to shine! xo
It's so crazy that it's almost trials, I've been so invested in your journey I didn't realised how fast the time has passed. I can't even imagine how nervous you must be. We're cheering for you! Good luck! You'll kill it!
@@cantcatchit grace has not proven herself that she can hit on even her key events. The fourth spot is up for grab and it will go down to who hits at trials
To be fair it should be jade on the team. She will have similar, if not higher scores on vault and higher scores on beam/bars/floor. If jade didn’t have that individual spot, I don’t think mykayla would even be considered a candidate. Unfortunately for jade she will probably be left off the team even if she helps the team more than another gymnast because she have an individual spot. Mykayla should stick around for worlds and snatch a vault medal when Simone takes a break
You are going to freaking KILL IT at trials. So proud of you no matter the results. You have worked so hard and it’s going to be sad that this is the last time we will see you compete. Praying for you and cheering from Tennessee.
Girl! I am 23 and I am so excited that someone fresh out of college is going! Good for you girl! Believe in the process! I was a gymnast once upon a time. Thank you for your inspiration.
I’m so exited to watch you at trials! No matter what happens remember, you made it so far already and just go have fun and enjoy it you’ve worked so hard.
Hoping you can find the strength at the end of your routine to do that triple. It’s gorgeous! Either way you are going to kill it. Sending good vibes your way. I’ll be rooting you on from Chicago❤️
That last beam routine was SOLID! Your are going to nail these trials and I can’t wait to see you in Tokyo representing our country!! You are a bada$$, YOU’VE GOT THIS!!!
MyKayla, you look like you are peaking at the right time! You look so strong and in control of all of your gymnastics!! Your body knows the skills, now you just need to let them happen!! It'll be a dream come true to watch such an event that I've been dreaming of since I started the sport at age 4!! I hope I can get your autograph!! Go get 'em!! You got it MyKalya!! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!!!
I love how your coaches always give positive follow up! It's nice to see because obviously this is an incredibly hard sport and it takes a village! Good luck out there Mykayla!
I realized watching this that I’m going to really miss your head coach. I’m wondering how coaches learn to coach at your level considering you are a rarity. I’m really excited for trials!!! Counting down!!!
Seeing you throw down incredible clutch performances at the last trials is what turned me into such a huge fan of yours, I have such respect and admiration for the way you rose to the occasion. Hoping to see it come full circle with you again rising to the occasion and this time getting what you deserve!
this has been the best gymnastics season overall since 2016, everyone is so hungry you can feel it. also so many older gymnasts coming back is awesome.
It amazes How mykayla can pull off the double double dismount out of any giant, It really doesnt matter how the giant before looks like, she always does it, we call that consistency ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You got this! I would say as a community we are so proud of you and all of our gymnasts competing. Stay strong and act like you own it (even if you do not feel like you do.)
Have confidence in your bhs full tuck on beam at trials! You nail it at practice every time so don’t let the nerves get to you at trials. Can’t wait to cheer you on! I 💯 believe in you and that you will be on the team!
I really want you to make the Olympics!! I’m an avid gym fan, and to get a higher score on uneven bars you could easily do, if you keep your legs together, on the shap for example! You could make up at least 0.7 if you keep your legs together
In my eyes, you have already been, and already are an Olympian. Your skills, abilities, pushing through injuries, keeping up training and the diet… your commitment, skill, and perseverance is the same of all Gold medalists of history. You have all around gorgeous abilities, and to me, you don’t HAVE to show them at the Olympic to prove your good worthy. It all comes down to showing off “perfection” at this single moment.. and that’s just silly, cuz a lot of it is luck. Everyone falls, even the “greatest”. To not fall at one moment is always a gamble. No one can perfectly always land a difficult move.. that’s what makes it difficult! 😆 I’m rooting for you and I pray you frikkin kill it again trials! You’ve worked so hard and pushed through so much, I already am so happy for you. You will do your best, and don’t forget, you have already proved you are an Olympian. Don’t let the negative thoughts creep in, you have a mind made of steel. Focus on your accomplishments, and let go of all “what if’s”. You are a fuckin badass, and you got this.
Just wanted to say that regardless of what happens at Olympic trials, you should be SO PROUD of yourself. You've worked so hard. You deserve a spot on that team (and not as an alternate)! Give it your all, and we'll be here supporting you the whole way! Sending positive vibes you way and praying they see all your hard work and talent!
Good Luck Rockstar 🤩. You are going to do great…be confident! Trust your training, discipline, hard work, and love of the sport! You’ve got this…”Let’s 👏🏻 Go 👏🏻” Cheering for you all the way from South Texas ♥️🤍💙
Wow! Can't believe it's almost here. I've been following your career since you were NCAA! You've paid your dues, and I know how bad you want it all! I'll be rooting for you MYK, all the way! Keep your ass positive girl! Just know... win, lose or draw... You're a true champion! Congratulations getting this far and for all your achievements! Don't forget to take God with you...Good Luck MYK!
No matter what happens at Trials, you should be proud of what you have accomplished. Your bars is sooooooooo much better. All of your events are stronger and you've persevered to get to Trials with a bum ankle. I'm rooting for you kiddo!
McKayla's looking really solid for trials. I think whether she makes the team or is an alternate will depend on equal parts how she does, and how well others may not do. Unfortunately, she can only control how consistent (& clean) she is. I wish her much luck!
You literally look like a super hero flying! Your strength & speed! You must be feeling all the the things, you got this, we're super proud of you & behind you 🥰🥰🥰
I absolutely cannot believe that trials are this weekend. Thinking in my head I was like ok cool another 2 weeks then I said wait what?? We are all in your corner myk! You got this!! Love and positive energy from Texas. DRILL IT! ❤️
Omg your toe point on bars has improved so much!! I am so happy to see how far you've come. You're making AZ so proud and have faith you'll make the team. You are so amazing Myk! Keep it up.
Wishing you all the very best at Trials, MyKayla! You’ve worked so hard, and it will pay off. Be confident! You are awesome! It’s been so fun watching your journey on RU-vid. I and many others will be cheering for you.
@@jellocat4100 I was just suggesting it because she was already training a triple twist. The full twisting double layout does present some problems because some gymnast aren’t accustomed to only performing one twist in the laid out position.
Myk, I wish you a wonderful experience at your last Trials. Enjoy the 2 days as much as you can. Remember that you CAN do this! I am so proud of your journey, whatever happens, you did the best you could
I'm so proud of you girl! You have really cleaned up everything so much. I'm so impressed. You fricken got this!!! Don't evvvvveeeerrrr doubt your talent!! ❤❤❤
Can’t wait to watch you at trials!!! You are going to do an AMAZING job - just remember to think positive and believe in yourself! Good luck Myk, we’re rooting for you!!!
You got this!! Go get em, will be cheering you on super loud. You've worked so hard it shows in your skills just be confident in yourself. We love you!
You just get better and better! Be confident in your training and kill it at trials!! I’ll be watching and cheering “Go Myk” just like the gymnasts at the gym!
Oh Myk I am so excited/nervous for you bc I know how hard you have been working for this and not just this quad but in 2016 as well an even before that! All you can do at this point is trust yourself and your training !!!! I hope you make this team so bad but no matter what happens you should be proud of all you have accomplished! Good luck and stay focused! Tokyo here comes Mykayla Skinner!!!!
I’m excited to watch you at trials, MyKayla! No matter what goes down, you and the rest of the squad will always have my support. Good luck. Take care. Peace and love😊👊🏾🤘🏾💙
You got this Myk. I’m so excited to see you rock Olympic trials. Just be confident in yourself. You are such an inspiration to many people, including me. I’m rooting for you!! 🏃♀️🤸🏼♀️💪🏻❤️
I love watching you in the gym and am so proud of how far you've come with all the obstacles you continue to overcome! You are an inspiration and I'm rooting for you to crush it at Olympic Trials!
Well kiddo, I have been one of your biggest critics, but you have persevered, you have improved markedly, and you have earned my admiration. Best of luck, go out there and do what you know how to do and let it ride from there! I'll even be rooting for you!
Goodluck Mykayla!! I’m so proud of you and your gymnastics journey and I KNOWWWW you’re going to kill it at trials!!! Also Your punch front step out to triple looks super solid so hopefully you can build your confidence up to end your floor routine with it!
I love watching you perform! Tonight you were such an inspiration and of course, your personal story always is! I know you will represent our country in Tokyo and get a few gold medals girl! The stage is YOURS!
Ahhh been waiting for this! You should be SO proud of your elite comeback and how much you’ve accomplished! I know you’ll kill it at trials!!!!! You got this Mykayla!❤️👏🏻
Few more days for trials,so proud that you've been working hard to achieve ur goal,praying you'll be picked for team or for specialist, go for it girl!
I always have the sense you are understandably (especially after Covid & pneumonia) exhausted near the end of your routines. I have the sense that contributes to your ability to execute in the gym though also to going out of boundaries, errors, some loss of form, etc. in competition. If you have access to beach, sand courts or sand pit, you might consider doing interval sprints: jog then sprint half-beach volleyball courts continuously, repeatedly, in soft sand. It's important to stretch a lot before and after to maintain flexibility, since running in sand can tighten quads. Coupled with a lot of stretching and rolling out, especially quads, IT bands, calves, etc., it is relatively light on joints. 10 minutes working up each day to eventually, e.g., 20 minutes as well as increasing speed of jog eventually to running and sprinting more rapidly. Results in noticeable increase in stamina in just a few days and doesn't take much time daily. To add challenge, going uphill then circuit training between each interval during the second half of intervals can be added. E.g., continuous interval sprints uphill in sand then interval sprints interspersed with pull-ups on bars, rings pull-ups, pommel, with apparatus change at each interval. Changing it up appears to challenge stamina even more. Also, don't risk a fall though sustained deep yoga-breath stretches, e.g. forward bend sitting on bathroom floor in steamy air as epsom salt bath runs is helpful. Use of a small towel cushions against hard floor/ground. Every breath deepens overall stretch. I don't think anyone maintains all added flexibility gained in heat, steam or water outside though do maintain a lot.
Good luck MyKayla!! You’ve put an incredible amount of work into your training and it has certainly payed off! I hope all goes well at trials and that you have a great time out there no matter what happens :)
It's so surprising that it is trials soon mykayla you have improved so much on every event especially uneven bears just seeing the work that you did in the video was absolutely amazing. This might sound crazy but you are my favourite bar worker. Good luck at trials rooting for you. 💖♥️❤️✨
What sticks out to me more than anything else in the video is that when Mykayla performs, her entire gym stops to watch. Whatever happens this week, you are an inspiration to so many gymnasts across the country, both young and “old!”
I’ve been rooting for you for so long I literally cried when you didn’t make Rio lol but I’m so proud of and can’t wait to see you this weekend. You can make this team!!
