Soooo readyyyy yayyyy
Yayy
Lol I want to see the reaction of Tom if you practice the triple double off bars
I already did lol
We love you too! Keep pushing lady! You are looking so great! Olympics here we come!! 🇺🇸 MYKAYLA 🇺🇸
As a long-term gym fan, Tom allowing a visit like this to be filmed and us seeing the process and his comments is INSANE. Marta would never, lol. I think his transparency with both the athletes and the community is healthy for the sport
It looks like someone other than
Jonas was filming as well. I wonder
What that was for.
@@CarsenLouise There is a documentary being filmed
I think Tom almost has to be transparent because the past history of secrecy that caused so much heartache.
Agreed!
Yessssss
Does anyone else notice that pretty much everything, including criticism, that comes out of Tom's mouth is positive?
yeah it was cool to see a coach in general for any sport that was encouraging but also helpful at the same time
It shows that he's a good coach. You have to critique so the athletes can improve and positivity is the best way to encourage and push them.
@@katfire4 Yes! Such a 180 from Marta.
That’s what makes him different than Marta I guess
Yes, we all noticed 🙂 and it’s so good to see positive reinforcement in coaching. ☺️
"wait what's van leeuwen" Myk you nail the skill and don't know what its called lol
flutter kick is gone 🔥🔥 🔥🔥
At the same time its Not prunounced that way, so myk wanted to mock them ofc ofc
😬 oops hehe
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial It’s on brand for you, honestly. Chuso wouldnt know what it is either! Lol. It is huge though!!
It’s also called a Maloney half tho
Tom: I was surprised by how many people struggled with the wolf turns
Everyone: Nope not surprised at all
😅😅😅
So true. 🤣
wolf turns look ugly.
@@tazz378 unless performed by whitney bjerken end off story goodbye
I am not the most knowledgeable about gymnastics skills, but I remember a long time ago someone (not an elite like you two) talking about how hard they were for her and she was all excited when she was able to do them. lol. I remember her mentioning giants, also, but I can't remember what she said about those...
Any time I see you comment, it reminds me that I forgot you're in college now. Somehow I keep thinking it's been no time since you were a jr elite. lol.
I bet she was exhausted physically and mentally!! Boy the difference between Tom and Bella & Marta is night and day!! Tom seems kind and encouraging. He wants the best for each gymnast. I would hate to be him at the Olympic Trials. He’s got such a tough job! Great practice MyKayla!
❤️
“Too bad the floor didn’t feel like the tumble track”
😭😭😭same girl, same!
life is rough lol
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial haha yes!!! As a fellow gymnast I feel that!
@@katebriese7106 me too hahahahaha
I have loved gymnastics all my life, 71 now and happy to see what goes into the making of an Olympic champion. I will be praying for your feet. Blessings, and good luck!
💕
The transparency from Tom, WE LOVE TO SEE IT 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 new era, come at us
Yesssss
I am loving the fact that Tom is good with being filmed and everything. He seems so positive!!! And I am loving that everyone can post about gymnastics with no worries and showing their routines! During the Martha era I never saw that.
Lol. Tom did make the comment he wished Suni Lee would stop posting her bar routines 🤣
@@jojox9791 at least he allows it though and doesn't get mad. It's such a huge improvement in my opinion compared to Martha
Well they are different and their methods are different. Thanks to Bella and Martha , us girls gymnastics is were it is now. Now is time for change and is good.
@@chitownlokito but look at what it costs. Yelling and making the girls be scared to eat shouldn't be a thing. Like they are still successful without them
Tom seems so nice and encouraging. I love encouragement over critical perfectionism.
Agreed
Watching you and Chellsie train is giving me life.
13:30 MYKAYLA THIS WAS SO GOOD OH MY GOD
🥰🥰💪🏼
The choreo after her beam landing. I think that needs to work it's way into the routine. It is pure McKayla energy.
This was the best training video ever! I love hearing all of the coaches and Tom being there was extra awesome to see! Also great editing Jonas! Straight to the point not a bunch of extra fluff, it was awesome 🤩
🙌🏼🙌🏼
How awesome is it how Tom is innovating for gymnastics! I love that he’s developing apps and devices to keep your feet together. How cool!
It’s so impressive how quickly you implement advice into your training
Your skills are coming together and they look INCREDIBLE!! Also, that leo looks gorgeous on you 🤩💕
awe thank you so much ☺️☺️
Wait, "Maggie" designed it? Maggie Nichols?
@@michellemathis2381 yes!
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial Love it. I also enjoyed watching Mellow help you pack in a prior video. Routing for you and Mellow to pack for Tokyo together. Stay safe.
You just look like you are having so much fun and you don’t take yourself too seriously. I really appreciate seeing this sort of mentality in a such a serious sport like gymnastics. You are a great role model for young girls!! Thank you!!
MyKayla even I know what a Van Leeuwen is
LOL 😂
you didn't even know what gymnastics was until you met me
Shots fired.😂😭
So nice to see tom being positive and supportive.
A WORLD of difference from Marta AND to be filmed, is amazing!
omg your bars have improved so much. especially the van leeuwen and handstands. clear hip full was 🔥🔥🔥🔥 ROOTING 4 U MYK U GOT THIS
thank you I've been working so hard on them!!!
"The knob."
You impressed Tom! Awesome progress!
Your videos are so good because they show how insanely difficult, time consuming and painful it is to put together a routine at this level of competition.
Anyone else find it so satisfying how when she tumbles onto the mat after her handspring she goes into her tucks and fulls, etc. she hits the same spot every time 🤣💕
This whole journey, watching your prepare, is making me so pumped for the Olympics! You just keep getting stronger and stronger!!
me toooo!
Really a smaller world in US with the top elite..
Those handstands are looking SO MUCH BETTER. Your form is looking amazing! You have worked so hard and it shows.
You handled the pressure like a champ Myk. You are improving every video. Keep it up. I'll be praying for your feet to last! Oh, and I love your Leo!!
❤️❤️❤️
Dang that dismount on the beam is going to be incredible! Girl you have truly come along way this last month with your endurance.💖
But that last one was scary... Hard to do a full in dismount if you run out of beam!
If I may just say. I have noticed and loved how you respond to as many of the people as you can cause a lot of you tubers never look at the comments on their videos or respond. I love you Mykayla😘
It gets hard sometimes when there are so many comments but I really try and I'm glad it's appreciated ☺️
Omg! To much pressure with Tom Watching!!! All video on nerve breacking 😱
GO MYK!!! You Got this!!!!!!
I love how myk just does the skills and doesn't even know the names. Amazing job gurl, keep it up
there's too many to keep track of lol
Anyone else on their 10th or 20th time watching this for both the love of Myk and the freshness that is Tom?? So much so that he lightly teases her about her back handspring?? :D :D Keep up the awesome work Mykayla...you are such an inspiration!!
CANT WAIT TO WATCH THIS!!! the pressure was definitely on
yes but what's new haha
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial good luck on you’re journey to the 2021 tokyo summer olympics i can’t wait to watch them and be able to have a sort of connection to the athletes!! cant wait to see you there myk!!
I would have liked to see a slo-mo close-up of you doing the doorknob technique. Not a gymnast but I’m always trying to figure out the details in the moves. ☺️
You can sense how well her coaches want her to do. For those of us with no gymnast background, it’s amazing to see how hard you work and tired you get yet somehow, you keep on going and producing amazing routines. Crossing everything for you to make the Olympic team!!
your van leeuwen has gotten SO MUCH BETTER!!!! rooting for you girl
What an incredible inside look you’ve shared with us! I just love the new USAG vibe, the transparency and positivity, and my goodness - the talent! Tom has a tough job ahead of him. You deserve this Myk! Stay strong, determined, and keep those feet healthy! We’re rooting for you!
Thank you so much for letting us in. This is such amazing input. As a “new” to the elite program coach to see the real work being done and amazing coaching. Thank you. This has given me and my athletes a lot to talk about and motivate us. Thanks again
Your routines are all coming together so well. Time is flying by so fast it seems.
it really is!! can't believe we're only a few months out
Wow the way these coaches interact with her and each other is outstanding.
It's incredible how many routines/ "long connections?😂" you can do in a day! My arms are already tired after 5 routines, and I'm not very good so the routines are short 😂
oh trust me I get pretty tired lol
I always felt like she didn’t need to straddle up in her cast handstands; she’s so damn strong!
that punch front through to 2 1/2 is gorgeous!!
i hope they select you for the olympic,you are such a good and consistent athlete
hope so too 💕
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial You'll get there! Thank you so much for letting us take this journey with you. It has been a hell of a ride just watching. You are one tough lady. So proud of you! 💕
Thank you. I have watched women’s gymnastics in the Olympics since Olga Korbut before Nadia and have always wanted to see a work out at this level, just before the games. Interesting how all you see is your hard work and none of the “show” of crowds and outfits and tension and excitement, etc. only wish is we got to see you practice your vault! 😊. Congrats on your medal. You sure earned it.
I’m so glad to see you succeeding ! I love these videos and getting to see the progress !
This video makes me so happy !! First, your journey is so strong & inspiring and your skills are lit ! And then seeing you surrounded by all this positive energy is heartwarming :)
Keep up the good work. You are awesome! Praying for you Myk. You have always been the exception to the rules. You get it done when it counts and hopefully this Olympic Coach will realize it. Just stay the course and take the best care of your body. God bless you precious girl!
❤️
Thank you so much for filming so much of the practice! I love this way better hearing what the coaches say and everythingA! Long videos for the win! XOXO Great job!
Love this video. I love watching coaches and gymnasts interact, its really cool to watch. All the best MyKayla. :)
Loved this video! It is so great to see the hard work gymnasts put in. Thank you for sharing your journey!
The hard work is really paying off!!! Great Job can’t wait to see you in the next competitions!!☺️☺️☺️

Oh my gosh I AM SO EXCITED! YOU'RE LOOKING AMAZING!
Way to go! Your hard work is paying off and it's fun to watch. Go MyKayla!!!

Awesome job! They were impressed so that has to be encouraging! Keep up the hard work to reach your goal! Praying for your health and strength!
I love seeing these videos. You’re doing awesome. The bar routine looks beautiful so far.
Your routines are looking so very good, your back muscles are so amazingly strong and the leo shows that off on you!
You’ve got this Myk!
Love this! You are just getting better and better every week! Your bars are 🔥 and I love seeing Tom in this setting! Such a good vibe he gives off! I’m sooo rooting for you for Tokyo!!
Also, every time I see you do the full on the beam I’m in awe and I’ve been watching you do it for years haha so great! 👍🏻
Very cool to follow along on your journey. I love seeing your hardwork and this whole team of people helping you and pushing you. ❤
Myk your bar routine looks very impressive!!!! thank you again for sharing your journey with us!!!!
Tom was one of my coaches from 1998-2002! I miss that guy! Wow. What a blast from the past. He hasn’t aged at all!
Go Mik, everything you do looks so effortless! I'm looking forward to watching more videos
Watching you on bars is literally so relaxing omg, fave part of the vid! Keep up the amazing work!!!!🙈💘
You're so inspiring Myk!
This was so special to watch! I’m a 42yr old Mormon mom, with a ballet school and I feel like you are changing the worlds mind about “too old!” Praying for your success and so happy you have all these coaches and your hubby in your corner! Keep strong!
Have you checked out Chellsie Memmel? She was 2008 Olympian and retired for 10 years...and she is BACK! After 2 kids also! 💪
Great job MyKayla! It is very interesting, informative and impressive to see you getting ready for the Olympics. Your videos add so much to peoples' understanding of the sport and of what elite athletes go through to get to the top. Thanks. Otherwise, we just see you compete on the day. Hats off to you coaches as they are awesome and to their constructive positive criticism. Jonas does an very nice job of shooting the video. Seeing you dial in your routines over the past few months is amazing!!!
Waited for this video for soooo long myk😍. You are doing greatttt🥺♥️ rooting for ya!♥️
Loving the bar upgrades! Super proud of your progress, Myk!
Can’t wait to watch the vid keep going strong Myk
Your reaction to the Van leeuwen was hilarious 😂😂
Rooting for you, Myck!! It was amazing to have this filmed, to share with all of us! 🙌🙌😊
I love everything about her attitude in training! I really hope she makes it to the Olympics
This is an amazing insight into the gymnastics world. Awesome
