    Texas dreams, the experts in breaking amazing gymnasts
    Bailie Key tops the list as the most broken gymnast, so broken she only competed one shaky routine during 4 years in college, such a talent list in vain
    Then we have Macy Toronjo, we can say she’s more lucky because she got to compete few times at UCLA, obviously not reaching her full potential because of injuries
    We also have Ragan Smith and Emma Malabuyo. The former had some success in the beginning but her two years as a senior were painful to watch as she tried to stay competitive while clearly injured, and didn’t have a proper closure to her elite career. Same with Emma : huge success as a junior, than disappeared as a senior because of an injury after the other, at least we got see her in 2021 but it was a bit too late to catch up to gymnasts who has few years of internationals experience and progress
    They’re both doing well though in college, sth we can’t say about Toronjo or Key

    I love her! I remember watching her years ago. I met her in person a couple of weeks ago. Her son was at the region 3 elite team camp with my son and it was time to go home for the day. Her son, Koda, had out his Pokemon cards and the boys were gathered around him looking at the cards when I turned around and saw her standing there, waiting to pick him up. I said "HI!" and she said "Hi"- I was so star struck I didn't know what else to say...I didn't want to sound like a creepy stalker! LOL! Her son is an extremely talented gymnast and I can see him going far!

The girls seem happy and I love how they compete against each other in training. Makes it so interesting. This was a great documentary.

    This was epic story telling. Getting to see the evolution of triple whip back Kim Zmeskal from phenom to coach was so insightful. You can see her love of gymnastics. It's so evident that her teaching and coaching is so special. You can see her empathy, care, energy, and personal attention she gives to her students. Those kids are so lucky to be learning from a Master. I hope the legacy USA gymnastics that Bella and Martha built gets passed to Kim and her husband.

    I just love you, Kim Zmeskal. You & Kathy Johnson are my all time fav's. Your style was so impeccable - you were just so absolutely beautiful in your presentation and style. I haven't caught up with you for so many years, and to watch this just made me cry. I've been a competitive gymnast and long-time coach, and though it's at a much lower level, I strive to always coach like you - very focused and goal-oriented, but sincerely dedicated to each child. I knew you were that kind of coach - the perfect kind. And your husband is the perfect match for you from what I can see, and I'm so glad you guys are happy & successful. With respect ...Marie

    Great documentary! So nice to see how Kim has matured into an adult and such a great coach. I was disappointed when she stopped competing, but loved her perspective that while she will probably always miss that, she finds coaching "so much more interesting." I think "try to be different" will be my new mantra. Or, Chris' "Let me give you a neck massage!" 😀

    Chris' use of Normative Feedback, is right on the edge, but overall right on. Only negative I see here is the fact that the major gymnasts, Bailie and Peyton suffered horrendous injuries which ruined their elite, and in Petyon's case, college career. I hope these injuries were not the result of being pushed too hard. Now, in 2017 Regan is US champ and favourite for the world title, whilst Emma is 2nd best junior and an early favourite for Tokyo 2020

    I don't know what kind of a dream Texas Dreams is to train at when the coaches allow their gymnasts to compete in pain against their doctor's advice on untreated injuries. As a former gymnast and a current healthcare professional, if I was a coach at any gym I would not allow it. Continued training on top of ignored injuries will result in years of avoidable pain.

    "Chris and I aren't like Marta and Bela"...well thank goodness for that given the recent exposure of the Karolyi's over the top/pretty much abusive coaching practices. She even says at the end that when she was under them the gymnasts weren't allowed to talk to eachother in the gym? Like what the hell....I get wanting to keep them focused but communication is a frickin basic human right

      Sara Lloyd Making kids starve themselves, physically abusing them, and creating an isolated environment for a pedophile to run rampant in is just “a different coaching style.” 🙄 Look at Kim, but look at the gymnasts who were never world champions or Olympic medalists who purposely injured themselves not to go back, who have eating disorders, who have PTSD, how many of the 198 to come forward at the Nassar trial just “had a different coaching style.” Sure abusing already very talented athletes into working even harder has worked, does that mean that we should just keep doing it?

    Personally I couldn’t feel bad for her AT ALL during this because of how horrible she was with the team she train and the fact she new about Nassar sexually abusing the girls and not saying anything no to mention how she would make racist jokes and them they portrayed her as an innocent person in this video it’s so uncomfortable and as a gymnast it nit appreciated like at all-

    The gymnasts are so open with the cameras, unlikely so many other gymnasts. I think the other gymnasts are too afraid to say anything because of the strict atmosphere. These gymnasts are so relaxed.

    Kim seems like a wonderful coach, but IDK, Chris seems a little douchy to me, particularly his “heavy lifting” comment to the young lady he was helping on bars and the way he pits the girls against each other.

    • @LoyaFrostwind
      @LoyaFrostwind 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree. I think if I were training there, I would find him annoying. I'm not good with sarcasm. To each his/her own. It would take me awhile to get used to him.
