Chasing your dreams, it’s important to start early. However, there must be certain limitations as to how far you can push at certain age limits. A similar case of a young gymnast going full throttle has gone viral on the internet recently. Apparently, the young gymnast in the video practices at the ‘First State Gymnastics Facility’. The facility provides training to kids starting from 18 months up to 11 years and above. 

While trying to give in a one hundred effort is good, it is not always wise to try too much. Otherwise, instead of fulfilling your dreams, you can end up bruised and battered even before reaching your full potential. Such was the situation that most of the internet users were left dumbfounded.

Young gymnastics athlete’s fraught with danger 

The kid, who was allegedly 7 years old, was spotted swerving dangerously over and over again around the bars. It can be assumed that the kid was part of one of the various programs that the First State Gymnastics Facility offers. Some of the courses offered by the facility include New Ninja Courses, Regular Classes, Summer, Winter & New Year Camp, & Competitive Team. Interestingly, the institution boasts of big names like Morgan Hurd(All Around World Champion 2017), & Audrey Snyder(Junior National Team Member).

While the bio of the website describes their programs as “safe”, the video of the girl posted by an X account ‘Jamie’, says otherwise. The caption of the post also reflected a shocked reaction as it read, “I just watched a 7-year-old do an inbar.” For the uninitiated, an inbar is an extremely dangerous move, where the gymnast has to swing around the bar with her legs in a piked stance. 

Not only that, while performing an inbar, one has to keep the feet by her head while going around. While the kid did pull off the stunt perfectly, the health implications that might come along concerned the fans. Taking their concerns to the comment section, the fans criticized the young lady. 

Netizens give their two cents on the fatal Inbar routine

The post received about 85k views at the time of reporting this video. Netizens were quick to react. One of the users added a response hilariously. 

Another fan commented that although the stunts appeared to be ‘beautiful’, she was concerned about her back.

One Twitter user seemed seriously concerned about the future of the little girl as she added-

Another user mentioned that the little child is just having fun pulling off the stunts and criticized the reaction of others. 

“She’s going to lose em if she push this much”, added another fan.

Thus, the video teaches us that we must not always go for aesthetically pleasing maneuvers. Rather, sometimes, for our own safety, it’s important to take a step back and go slow.
