yeah like i think now that "Shawn Johnson" is the new gymnast coaches and other gymnast look up 2,i think coaches less focus on the "stick thin" gymnast and tell their gymnast to be more like muscle like Shawn johnson

Dominique didn't talk about the worst things that happened. She also claims Bela weighed her infront of the whole 2000 team and mocked her weight (she claimed she was 70 lbs them). He also yelled at Kim Zmeskal because of her weight and made her run outside with a sweater on in the summer. None of those gymnasts were big to begin with.

I don't think eating disorders are good in any sport; gymnastics, football, etc.

The sad reality is that female artistic gymnasts very often perform their best when their around 14, which means a lot of hard training at a young age.

Her dad made the junior national team. That's a pretty good accomplishment in a major gymnastics country. I think her mom got to an elite level, but I don't have evidence of her making the national team.
