Are there any female gymnasts out there? How tall are you?

Question

I am an aspiring gymnast. I am about 65 inches tall. (5 feet, 5 inches) many people always tell me I am not going to be able to do gymnastics because of my height when im older. I have just recently turned 13 and have been doing gymnastics successfully so far, however i am worried because the doctor estimated that i would be 5'7'' by the time i'm done growing. how tall are all of you gymnasts out there?

Answer 1

5'2 or 5'3 and 15 yrs old

Answer 2

Im also 13 and 5'3 actually depending on how many hours u do gymnastics will shock ur growth! Im going 2 b  tall 2 BUT my doc said i cant grow until i quit because i do 9 hours a week So a lot of gymnasts r small because they start young and the burn 2 many calories 2 grow a lot. My doc was a gymnast and she grew 5" the year she quit gym. Interesting huh? n e way DONT QUIT CUZ OF UR HEIGHT dont u love gym US TALL GYMNASTS HAVE 2 STICK TO GETHER lol

Answer 3

i'm 5'2'', but my friend stephanie is 5'6. Also many all-star squads that i have seen cheering have gymnasts that are 5'8''-5'9''. There is no such thing as too tall to be a gymnast. If you can do it, that is all that matters!

Answer 4

DON'T Worry About It!

I am a Gymnast In Level 9, I am Short (5 FT.) But I Have Team Mates Over 5 Ft. 4 In. and They are GREAT Gymnasts!

As Long As You Can Still Do Your Skills, You are Good To Go!

I mean, You CAN Seperate the Bars Farther If Needed =)

Answer 5
