Answer 6

It's never too late to start gymnastics!  You might not make it to the Olympics, but you could learn enough to compete on a club or school team, which is a great experience!  And even if you never compete, there are so many benefits from gymnastics.  The strength, flexibility and coordination you'll gain will help you with any other sport you might do.  You'll stay in great shape, and you'll become more confident and comfortable with your body.  You'll learn to do all kinds of cool skills that most of your friends can't do.  And besides all that, gymnastics is really fun!  So tell your friend to go for it... and why not go along with her?  You might enjoy it!

Answer 7

I don't think she is too old. She will just need to put in extra effort and practice time if she wants to compete or be on a team. If she really wants to do gymnastics, she will do both.

Hope this helps! ^^
