[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd rather have an elite gymnast body snd be shorter than the sholders competitive (and even not so competitive) swimming develops. Have a friend who used to swim w the 96/00 swimmers before she decided not to go full olympic prep and she can't find blazers /jackets/coats easily at all, 20 years later.[/quote] I was a world level figure skater even though I decided to leave the sport before the Olympic level. I dropped it because I wanted more time for school and other activities that the 24/7 Olympic training schedule would demand. I took modified gymnastics as part of my training and got to train with the 1984 and the eventual 1988 Olympic gymnastics team. They were all tiny with broad upper bodies and seriously worked themselves to the bone. Now in my 40s I have aches and pains from my time on the ice I can only imagine how some of these women must feel.[/quote]
