Even if you never compete again, I'm proud of you for not letting those toxic people of the past decide how your gymnastics career ends.

I found out. Basically Chellsie was trying to make a 2012 comeback but fell multiple times on beam, and that turned out to be the last routine of her career because national team coordinator Marta Karolyi decided not to let her advance to nationals, which many saw as unfair and toxic because Nastia Liukin advanced to nationals despite also falling many times on bars and ended doing so also at nationals

The Andy/Chellsie team needs to be a sitcom. The “call the waambulance!” 😂😂😂
«I feel like a gymnast again». That made me so happy that she's doing incredible skills and she just loves doing/trying it. I mean, Chellsie you are an absolute Legend ❤️❤️.

Hahaha yeah, seemed like it Andy is absolutely hilarious 😂
I just love EVERYTHING about her... Her nerves, her guts, her relationship with her coach dad... Her smile... Like she just has fun and goes for it... She's a pleasure to watch... More than teenagers who seem so stressed and nervous... I just love that she's nervous but she still just seems like she's having fun... I want her to go for it all because I think it shows young gymnasts that you can do it and you can have it all. She's inspiring.

I'm 45 and I didn't start to tumble until I was 17. I always wanted to do gymnastics and when I got my driver's license I just found a gym and started learning to tumble. It was in a rec class and the coach was a parent who didn't know much. I basically had to teach myself. I progressed super fast and since there was no men's team or program the women's team started having me tumble with them. Eight months later I was doing double fulls, double backs and full-ins in the pit. I ended up teaching women's gymnastics for 15 years (all levels through 9/10). I never stopped tumbling and even though I am 45, I still tumble in the grass and on my tramp. I'd love to have an air floor or spring floor with a pit so I could do doubles again. It is so fun. It feels like flying. Actually I remember the softest floor I tumbled on was a ski floor. Those are nice! I also have seen amazing air tracks on KZread which would also be cool. You're inspiring to me. I'm Chusovitina's age, so it is definitely still possible to do gymnastics.
There are elite athletes who hadn't yet reached their prime at 32. We have allowed people to dictate the ideal age for sports like gymnastics and figure skating for too long. She has incredible strength and focus and I would love to see her out there again.
As a gymnastics fan it's been really cool to see you go from just trying out a couple flips on the floor to now training all four events again. Can't wait to see where this journey takes you!
I'm watching this at 1AM again....but it's tottttttttaly worth it!

2020 Olympic Trials aren't going to have to worry about the juniors who can age qualify with the extra year.... They're going to have to worry about Chellsie.
The best part of Sunday!!!!
Chellsie: "I did a full!" (after 8 years and 2 kids). Her training partner: "That's it??" 🤣🤣🤣
I know i am just some random person on the internet but i want to let you know watching this videos and your progress makes me extremely happy! Comeback or not, i am rooting for you! Also, since you're putting all Arabians on beam, double arabian dismount coming when? XD

"I feel like a gymnast again" But you see, Chellsie, you always were. With the successes, the injuries, the fights, the determination, the bad luck...but most importantly, with your talent and passion for this wonderful sport. I'm loving SO much your videos, you're truly awesome. Comeback or not (even if i'm rooting for the former) you're one of a kind and you deserve everything! Don't let the people in the past write your story. YOU are the only one that decides how and when to do it. and you're incredible like that, yes. So proud of you! ♡♡♡♡♡

it's June 2023 now and these videos are a couple years old now. i watched them when they came out and followed this documentation of Chellsie's journey. it makes me feel good to know how much she enjoyed this part of her journey and to get to see all the joy she has for the sport. I hope we get more videos someday! it doesn't matter to me if she competes or not, it's just a joy to get to see her love for the sport and all the antics of her family and friends. and let's be honest, Andy is a star too
Do something in life that makes you as happy as double layouts make Chellsie.

i’m so proud of chellsie, even though i’m a little younger than she was when she was at the olympics! this is so inspiring for athletes (really everyone) of all ages!!
I think we're gonna see the piked arabian on beam really soon.. maybe the double lay on floor and afew pirouettes on bars. this progress is so fast, but feel so slow cause I can't wait to see what happens next. I'm so excited for chells!
I absolutely love watching your progress and your joy in it.
I get so excited when her videos come out. It's so awesome to see how effortless she makes it look. It's so natural and easy when its anything but. Brava!!!!

Glad you had such a great workout and that all 4 events are starting to come together (scary, but you've got this!) Your double lay on floor was giving me life - I know what it's like to start tumbling again after being away from it for a while - literally one of the best feelings in the world! I was totally cracking up with you on the cast handstands on bars, haha. And your girls are so thoughtful and creative - I need a "Chell Ya!" pin ASAP! :)

You are amazing. I wish I could go back to do some gymnastics but I’m 49 and my two shoulders are a mess, but I adore 🥰 watching you
Chellsie you totally have that piked Arabian on beam. You are awesome and inspiring. Keep it up!
I train horses, and while it is obviously nothing like gymnastics, there are still many, many scary moments that I have to overcome. One of my mentors once told me that nervousness is simply our brain asking our body if it's ready to do what it's about to be asked to do. That has helped me some, to understand where my nerves come from and quiet them a bit.
