True, but women are judged on different standards. This is obvious that almost all female Olympic Gymnasts are 18 or younger. Men's limiting age is more in line with other Male professional athletes.

As a former gymnast, the body shaming coming from your own coaches and fellow gymnasts happens more often than people would think. What people don’t tell you is that in order to have energy for your body to perform in optimal shape you need to eat properly, exercise responsibly and have a good sleeping habit. I was too thin for my own good and couldn’t gain weight until way into my 20s and had severe iron deficiency both from genetics and not eating during my most intense training years. She is pure muscle. People body shaming her have a very distorted image of what a professional gymnast should look like.

She's an excellent gymnast and the people that were saying some of the most cruel things about her are people that have no idea how difficult of a sport this is. Gymnastics is far more than being limber and being able to perform gymnastic stunts. Gymnastics involves the ability to control your mind and your emotions. A nervous gymnast is going to make errors and a tired hungry gymnast is going to make mistakes. This woman blossomed into a beautiful young woman and unless she was going to starve herself to continue to compete she did herself a huge favor by going to the NCAA.

I don't quite understand the "but you don't look like a gymnast" comments. I've seen gymnasts with the more triangular shape - broad shoulders and narrower hips but I've also seen a good number of them with bodies more similar to hers. They all tend to have one thing in common, even if not structured the same - thickness (meaning muscle thickness) and she has that, obviously. She definitely LOOKS like a gymnast. Wtf?

She is so amazing!! Her routine always make me emotional, with tears in my eyes!! She is a perfect 10!!!

oh I love this. Sport gets more and more about perfection but she seems to have fun as well. We shouldnt forget to enjoy what we do.

Amazing young lady. Those body shamers couldn’t do a tenth of what she can do. Stay strong!!

This is amazing! It takes time to open up and she did it

This young lady has something very very special. She performs movements on the gym floor that defy physics! And not only that she's so humble! People don't have the right to criticise her or her body image. I bet 100 percent of those bad mouthing her couldn't even come close to performing the moves she can. So who's the idiots now? There's great things In front of this youngster and I wish her all.ybe very best. Wow what a legend!

I am so in love with this awesome young lady. My granddaughter is built the same way. She is now trying to get over her 3 rd. hip surgery. She took gymnastics since the age of 3 and was so heart broken when she had to stop competing at age 14. At 17 she’ll be heading to college this fall with a full ride in cheerleading. Love the new routine Katelyn! You light up everyone as soon as your music starts. It’s not hard to tell you are finally in tune with your body, heart and soul. Don’t let anyone take that from you.

That was a nice conversation ! 😀

Very Beautifull young lady. So fun to watch her perform, she is amazing at what she does!

You are absolutely gorgeous. I adore your routines! You’re really something special.

*This woman is a powerhouse! Absolutely an extremely talented athlete...Congratulations!* 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

And it's amazing that she opens uncomfortable topics so easily and naturally. She's amazing free spirit Beautiful flower 🌼

Love that she knows everything is energy.

And Valeri is still going to deny this, even though everyone says it's true and multiple gymnasts have the same story.

Arthur Korff it’s a weighed belt used for resistance training. When you take off the belt it’s easier to leap/tumble.

Weight belts and ankle weights are often used on elite athletes training regimen, the purpose is to add weight so that when they do a leap for example they left from the ground stronger and with more power. My son a ms sprinter trains while pulling weights and using ankle weights to do conditioning and he has abs year round.

She deserves all the love and support from all her fans and supporters 😊

I guess as that video blew up is when I found it in my feed. She was amazing and for what she has to do her body is perfect I can't even fathom body shaming such a beautiful young lady. She has such a great smile it brightens the day just as her routine.did when I watched. Pure joy in a job well done.

tremendous athlete, such a humble person, and so grounded

You are awesome and will surpass all those who feel that your not good enough. I think you're fantastic. Wish you the best.

She is perfect and beautiful, and what she can do in gymnastics is amazing. It's not realistic what the coaches wanted young girls to do at such a young age. So proud of you hun, of all that you have accomplished. Well done.

Great athlete, very busy, unique ... and there will never be any more like that. She manages to adjust the time of each action in a magical way, despite the maximum performance .. a true queen of the athletic genre. a living power 🙄👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏.. wonderful👏👏👏

I am so happy she is speaking out about the body shaming, I feel her story will help many young ladies. She is precious 💖 I don't care how many times videos of her performances pop up i watch them every time. Her energy and grace has been missing from gymnastics since the 70s or 80s, it has become almost robotic. The sets are evolving like crazy but it has lost personality and individuality. Love ya Katelyn
