Sofia's Week — A Quick Recap
A short read on the week that was, so nothing gets lost between meets.
A good week. Practices plus a home shaping routine, and her form is starting to look cleaner — pointed toes and stuck landings on skills she used to land sloppy. The beam nerves are the ongoing work; she competed her routine well in practice all week.
- Form — home shaping and flexibility, and clean reps at the gym. Toes pointed, landings stuck far more than a month ago.
- Competing — full beam routines like a meet, salute to dismount. Fought through a wobble instead of restarting.
- The block — coach-led progressions, patiently. A little more confident on the piece each session.
The clean floor pass she stuck in practice — pointed toes the whole way, chest up on the landing. Same skill she's always done, but clean, which is worth real points. That's the whole idea.
- Keep the home shaping and flexibility daily — it's where the form comes from.
- One full beam routine competed like a meet each practice.
- Visualization before her next meet — compete it clean in her head first.
- Patience on the block — let her coach lead it.
One thing to keep an eye on: is she pointing her toes and sticking landings, or just getting skills around? Does she compete through a wobble or restart? And is the block being worked with patience, not pressure? Those are the tell for everything else.
