I haven't watched the last 2 episodes but I watched the main one and the first 2 installments. I really enjoyed it my only question was where was McKayla Maroney I know she gave a interview to Gymcastic and didn't say the nicest. things about Martha & company as well as her coaches I wonder if that was why.

Update. I watched her show
Have you ever really liked a family and at the same time disliked them completely?
Like you could tell the family was sweet and close but also could tell that they're opportunistic leeches

This is exactly how I feel about them. I'd feel uncomfortable being one of her siblings and doing this show full time

USA Gymnastics | World, Olympic champions headline field for Secret U.S. Classic
List of athletes competing at the Secret Classic on June 4th! No Maggie Nichols or Bailie Key. I was really hoping Bailie would be there because not competing all year probably isn't helping her chances of making it to Rio.

No Norah Flatley either. Was really pulling for both Norah and Bailie and they've both missed the whole year :(

It's a big weekend for artistic gymnastics with Secret Classics going on in the U.S. and European Championships going on in Switzerland. The men and women compete on different weeks at Euros, with the men done competing last week, here are the results:
The Senior Russia MAG proved that they have the capability to do well, they scored a total of 271.378... which, by the way, would have gotten them first at the 2015 World Championships. Hopefully they build on this momentum as they head towards Rio. Team GB faired well considering the absence of Max Whitlock. There are arguments that suggest that had Max attended, team GB would have won. Unfortunately, team GB just doesn't have D scores to match Russia, Russia had a huge cushion (as do teams like China and Japan do during Worlds and Olympics) which their E scores could fall on.
Everyone's favourite, Marian Drăgulescu, earned himself two silvers. Although his floor routine was very un-him, it was basically a twistathlon except for his dismount (which, by the way, is very impressive for a last pass). Louis Smith along with 4 other pommel horse finalist fell off the apparatus... so it was pretty simple what you had to do to win, the only 3 that stayed on got 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Nikita Nagornyy's floor routine was honestly one of the most beautiful things this competition:
It's unfortunate Denis Ablyazin has been struggling on floor this year, not sure if he'll be able to clean up by Rio. David Belyavskiy won the Longines Award for Elegance as well as leaving Bern as the most decorated MAG with 2 golds, a silver and a bronze... took him long enough to really showcase his potential after all these years of struggle during finals.
The women's events begin on June 1st, with Junior qualifications (which also serve as team finals) on day 1, followed by Senior qualifications on day 2. Just a reminder, there is only team and event finals for Seniors, no AA (they alternate every year or something, it's confusing). Expect to see favourites such as the Wevers sisters, Downie sisters, Mustafina, Afanasyeva, Ponor, Fragapane, Steingruber and many more.
For those of you who are interested, there is a free live broadcast by Eurovision for Senior team and event finals:
Eurovision Sports Live
There is no geo block, so regardless of where you are in the world you should be able to watch it live... and the best part? No commentary. The team finals begin on Saturday at 10:50AM EDT.

Gutted for Louis just slipping off the pommel!
Also want to get in there that the GB Juniors won their fifth successive team title! And Nile Wilson won gold on hbars which is a first for us.
There were a couple of frustrating 4th place results for us in event finals but apart from Louis' fall GB went clean on everything (I think)
So impressed with Russia, especially what they put out on floor and vault. If Max had been there I think our scores would have been much closer to them but still not enough to beat them.
Looking forwards to the women's turn this week!

Love Kocians bars! So pretty. Laurie's choreo is so powerful and entertaining. I hope she's better from whatever injury she had?
Skinner and Raismans beams are so skill after random skill w/ no artistry - impressive yes, but not very pretty to watch :/. I guess that move where they lay down on the beam and stick their hand out counts as some kind of "dance requirement"? - so many of them seem to throw it in randomly like they have to do it.
