Anaheim was my first major competition and it was great.

Alice Kinsella is back in the gym - 7 weeks after giving birth

She should step away from the wolf turns as I am getting Jakarta vibes!

 

[Angelika]

Alice has seen the success of Ruby and Abi at Worlds and wants some of that../ she'll be back on the team by Euros next year

She's a machine. A lot of people are barely functional 7 weeks after giving birth.
Jen Gad is also back training, according to her Instagram.

 

[Puffin]

7 weeks is hardcore. I wasn't even allowed to go swimming.....

 

[MaryClare]

I am very much one of those “pregnancy is not an illness” types. But when I saw videos of Aleksandra Trusova on the ice doing twisting jumps 4 weeks post partum, I felt it in my own abdomen.

 

[RedBirdie]

Pregnancy may not be an illness, but it sure as hell can make you so sick you actually lose weight (0/10, do not recommend). I did manage to get back on my skates at 10 weeks, but I was not back to 100% for 2.5 years. I did not know all the ways the body to could be torn and scarred.

 

[Hatsumomo]

A former coworker had hyperemesis gravardium so bad that it got to a point that the only things she could keep down were mashed potatoes and 7Up. Until she couldn't. I'm honestly surprised she didn't end up hospitalized.

 

[Aeris]

Doing a triple wolf on floor shortly after giving birth. What better evidence could you ask for about that skill line being overvalued.

 

[MaryClare]

Max Whitlock is training for LA

 

[RichardL]

It's all Stephen Nedoroscik's fault

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

That didn't last long.

But again, yet another example of how the sport has changed. He'll only be 35, that's not even particularly old for a pommel specialist.

 

[rlayt]

Great news, that.
