Thanks for the questions! If there's anything I missed let me know. Training update coming in a few days!
Can’t wait for the next update! ❤️
can't wait!
Makayla you rubbed off oN Jonas, he is yawning in the video. One 💘
Are you still in contact with Maggie Nichols? Watching Athlete A was heartbreaking. My prayer is that everyone gets mental care they need!!!!!! One 💘
I’m twisting too early on my full-ins which is stopping me from upgrading it is there anything that I can do to fix it?
You'd kick yourself every day for the rest of your life if you hadn't gone for another Olympic run. You're doing the right thing honoring your inner self.
I misread that and thought you were telling her she should kick herself. lol.
exactly
Can’t believe it took me 2 months to edit this haha whoops but enjoy everyone
You’re busy so we understand 😁
Hey, at least you got it done eventually
Thanks so much, your both amazing!! Xx
Always killin it Jonas! Thank you 😊
I don't blame you lol
Did Jonas really just say he was a better athlete and than a world champion and Olympic alternate.... bruh.
he's crazy
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial true, girl
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial LMAOOO
Yeah, I'm gonna need him to expand on this and then rethink. Lol! Gymnasts at her level are in ridiculous shape!
just ask him to do rope climbing with only his arms and see if he can do it....lol...
gymnasts are trained to do that since they are little.
You can never get time alone back. Kids will happen. Seriously, TAKE TIME FOR yourself. You will never be alone if you have kids. NO traveling to even the bathroom alone. HEY MYKAYLA, No sleeping til 10 AM if you have kids too early. In fact, you will NEVER--SLEEEP---AGAIN--- :)
Definitely you all are so young and 4-5 kids is SOOO much work. Mykayla you said you never knew how hard it would be training for the olympics. Please trust me when I say having kids is harder there is literally no down time to rest sleep eat shop or even go to the bathroom. Especially if you have more than 2 kids. I have 3 and wanted 4 and I’m a determined and strong person but 3 is more than enough. So much work. You all are young and free enjoy it for a while!!!
hahaha Jonas loves this comment. Thank you though ☺️
The smiling face at the end 😂
“Because she’s half wild” lol idk why that made me laugh so hard they’re adorable
i think mykayla might just adopt a kid behind jonas back one day 😂😂
Everyone knows that a gymnast will always be the better athlete, duh!
he should know!!
Facts
@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial lol
Yup
Cannot wait to see you compete!! Ive been watching you since freshman year of Utah and amazing!
Be grateful for the hard work you do in the gym, history will remember you for it.
Keep up the good work! Hope and pray for the best at Olympic trial. Keep believing!
For the record, I love how you just casually drop "Simone and I" like she isn't the greatest female gymnast to walk the face of the Earth. Just shows how down to Earth the both of you are and the friendship you two have
What a beautiful couple! And I love how you both embrace spiritual principles in your real lives and aren't afraid to talk about it. Wishing you both success for an obviously bright future. Cheering you on, MyKayla, for a GOLD finish on all levels!!! Much LOVE.
I started really paying attention to you 3 yrs ago, and am really impressed. You aren't flashy, but hon, you have mad skills!
thank u I try!!
I just adore you both. God bless you and Melo. Stay the course, stay true, cause you’ve got the Olympics. I keep praying and hoping for your success. Honestly, you are strong and keep that awesome confidence.
I LOVE your Q & A videos !! Prayers that you stay healthy and healed for the Olympics 🤗
LOVED the Q&A! 💖
yay I'm so happy you answered all this!!
Hi Mkayla, I'm 62 and live in Israel and I love gymnastics..... still - I can still do a cartwheel and roundoff (although it hurts my knees to land) and I can still do a splitz. Anyway, I love your videos and I look forward to cheering you on in the Olympics! Stay positive and speak in the positive. Not if you make it, but when you make it. I wish you and Jonas well. My husband and I have been married for 44 years. We love it.
The fact that you reply to all comments is AMAZING. I actually coached 2 of your & Jonas family members here in Utah, they are adorable! (I will keep their names private for their safety of course). Now I watch your videos and love to see your progress and amazing skills! Gymnastics & coaching is everything to me. Thank you for sharing so much of your journey! Also a huge fan of the Red Rocks ❤️
Can’t wait to see you at Olympic Trials! Really hoping you make the team! Either way though, following your journey has been so inspirational and you should be so proud of all the things you have achieved!
I grew up in Ogden, Utah, till I was 22 and got married and moved to a city northwest of Phoenix. I have now lived here for 13 years and I do not miss the cold winters and love raising my kids here! Visiting the snow (my family is all still in Utah) in my opinion is so much more fun than living in it! I’m with ya girl!
YOU MADE IT!
Loved this chat sesh, guys! ❣️ MyK, I lit up inside when you mentioned you writing a book in the future. Could see that desire & excitement in your eyes, etc.... I believe once you start your writing flow, it’s just gonna pour “write” outta ya. HeHee! So yea, my point is, TOTALLY DO THE WRITING THING! 🤗💁🏻♀️🌷
Clicked nearly as fast as Mykayla doing a double-double:)
Yes!! The video we all have been waiting for!!!! We love you McKayla, even if you don’t make the team this year. We will all cry with you! But don’t worry you’ll make it, I believe in you!!!!😘
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
You are awesome and fantastic and amazing
From a fellow Sports Journalism alum, it’s so cool to hear that that is a passion of yours! I’ve been binging some of your vids lately and have been awed by your passion for your craft. Big fan💪
Your videos are so relaxing and fun to watch! I recently became a coach at my old gym and hope to inspire them to love gymnastics as much as you do! :)
His hair looks sooo good!
Love your videos 💜 I'm rooting for you! X
❤️
Oh please write a book!! I’ve loved watching your journey I’d love to see the behind the scenes look!! ❤️
Jonas, I just heard you say you enjoy hiking. If you guys ever go to Hawaii maybe look into Kauai--the hiking on the Napali Coast is amazing!
I love your sweater Mykayla. You guys are awesome together. Both of you style your hair fantastically. I think you could do your own athletic line.
YESSS! I’d love a leotard line from you that would be awesome! ❤️
Yes we need a merch line !!
Yessss!!! I want a boooooook! I want all the books! Lol. No, but really, im a manager of a book store so I would 100% push your book and get it into the hands of all the customers. Any non -fiction books written by gymnasts or about gymnasts, I read them and then make sure they get put front and center when they are released.
I can’t wait seeing mini versions of myKayla
Oh man, me too!! 😁
I love you and Jonas so much! I love watching your videos, and I would love to see more vlogs of you and Jonas. (I know you're super busy though, but maybe after the olympics?) Also, will you keep making videos after you are done with your gymnastics career?
Omg Yes! Please come and live in Australia. We would love to have you 🤩
I'm from Australia, would definitely buy your book. All my best for the Olympics!
Enjoy life and travel for minimum 2 years after gymnastics. You two have not had any down time. Trust me. Mom of 2 gymnasts😄 Have your foot surgery as well.
Yes yes a book! I would ❤️
I grew up in Bermuda, it’s the greatest place on the planet hahaha good choice ;) You guys need to take a trip there!
glad to hear!! yes I'd love to vacay there after I'm done with gym
YES! PLEASE write a book! I would definitely read it!
Loved you talking about your faith!!! You guys are awesome :)
🤮
Nice video, it was really pleasant to watch, thanks for posting :)
When Jonas was describing how many clothes MyKayla has her face was just like, 'mmhm and your point is?" lol it was so funny!
Love the q&a! I also appreciate your honesty about being an alternate. Of course you were disappointed! You worked your whole life for that moment (and got 4th at trials) and were "passed over." I'll be honest, I didn't love your gymnastics in 2016 but watching these videos and seeing your growth (with increased difficulty and improved form) has converted me. I'm rooting for you!
Edit: I also appreciate hearing you talk about your religious beliefs. It's nice that you can talk about how faith is important to you and but not in a preachy way . (I'm Jewish lol).
I would definitely read your book if you decide to write one. You always look so amazing. What beauty products & self tanner do you use? Thank you for sharing your journey on your road to Tokyo. I'm praying and rooting for you. Keep up the great work & I can't wait to watch you in Tokyo!!
Yes to the book! I would love to hear more about your experience with gymnastics after watching all of your incredible work here. Also...how’s the shaposh, church, and triple double coming along? Any chance we will see them at nationals or trials?
Mykayla, write a tell all book! It would be amazing.
14:20 Literally mixing a pint of mint choc chip in the blender with some ice and sweet cream to make a milkshake as they say this.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Girl get that book out ❤️✨🦄
Nice to see more videos with you both!
Love seeing Melo more too!
Jonas you do great videos, no worries.
Lovely couple.
Super sweet.
Patient.
I'D SOON BUY YOUR MERCH AND BOOK. PLZ DO IT. YOUR SUCH A LEGEND EVEN IF YOU DON'T MAKE THE TEAM. LOVE YOU GUYSSSS
I think its super cute how humble your answer was about being stared at. Of course people are looking at you, you are absolutely gorgeous.
OMGOODNESS 😮😍 I could so see you broadcasting!!... and I said you should have your own leotard line, you have beautiful taste!...👌❤❤
Myk is definitely the better athlete!!! 🥰
retweet!
This is gonna have some tea being spilled I can already tell
you know it!
Jonas has a good point about traveling a little bit before kids. You’ve probably traveled more because of gymnastics though.
Ps- I love Animal Crossing
Great I typed out a comment and accidentally clicked cancel. lol. Was just saying I've always been unsure if I'd like animal crossing or pokemon games and am always tempted to try them, but never decide.
@@dunktheball I like AC, you can get really creative with it
I’d love a book!!! & a movie!!!! 💕
Would definitely love to read your book!
MyKayla is literally a world class athlete. How is it even comparable?? haha he tried though!
We are routing for you skinner!!!!
Love you and good luck 🍀 you got this!!! 💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️
i would 100% read your book i need it now!!
Can't wait for your book & your clothing line/athletic wear (multipurpose tights/yoga/running type pants hopefully!)...
Also I would love to buy and read your book!!!
Would love a video explaining the process of building a routine from scratch, how long it takes, etc
I would love to read your book! 😊
I would buy your book in a heart beat if you make one
❤️
Same!
You NEED to write a book especially after your olympic run this year. You are the epitome of don’t give up and the opportunities will find you. I would 200% read. 😫🤍
I would definitely read your book!
I do need a book from you.... it would be amazing:)
My first job was at DQ and I absolutely LOVE mint chocolate chip! 🙌
Jonas, look into the chili cube! It's a pad that goes under your side of the bed (or you can get a split one for each side) and it runs cool water under you so you stay cool! If you got the split one for each side, then it can also heat the water so Mykayla can stay warm, while the cool water on your side keeps you cool. It's literally the best invention. Well, that and separate blankets 😂. They are both must haves.
A leo lineeeee 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Finally some REALNESS. I love them
OMG PLEASE MAKE AN ATHLETIC/LEO LINE ahahaha i would buy everythinggg ps you're my favorite gymnast mykayla
I really want to!!! Stay tuned ☺️
Omg I'm from Australia, it's beautiful! Please come here 😁😍!!!
I would love to read your book MyKayla
Love this
YES TO WRITING A BOOK MYK💕💕💕💕💕💕📚📚📚📚📚
As far as the merch line, I'd LOVE to wear something that shows my support for Myk. Something like "Team Myk" or "Go Myk! 2021 Tokyo." I'd also totally wear something that plays on the fact that Myk naps a lot and yawns and is tired. Stuff like that. "World's greatest napper" or "tired 24/7"
Yessss I would totally buyyyyyyyy I thought of a name Myksleos 😂
Does Mykayla have a nutritionist? I get she’ll definitely be exhausted just based on how much she’s training, but based on some of the clips we’ve seen just hope she’s prioritizing that to energize her well through these last few months!
Jonas is pretty much my nutritionist haha. I've been eating a lot better lately! I talk about that stuff mostly on Instagram
That’s a good question !
Mykayla looks (amazing of course), but completely out of energy, tired & exhausted. 🥺
cannot wait to see her at the Olympics, but she needs a break! Mentally & physically.
after the Olympics, take a few years off & travel girl, eat whatever you want, sleep how long you want, lay on a beach, etc.. & write your book during that time! You deserve it! Both you & Jonas!
"How crazy Marta was"
HAHAHAHA DYING
Please write a book, Mykayla! I’d love to read it. Also, I think you’d be great as a stylist or fashion blogger (and a leo line could launch that)! PS It looked like Jonas needed the yawn meter for this video-or maybe he was just trying to compete with you again! Lol
Paris is amazing! Went in 2019 and want to go back.
A book would be awesome ❤️❤️
MyKayla, I would love you to make the team! You deserve it. You might peak at the most optimal time. Just let the positive energy flow. And believe in yourself, too! PS. Write the book. I‘d buy it.
We needed a Jonas yawn count for this one lol
There was a small one at about 9:47
Awesome video
I have a question for mykayla my daughter is in gymnastics and she just started and she hasn’t done since she was 3 year old so she has a lot to catch up on but I was wondering if you had any suggestions that could help ?
I’m really curious to know what’ll happen to the UA-cam channel after the Olympics 🤔
Write a book with ALL the tea.
u know it
will you perform the double with triple on the ground?
Yes please write a book!
Love you guys
