These 3 are fabulous!!! WTG Jessica! excellent interview/episode. one of my faves ever! edit--Their humility is so refreshing. Their faces when they looked at each other realizing,"wow! all 3 of us coached world champions!" love this and their support for each other--Cleo talking about her athletes being great communicators and they all reminded her that she fostered that environment. humility and grace from all 3. love them
Sarah is a smart coach to me and 100% outsmarts the gymternet. Shilese was the first to ditch the L-hop 1/1, while the rest + insane domestic judges are still embracing those self D&E-destroying elements when they compete at bigger international meets. No disappointment in this interview.
Great interview, I loved it, it was so entertaining and at the same time packed with tons of gymnastics knowledge and experience ! Special thanks to the coaches for being available for this video.
WOW. This was so awesome. I am going to watch this again from beginning to end again. Two things that really resonated with me as a former gymnast (and it was a long time ago) was the discussion about a coach sitting down- I was laughing so hard- no one EVER sat down in my gym (this has been a part of my working life to this day- it has been a thing for me- I am a land survey party chief- and you better be on your feet). I remember a new transfer gymnast taking a seat in the middle of workout and it was like time stood still for the rest of us She never did that again!🤣 Also, my gym was totally unusual in that we all spotted each other. (speaking to Jessica and spotting) What a gift! Our coach was an amazing spotter (I am talking about a coach that had Olympians in the gym) but we learned to spot each other on the more secure skills. We would go to meets and set each others bars and stand there for dismounts. It was SO different from other teams! There was one meet where coaches were pulled away for some reason in warm ups amd we just carried on without issue because we were so adept at spotting each other. That was an excellent way to build confidence for both the gymnasts performing skills and those gymnasts that would engage in coaching in the future. We also had to move mats and equipment in the gym regularly. We really had very few injuries in my gym. Once coach wasn't spotting and a teammate was it meant you HAD it! Another different thing is that we all wore t-shirts in training - specifically for spotting. I imagine that has changed with my coach over the years. I have moved SO much furniture in my life with BOSS skills with my 5'5" 115 lb. body from that training! This interview was GOLDEN. Thank you all!
The way they talked about Qiu's coach in the video was so rude, they didn't even figure out who they are. Qiu comes on in the second half, while Huang and Jones play in the first half. And guess what? It was actually Huang's coach not Qiu's! This could easily lead to misunderstandings and rumors. This incident shows how there's been long-term discrimination against the Chinese team; they can't even tell the difference between Chinese athletes and their coaches, always China1, China2, China3.
I absolutely loved this episode. Hope you can facilitate more discussions like this. It’s good to hear from the coaches And I am officially a Sarah fan!
This was an amazing interview or even discussion panel might be a better thing to call it. I love Sarah. I'm also a rule follower who will be quick to say the rules are stupid but I'll follow them. I try to go into things having an understanding that there is a reason for something even if I don't know what the reason is. I love the relationship that all three of them have with one another. I learned some things that surprised me. I had wondered how they all make it through the really quick warm-ups before each event. To realize that not all of the athletes and coaches know how to do it before big assignments is very interesting. And the fact that they use public transportation when they're on international assignments also astounds me. I had assumed that team USA would rent a shuttle so they can create your own schedule.
@@jennyz9429 I tried both 2022 and 2023 but I don't see anything suspicious. There are cinese gymnasts that wet the bar but only in the second warm up and I did not see the coach
@@jennyz9429 I tried Worlds UB Finals for both 2022 and 2023 and I don't see anything weird happening. The chinese gymnasts do have a larger bottle but they warm up in the second part as they should.
@@waira3523 There's no sabotage because they neglected the fact that there was another Chinese athlete (Huang) competing in the 1st half as well and mistook her coach for Qiu's coach. Qiu and her coach didn't show up in till the 2nd half's warm-up time.
You guys mistook another coach for Qiu Qiyuan's coach. There was another Chinese athlete , Huang Zhuofan, who competed in the 1st half and it made sense her coach was there instead of Qiu's. You owed Qiu's coach an apology :)
@@Bxyxox Oh did you also mix up Lu Le (Huang's coach) and Liu (Qiu's coach) as well? If you watched the game, Huang and her coach Lu Le and her teammate Wu Ran were preparing the bars for her, in same warm-up session as Jones since she also competed in the 1st half. They had every right to be there. By neglecting Huang Zhuofan and mistook Lu for Liu, the two coaches just successfully misled the audiences and offended 2 athletes and 2 coaches at the same time. This is annoying.
@@Yyyyyyxxxxx nope I didn’t mix it up - because when I watched they did not douse the bars as per said in the video, nor do we see Sarah upset in the background when Huang is warming up. So obviously the incident she was talking about was not shown in the actual recording of the championships. Instead of jumping to racism use your mind and think.
@@Bxyxox Oh then you should watch the video again as she said 'in the bar finals', 'they warmed up in the first half and the 2nd half, Shilese was in the first half', 'the Chinese coach', he's athlete in not in the first half'. So obviously she's talking about the warm-up and she totally forgot there was another Chinese athlete.
@@Yyyyyyxxxxx and Huang was in the first half and the coach specifically mentioned the athlete she was talking about was in the 2nd half - who was the Chinese athlete in the second half - that’s right it was Qiu. Please don’t be obtuse.
WTH? They had the team at worlds taking a city bus to the arena? You have Simone Freaking Biles on your team. Rent a van with security for crap’s sake! Fire the transportation coordinator.
@@charitybosua Meanwhile this people since THEN have had NOTHING but good things to say. Sorry PEOPLE CHANGE, as he told them about his mistakes. Move on!
This was amazing. One of the best interviews you've ever done!
Thank you!
Being here 27 seconds after this was uploaded really makes me rethink my priorities in life
Why does that sound like shade😂😂😂
Sounds like you've got your priorities just right 😅
Priorities sound pretty good to me! I've been checking multiple times per day waiting for it.
Exactly, you should have been here sooner. Get your act together!
BEST INTERVIEW EVER!! You should do a part 2 with them!!
Thank you... noted :)

Great interview Jessica. Really nice to hear these three coaches talk about a variety of issues. 👍
Thanks so much!

I wonder if you would ever be able to get an interview/discussion like this with the “Trident” as you referred to Baker, Memmel, And Sacramone-Quinn.
This would be great!

The tea about Qui Qiyuan’s coach is everything I didn’t know I needed. My eyes are PEELED for him come the Olympics in a couple months

What an incredible interview from three very articulate and passionate coaches. Thanks so much for facilitating this. I learned a LOT!!
This was the best interview! Love it!🥰. Great coaches!👍
This was an amazing interview. You let them talk. Learned so much about the coaching world of every level of gymnastics. Well done.
Thanks so much!

I brought my best friend to the Nationals in Fort Worth he was in awe!!!! We sat 4th row from beam and it was amazing
Best episode ever. The behind the scenes was perfect and how casual everyone was just chatting
Great interview! Thanks everyone!
One of my favourite Gymcastic in-depth interviews so far. So much knowledge, comraderie & respect on show 👏
This was a great interview with the coaches. Love the behind the scenes stories

Oh, I loved all of them but Sarah's response to rules struck me! I particularly loved "whale sounds with Cleo" for the club gymnerds....
This video is great .. I might be late to work😅 ...and I may work remotely😂..but Video=A+ 👍🏾👍🏾
Loved, Loved, Loved this video:)
THIS WAS AMAZING!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great conversation. Loved it 🎉
Can't find the video of the "sabotage" but really want to see it! Any idea on where to find it?
Probably a stream of the apparatus finals? Or maybe one of the broadcasts shows the warm up.

Avoid layovers at all costs!! I learned that one the hard way. I swear, I will never go to Denver ever again.

Annie who? The Vice President?
I don’t know but they loooove Annie
the hate jessica has towards valery is beyond belief. she looks pissed off when nobody could say nasty things as she wished
It's not hard to dislike him once you have a little understanding of what some of his athletes came forward about

Just gonna say it. I’d go on a date with this Owen character.
