I did gymnastics in university plus I was a backspot, that meant the one girl went up in the air plus I was the one behind her, i grabbed her ankles plus held her steady.
A sizable part of the back spot was catching her as she came down from mounts, whether it was intentional or accidental.
It was nerve wracking however a unbelievable position on the team! Most of the time my catches were smooth, simple plus great. There was one mount that was constantly a problem. My top girl wasn’t truly unbelievable at twisting in the air… She liked to twist halfway plus then reach to grab me. I caused my head to snap back every time. My buddy and I did it over plus over again. She never got it. After I graduated university I started having neck complications from it. I wore a brace, got cracked by a chiropractor, plus stretched it officially. The pain was horrible though. I finally researched plus realized that medical cannabis might be my only saving grace. I did all the steps to be a legal weed patient. I got the medical cannabis card plus now I vape a cannabis oil in the day plus before bed. This helps my neck no longer become stiff plus sore. I feel a lot better, then cBD is unbelievable for reducing inflammation plus calming the muscles. My hope is to someday not require smoking cannabis oil, then for right now I am just blissful that my neck isn’t giving me a constant source of pain.
