A day in the life of Mykayla Skinner

[@OnMyOwn__4]

I like how this is an honest video, and not that kind of videos that are extremely edited, loved it

[@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial]

❤️❤️❤️

[@OnMyOwn__4]

@@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficialOMG U answered me, so I love your gymnastics, and I hope u will be on the US 2020 Olympic team. With this, I want ask, will u put a new skill on some apparatus👀👀???

[@olgafre]

Yes, that's great!!

[@freddycooks]

I agree

[@potato_wolf99]

Yes me too

[@Strawberryxcookie]

I love the fact that she does not go to gym until later in the day. You hear all the time about athletes going in at 6am everyday and I am just like dang give me an 11 o'clock practice any day. I love my sleep lol

[@mingming9604]

that's a perk of no longer being done with high school and no longer being home schooled and being able to defer the senior year of college. You can concentrate on training and at the same time not having to be up at 7 am and go beyond 7pm. Also the older gymnasts trains less hours but they train smarter. And just like Aly, her and Simone are getting more naps nowaday then when they were in their teens!...

[@LoyaFrostwind]

Yes, yes!

[@ItsSeanzie]

I honestly love how real this video is. No antics or overexaggeration, it’s 100% genuine, and I feel like it makes it feel 1) more like a documentary and 2) easier to connect. This is awesome, keep it up, Mykayla! Hope to see you in Tokyo this summer! Also the FORM on the Amanar!

[@chiknlittle]

I adore this channel already. Super thankful to have someone documenting the journey in its rawness, not just the end result.

[@aarulf]

I've been wanting someone to do this for so long. So when she said she was going to be making a KZbin channel, I'm like hell yes

[@chiknlittle]

Alex Arulf for real!

[@QueenScarletStarlet]

Jake Dalton did a road to RIO in 2016 - it was insightful. i loved learning about everything he was eating while training

[@madieabernathy7302]

she looks and sounds so much like shawn johnson

[@shreyabanerjee9944]

Madeline Grace that’s exactly what I was thinking at first I was like is this Shawn and Andrew

[@Rtytanicj]

Madeline Grace I thought this when I saw her and her man. I’m like it’s the next Shawn Johnson east channel!! Looooove it!!!! 💜

[@alyssatony3701]

i was thinking that too!!!

[@darkexcalibur87]

Their husbands look similar too lol

[@shepherd941]

Eh. I can sorta see that

[@aarulf]

"I really like naps. Me and Simone can tell you that one." Haha. Aly is probably like told you so

[@mette8416]

haha

[@alisak3401]

I am so surprised how late you get up - I always thought gymnasts would be at training around 7 AM😃 It‘s so nice to get an idea about a normal day for you! Also what does Jonas do? Does he just hang out with you, does he work, does he study...?

[@mingming9604]

The advantage of no longer being in high school and not also taking college class right now :) .. The precollege gymnasts have to deal with also doing high school work and home schooling in between morning and afternoon practice. Also they have to do homework after practice in afternoon, etc. Btw, prop to Myk for maintaining great GPA in college while keeping up with her practice!

[@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial]

Yep I need my sleep haha. It works out cause practice starts later anyways. Jonas travels for work once or twice a month and works from home the rest so it's pretty flexible.

[@kinglard2559]

Ming Ming i

[@LoyaFrostwind]

The benefits of being an independent adult gymnast. You can get up whenever you want really. You don't have to wake up at the buttcrack of dawn, unless you want to, of course.

[@funtimeswithnariman8303]

BRUH me I start at 7:10PM YES PM XD

[@sweetbug]

Congrats on making the olympic team and for winning the silver! We are so proud of you!

[@KinsleeMcBride12]

You and Simone are always in my head telling me to keep going!

[@Montrosesister12]

Mckayla you are one of my absolute favorites because you have fun with your gymnastics. Even if you're not having fun you make it look like you're having fun

[@satanette8562]

Wow this is so interesting to watch! I’m not a gymnast but just love watching dedicated people train for their sports it’s so inspiring x

[@frankdawson2572]

Amanar looks great!!! So awesome to see some of the work that goes into it! I'm rooting for ya on your journey to Tokyo!

[@ragansmithgymnastics7782]

Really nice form on that Amanar!

[@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial]

thank you!! I've been working on it haha

[@mila9162]

I used to be a gymnast, and watching her do gymnastics just made my muscles twitch and instinctively react as if I was doing the tricks myself

[@zeafonso9416]

I am so HAPPY to see your youtube videos!!! Great to know your daily routines, great to meet your husband and how supportive he is! LOVE how the videos are real, no major editing... I am cheering for you for Tokyo 2020! Keep them coming!!! Get the sponsors now that you have your youtube chanel! (:)

[@9N6-s2i]

This video was so good, I love how raw and honest it was. It’s so nice that you’re sharing your life with us. I’m so inspired. Can’t wait for part 2. Thank you Myk and Jonas!

[@mckendraray4341]

Crossing my fingers for you that you make that 2020 team. ❤️ You've been working long and hard and you deserve it.

[@chrisefstratiou9518]

Great job providing an inside look at your life and training! Hope to see you in Tokyo!

[@TheBLaBLa2299]

Much love from Germany!!! Big inspiration that you came back for the Olympics, hope that you reach your goals and stay injury-free. I'm a gymnastics trainer and today I will show my girls your discipline :D Love you!!!

[@dumbdizzyblond318]

I’ve never been so excited for a KZbin channel !!!!! This is amazing I’m so happy you are going for it !!

[@rotciv2008]

Supporting you from Mexico 🇲🇽, Go Mykayla, you CAN make that olympic team!!!

[@megantjelle9062]

I am rooting for you so hard girl! Your determination and perseverance is so inspiring

[@freeyourmind16]

I’d love to see a video about what your favorite workout clothes are/what’s in your gym bag!

[@sylviesalter8852]

I Love This! How did it feel when they told you that you were going to do a vault in Tokyo

[@whitajeman]

I'm so happy you started this channel Myk! I've followed your career since you were at DLG (I used to coach there when I was in college at ASU) and you are such a great person and athlete! I'll be spreading the word for people to follow along!

[@delinafikru6825]

Girl you are really excellent and dedicated. Keep up the good work. Don't let your nap time to be taken

[@gracepickering7281]

Hi Mykayla! I’m really curious how you pay for all your training and coaching now that you’re an adult? I’ve always wondered how that works for athletes like gymnasts who don’t have contracts with a team

[@dancingforever63]

Grace Pickering would love to learn about this!!

[@lestweforget3430]

Great question! I've often wondered how that works too? Do you get help paying for your coaching and living accommodations? How does your country support it's athletes? I Know how you aren't allowed to make any money from sponsorship, if you want to compete in college. So, if you don't mind... How do you guys do it?

[@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial]

Great question! I get funding from USAG each month since I made the Worlds team. It covers the basics

[@mcsmaria28]

MyKayla Skinner if you feel comfortable answering this, how do you and Jonas cover non-gym expenses? Rent, food, utilities, etc?

[@Maryannedk]

What does it mean not having a gym behind? Sorry but I’m not American. What’s the difference between her and, for example Morgan Hurd? I mean I have always thought that gymnast don’t have to pay anything and the usag pay for everything , si for “gym” you mean something like WOGA? If I get it now she is “alone” so she isn’t part of a team ... sorry but it’s really hard ahaha

[@dynah9245]

I have been such a huge fan of you for a long time now and i am so shocked i have never found your channel! Hopefully the 2020 Olympics don't get cancelled or i will DIE ahhh. Love you!

[@GymnasticTips]

Great video. Looking forward to part two!

[@MariaMartinez-rh6hh]

I love how down to earth your videos are.

[@graciesgymnastics4947]

I literally love everything about this video! I've been waiting for a channel like Nile Wilson's for a while, so now we get to see how you train and your gym assignments is the coolest thing everrrrrrr xxxx

[@olgafre]

And how honest and without magic editions it's. Very genuine!

[@sydbennett5226]

It’s so cool to see the gym and all the coaches on your video! It’s so cool💓

[@cocoadollyxoxo]

That little nap in the car is a whole mood 😂😍

[@aashnasingh5466]

I would love to see you do a video that is kind of like a tutorial of you showing how to do a front handspring and back handspring

[@tynao2029]

Nesquik powder and organic whole milk is one of my favorite treats, it's good for your bones and gives you a good insulin spike pre or post workout. Add ice, peanut butter and bananas in a blender for the best simple shake

[@katlyngibson3724]

They remind me so much of Shawn and Andrew East

[@mrparts]

I like how it shows that putting together any routine at this level of competition is extremely hard physically and mentally...

[@kawaiikoalas438]

can we just talk about how amazing and honest this is :D new fan!!!!!!!!! ur soo pretty too

[@KatieMcDonnell]

Ahhh this was so motivating to watch. I’m trying to get back into training after some time off for work and this seriously motivated me to really go for it! Thanks! ☺️

[@brutejonny]

Loved this so much - can't wait for part 2! Your form is looking the best I've seen it. This is gonna be your year ❤️💙

[@malloryvaladez8338]

Y’all remind me of Shawn johnson & Andrew east

[@Rtytanicj]

Mallory Valadez I thought the exact same thing!!!!

[@MariahCoco]

Except they aren't fake they seem way more real lol

[@lexi1222100]

Mallory Valadez sameee

[@jillsains1917]

Mariah Coco I wouldn’t say they’re fake in how they are as people but their videos are very scripted, I wish they would have more day to day life content instead of making it like ads

[@lexi1222100]

jill agreed

[@i.am.heather]

Love this! Can’t wait to show this to my daughter 💕 ALSO.... pleeeease show a grip tutorial bc she has *the* hardest time with hers. You’re such an inspiration! Keep up the training - it will pay off!

[@tonismarr6324]

i'm rooting for you from south texas - tokyo 2020! always wished that i could have done gymnastics, but i was raised as a musician playing trumpet. much respect to your dedication and love for the sport!

[@2222bearbear]

Thank you for showing that grown adult women are gymnasts too ❤️❤️❤️ keep up the great work mykayla!

[@sadietrent804]

Love it! Thanks for keeping us updated! Are you keeping your Ruslana floor music, please say you are, that would keep her super happy. You and Jordyn Weiber are the only 2 American gymnasts to know who she is and im over the moon

[@amyperkins9218]

I am so glad you started a KZbin channel!!!!

[@rosamackenzie2368]

[@charasmr924]

This was such a great video! I love how honest it was, it’s refreshing to see someone be honest about the good and the rough parts! The form on your Amanar is looking really good too! Keep I’m the good work, I’m rooting for you to make the team! 💕

[@olgafre]

What an amazing surprise to discover this channel, I got really angry at the Olympics because we didn't see her performing, my fav US gymnast since 2014.

[@danawatkins]

So excited to follow your journey. We’re pulling for you!

[@andreasolinas111]

We root for you myk! Love from Italy ❤️

[@MyKaylaSkinnerOfficial]

I am planning on posting videos once a week! :)

[@mayatang6521]

Yay! I eagerly await next weeks video!

[@JustKeepSinging24]

She wont, cus it was cancelled due to the Corona Virus, plus she'll be just an alternate like she always tends to be

[@mayatang6521]

KickRocks131 Have a little faith. If you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all. Try not to bring others down.

[@ButtercupFarmGirl]

I'm so happy that you started a KZbin channel!! I have a KZbin channel too and I'm in Arizona too. I have a super healthy chocolate milkshake that you would love! You put in a blender some milk, cocoa powder, real maple syrup (not fake pancake syrup), a frozen banana and some ice cubes. It's really good!

[@katedietz3371]

OMG!!! I LOVE your channel! You are such an inspiration!

[@thebatman3142]

Jonas over here cooking like a pro chef!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@anapatriciaortiz1448]

Yes !! Can’t wait to see your journey for Tokio

[@9cloudrachel207]

Could you do a video on warm up stretching? Or like ways to build and prep for skills at home ?

[@cmills53]

Love watching you - awesome!

[@freddycooks]

Okay Jonas got me when he said "that's why they need this KZbin thing to blowup" I know he was somewhat joking about McKayla spending all their money, but I also know he is being honest about KZbin I definitely know the struggle is real with KZbin. I'm subbing just for that! Good luck on your channel. You''ll get there.

[@kaurilynn1639]

Freddy Cooks International SoulFood I literally did the same thing when he said that then I subscribed hahah

[@Robertjames525]

@Nunovurbznzsodontask 👉🖕💩🚽

[@milli2315]

image being able to just name drop simone like that

[@shepherd941]

Ya it’s like that’d be pretty cool.

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

Great vlog! Always been a big fan of MyKayla, so happy to see more about her journey. Thanks for sharing, MyKayla & Jonas! 😁👍

Ur such a good gymnasts I use to do gymnastics for about 7and half years and I always looked up to u and I decided to quit and do other sports

[@jennyvezina4551]

Love the honest insight to your daily life, great video!!!!

[@KristinaMorrison]

I’m really excited about this channel, and seeing your journey. Subscribed as soon as I saw it pop up on my recommended.

[@JustKeepSinging24]

LOL...

[@joebaws4117]

I’m a dude but I enjoy watching your style of training and you make it so fun, very positive vibes 👍

[@ItsNoelMulkey]

LOVED THIS!!! so motivational. More of these 😊🙌🏼

[@tshimangadzomavhungu3563]

Just woke up now it's like 7:15am in SA and first thing I saw your notification, I've been waiting for it

[@jasonvietta]

The slow motion/fast motion convo had me dead

[@LNwmnn]

dont you sweat off all the foundation during practice?:O

[@LiveLaughLove8489]

And it would clog pores. I never workout with foundation. If i wear makeup it’s some waterproof mascara and maybe a touch of line with some chapstick and facial moisturizer.

[@radicalmermaid7600]

maybe she’s trying to get used to the feel of it since she has to wear some for the olympics

[@kimsandberg5201]

My sisters and I always wonder how you get your hair to stay put during meets! All of the Red Rocks hair looks awesome despite everything that you do during the meet. What are your tricks and what do you use? I’d love to make my hair stay out when I run! ❤️🙌🏻

[@daneltheron4699]

I love this! Next time, can you please show me how you do your hair for training?💗

[@luna-cz2ll]

Nice video ! You’re doing amazing! Rooting for you ~

[@susandilaudo9534]

God this makes me miss living in Phoenix. Get that Amanar! Woohooooo. I am super impressed with her bars. KJC would love her handstands!! So stinking proud of her!

I like your channel Myk! Keep up the good work!

[@darkexcalibur87]

This has motivated me to get off the couch. But I'll do it tomorrow. 😁

[@joycesignorella3330]

You have the most beautiful natural skin. I understand having to wear base for competitions , etc. You honestly don’t need it in everyday life. Your skin glows! I’m a mom of identical twin girls, adults, I’m always saying this!

[@liliansmeenge3297]

I really like your videos, not too much editing and a nice speed. Question: do you know if the other elites train as much as you do? Or is it often more/less. Best wishes from the Netherlands!

[@Irina_languages]

Love it so much. The husband is cooking while the wife is doing make up:)

[@KandeShack]

Love the height you’re getting on your vaults!

[@heatherjay843]

Omg triple ex training is here in Chandler! I didn't realize you lived in Gilbert. Way cool

[@JedWunderli]

I love that bar routine. Will you do that one when you are back to competing at the U?
