I just realised... after doing all this, when you do your "copy the next move" challenges, you're going to have the whole play book you can pull out!

[@JansmaIvy]

I love how Joanna’s *“WHOOHOO”* echo’s through the gym. It makes it sound like she is doing it *every time* !! Too funny.

[@Michigoose]

3 weeks from now, Friday night/Saturday morning... "Was it good for you?" If met with silence, play the sound! Play it! :D

My 17yr old daughter is doing something similar. She was formerly an elite level gymnast until 4 years ago but injury put her out and she stepped away. Now as she heads to University in October, results willing, she's back in training as her first choice uni has a good Gymnastics program. She's been surprised at how her body is remembering the skills and flexibility needed and as she's not wanting to compete, she's just enjoying achieving and gaining back the skills she learnt without all the pressure.

[@kristimcintyre8497]

As a self-proclaimed Olympics addict (with zero personal skills, I just love to watch others excel), I am appreciating this as a tutorial prior to the games this summer. Might it be possible for us to hear the difference in points value? I have really enjoyed all of the series from you, Joanna, Luke, and Nile!

[@hockerhelmut]

Pulling all these skills off, with all your injuries, and being THAT old. Truly admirable Ash!

[@keljells]

THAT old??? Way what hold up!!!

[@maddiebutton2329]

😂😂😂😂

[@soude85]

He’s only 31🥺

[@vagirl19]

In the gymnastics world with injuries it is somewhat “old”. They didn’t say HE is old, for the sport he is. Being THAT (the word used) old is not usually seen in elite gymnastics.

[@hysteria1979]

It's always great to see someone who was at the elite level in their chosen discipline going back over the fundamental building-blocks that took them to the top, and reminding themselves of the work they did to get where they are. The fact you're using it to work to skills you've never completed before is inspiring. I wish you joy of the journey!

[@HiKoality]

Yay Ash!! From a 36-year old ex-gymnast/current handstand addict near Leeds, AL, USA

[@wedamon]

I know it would be more work when editing, but it would be awesome to see the name of the skill onscreen as you complete it. Incredible challenge you’ve given yourself here, Ash! You are a beast 💪

[@WonderWhatHappened]

Ash has a natural ability to do virtually anything.

[@C-SD]

So true. Ngl I'm jealous.

[@timothydevenport2878]

You should make a short of you doing each skill - would be a great tool for people learning them!

From a simple ground dweller (me), you’re amazing.

[@PattRedfern]

Such a great idea. I will be here for them all. May I suggest you set up a Patreon and post more of the clips attempting these skills as you get to the harder stuff there. As a coach I’d find it interesting to watch you work through learning something like a Liukin on high bar as just a raw training recording.

[@mikaylajayney]

So excited for this! Love this idea! Could you add the level (a/b/c/etc) of the skill you're doing? As a WAG specialist I'd love to learn about the MAG COP as you go along. Good luck!!

[@AtmaniGymnastics]

I am so PUMPED! Please explain the skills in-depth as much as possible and if you could include skills to work your way up!!!! Ty for this series

[@jillianhaas5795]

Can't wait to follow you on this journey. So proud of your hard work and dedication! Your love of the sport is what makes this so much fun to watch.

[@alexismann2069]

What a cool challenge! I’m excited to follow along. I know this might add to the editing time, but would it be feasible to add the name of the skill on the screen somewhere as you’re doing it? I think it would help me (and maybe others?) to follow along and see what you’re doing

[@vivianevans8323]

This is amazing, Ash - and it's a brilliant preparation for us sofa-living critters for the Olympics later this year, making us understand what truly hard work and dedication is involved to perform at that level.

[@tiinaremes2341]

127 done and lots to go! Take care and you don't have to rush. We are here to root for you! 💛

[@Joy-ii1hx]

Love to see u have ur mojo back it is so great to watch u creating content on a sport that u trained for so long, u,make the p bars so effortless.😊

[@CherithB]

loving ur commitment in u trying these skills, looking forward to watching ur journey, with joanna by ur side ur biggest cheerleader.😊

[@KatPickles]

I have no idea how you’re doing this! Incredible, Ash. You and Jay are definitely #goals. Wishing you all the best! Don’t forget that professional athletes get lots of massages and PT!

[@danfullmetal]

That flying back was just incredible!!. Looking forward to seeing those 900+ skills. Ash, you are truly amazing and an inspiration to me. Keep up the good work!!

[@dannybevan7420]

would love to see all of the footage of the attempts and behind the scenes stuff as well :)

[@bucketofchum5045]

It'd be cool to see the skill names written on the screen with each ting! So we can fully appreciate what you are doing! Also, goes without saying, but I think this project is an amazing undertaking and I look forward to seeing you go through it!

[@Becka.M-D]

Firstly you are not old. I have always heard people from a young age up until over a 100 say that they are old. But you also see people that people class as “old” still doing things that’s you wouldn’t expect them to be doing. So I believe when someone says that they are old, it’s more of a state of mind, because later they may do something & not feel that way. So for me, you are not old. Also your age is not just a number, it’s a culmination of all the things you have done in a single lap of the sun. Some years you do more, other years less than what you have done the year before. This is a big challenge, an incredible target to have set for yourself & we are proud of you for undertaking such a challenge. I cannot wait to see you progress through this & you will end up smashing it. You know what has happened to you body before, but you now need to keep a positive mindset & we will send you as much positivity in these messages. Keep smashing it!!

[@sophieann0304]

Joanna’s “woohoo” noise was perfect!

[@parentalguidancerecommended251]

So stoked you decided to go ahead with this series idea. Can't wait for the rest. Just don't die.

[@xfortunesquex]

This is going to be great! I'm also glad to see that you are taking appropriate measures to safeguard your health. We really need more examples of people doing their best, but within healthy limits/standards. It'll be really cool to see you do all of these!

[@annegasko7719]

Can’t wait to watch you take on this journey/challenge. I especially appreciate the compassion and space you’re giving yourself - taking a break when you need to, and being able to just say ‘we’ll come back to that’ without any judgement. As a recovering perfectionist, it’s lovely to watch 😊

[@DianneAguilera]

Great work! Love the quick explanations of the differences in actually doing skills that look so similar (such as piroutting backward with your weight having to go over the bars).

[@lunap7029]

I love how you continuously push yourself. You keep trying to grow and learn new things and that's beautiful. So is the support your chosen family always gives each other. So wholesome and heart warming.

[@nbmarshall1]

Congratulations on setting yourself this amazing goal! Improving your fitness along the way is a great benefit. I really enjoy watching you perform the skills!

[@moemoe211]

Way to go Ash!

[@job996]

Brilliant idea, I'll be tuned in. Nice variety too with a few ting, ting, ting vlogs and others more specific on a certain skill that takes you a while to nail. Love it. P.S the ting is definitely not annoying it's weirdly satisfying 😂

[@jackieagenbach4950]

From South Africa, a very well done, Ashley! How inspiring!! #HATSOFFTOYOU!

[@JosieCote]

Well done Ash, fun idea! Would be so great if you also put the name of the skills on the screen when you’re doing them!! Pretty please! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Would be so good for those of us who are not gymnasts and love to learn more 😊

[@nilsp9426]

Good luck on this journey! You are a true ambassador of the sport. Back in school I was really frustrated with gymnastics to the point of avoiding it as much as I could. We were never really able to train and learn gymnastic skills but we were still graded on our ability to perform them. Minimal instruction, almost no intermediate steps, maximum judgement... Your videos make me see the fun side of gymnastics and how through hard work you can overcome all these seemingly impossible challenges. Also: 16:03 that was absolutely hilarious! Love your videos!

[@Lucas_SM_Gymnasthenics]

This series is going to be amazing!! So exciting, nice idea

I am so excited to see this series! Thank you for always giving your all and putting your body on the line for our entertainment! Cheering from the US. (Request: do you think the name of the skill could be captioned in the edit?)
