[@kbrown5523]

I think you tied. Sophia won flexibility, Ian won strength, and you all tied on the twists so that's a tie overall. Great job and fun video!

[@consciousbeing9654]

Feels like gymnastics is all about pain

[@iangunther]

Pretty much sums it up

[@Ellaslifee1]

Yeah😭 it basically is I can confirm as a gymnast

[@cailyn2011]

No its fun 😂😂😂

[@LilyBarney-s1z]

Your exactly right 😭

[@RussellByers]

Yes😅😢

[@Emily-tv1iz]

She’s skilled at women’s gymnastics discipline, he’s skilled at men’s gymnastics discipline. With their powers combined they can…probably put on a stellar dance number honestly

[@giatomcat8790]

Good sportsmanship is the winner here. Both were cheering each other on. And these two have really good chemistry.

[@captainbryce1]

The results make sense because women's gymnastics focuses more on leg and back flexibility (beam leaps/choreography), whereas men's gymnastics focuses much more on strength and shoulder flexibility (rings/parallel bars). So I always expect a female gymnast to have more leg and back flexibility, and the male gymnast to have more upper body strength and shoulder flexibility. The acrobatic elements can go either way. Traditional thinking suggests that men have an advantage here because the sport requires more difficult elements to train on vault and floor. However, Simone Biles has been systematically destroying this theory for years. People like Jake Jarman and Kenzo Shirai are anomalies. So I agree that this is likely to end in a tie and I'm glad it did. Very entertaining.

[@kjgammon1658]

Impossible to declare a winner in that competition.... both very talented flexible and strong as well as being beautiful and gracious!

[@breemlew]

20yrs dance teacher here. The wall split is massively less pressure on joints that only bend one way (your knees.)

[@demowotv]

makes sense because gravity is pulling parallel to your legs instead of perpendicular on the floor

[@demowotv]

me with my 2 years of gymnastics i did 6 years ago thinking im the shit tho

[@gaylesmith7849]

And it hurts more because your standing foot remains firmly flexed

You are all the best gym dorks. Love it. 😊

[@sophiacampanagymnast]

😂😂 love this

[@racingintherains]

I love this competition, really highlights the difference between male and female gymnastics disciplines. Also - really really good sporting when she was trying the parallel bar tricks! Super responsive and reassuring spots that didn’t take away from her strength display! I’m honestly impressed with the both of your efforts at the other side of the sport, well done!

[@johncousineau1250]

That was so much fun to watch! It’s amazing to see some of the skills that are used in gymnastics. You really challenge yourselves and push your physical limits in very entertaining ways. 😅

Amazing Ian! You are so talented and you are an absolute beast! Love these long form videos and challenges!

[@iangunther]

Thanks a ton!

[@sararomien6342]

At the end around the 15:00 mark, does anyone else notice the girl in the back bouncing on a snowboard?

[@sunnystream8476]

Maybe she’s doing snowboard training

[@ultigirlinCO]

The toes on point made me subscribe. That’s a swimmer stretch as well, and it's so brutal.

[@bethbarr682]

Just watching Ian pop his shoulders out of socket makes my arms hurt just watching there is no way I would ever even try that and walking on your feet bent like that hurts thinking about it too great job Sophialand on that one for real.

[@helvete_ingres4717]

that's just skinning the cat, its not very hard

[@allisterfong4867]

As long as you’re having fun you’re both winners.

I used to do gymnastics for 4 years but then i stopped cuz my body was just hurting

i watch your shorts all the time, and you and all your friends have such amazing and shining personalities. this is the first long video i’ve watched of yours and i was genuinely so surprised how much more your personality shines (even though that probably sounds really stupid)

the flirtatious energy is unmatched

[@minaisfab17]

Ian has a girlfriend

[@stoneminer4464]

where? lol

[@LoneWolf-we9gk]

They're just friends?? Talking like friends?? Is this because its a guy and a girl? Because i genuinely couldn't see how one could view their interactions as romantic

Not every male and female interactions is flirting... You need to get your brain checked

​@@LoneWolf-we9gkThe straights are not normal I swear

“Sleep in a middle split.” This guy yin yogas! 🤣 (And on a related note, I just discovered last night that weighted blankets are GREAT tools for training flexibility moves…)

[@lanasinapayen3354]

I love her laugh!

[@chrisdalle5450]

Ian big brothered the support on rings. I'm sure he can hold that pike support for 30+ seconds

[@chrisdalle5450]

Forgot to mention about the ring position difference between them as well. Ian ftw!

[@Blaubarschbube01]

I really appreciate you two for wearing socks in this video, most of the time when you see online content about Gymnastics, people are often practicing bare feet thinking they are the only ones practicing there.

[@Loanshark753]

You need to wear grippy socks.

[@jordanyoder9356]

Sleeping in a middle split?! That’s insane!!

[@kyerinbennett8391]

GUNTHY! Go all out for the 2024 Olympics you can do it and you want to. Just get in the gym upgrade your routines focus you can do it

4:25 we do it as dancers too! we walk like this around our houses)

[@CCPShiny]

What’s stunning is how much of gymnastics relies on the constant adaptability and growth of the athlete… I mean, granted, I’m not super athletic, so maybe I’m just underestimating other sports, but it seems like for the most part, other sports go along the lines of: get strong, learn to do your job, stay strong, get as good as you can at a job that stays roughly the same throughout your career. Whereas gymnastics, it’s like “okay… I’m strong, and I’m good at this set of skills… now let’s spend my entire career constantly learning more and more things to do the job… and only really stop (or just slow down) if/when my body can’t take it any more” 😂 👏 the endurance through it all, and the crazy stuff you guys can continuously learn to do with your bodies is mind blowing to me. Great video! ❤

[@Catastropheshe]

2:33 how to dislocate both of your arms in the same time 😂😂😂😂

[@Daltonator87]

Have you ever noticed that most gymnasts that have their splits often had their splits or were close the very first time they tried? Thats my experience when I coached gymnastics.

[@A.Bright_Star]

I don't have mine yet and I can only do it sometimes

[@irandude1655]

I’ll be impressed if male gymnast wears the same attire as female gymnast during performance.

[@adopttheadventure1942]

9:17 Bro looked like he was enjoying that 🤨🤨

[@Catxukluth]

I am on a color guard team (kinda a mix of dance and gymnastics and equipment stuff) and we do the exact same thing of going through a video frame by frame to count rotations lol

[@Chandler.C_1993]

Colorguard girlie here too!! People definitely don't know how physically demanding and how many elements go into it. Like you said, it's dance, acrobatics, equipment, and a little bit military (at least our guard trained very military, our band director was even in the army, and directed the army band 😂) It worked though, we won best overall guard in the state several times!! Loved getting those patches on my letterman lol

[@gmpiri4327]

Handsome Ian won!

No, no, no. Like a *maaaaan* 😎😎😎

[@SomeoneOnlyWeKnow.]

I find it weird how women's and men's gymnastics aren't just women and men doing gymnastics, they're basically different sports. And women's gymnastics conceptually interests me far more, and though I don't do gymnastics anyway I wonder how annoying it would be if I wanted to the _women's_ kind of gymnastics but was made to do the _men's_ kind, or the other way around.

[@AddisonKKornegay]

The pained noises in the middle split is so real

[@Jhevi012]

6:59 try doing this but your whole foot is flat in the ground I believe that's more harder than doing this and doing a tip toe

[@LeoGuabellijr]

No gymnast is an island, all are equal in competition.

[@millacabral9475]

Ian wins cause he was twisting forwards, imo. Also he tried everything with full commitment.

I did this back roll on the bar at the beginning of the film every day on the playground when I was a child, from the age of 8 to, you could say, 13 years old.

[@beawitched5252]

The popping of his shoulders was audible 🥴

[@harriettsang3741]

Back when I was in middle school and full of misplaced confidence, I thought I could do a front flip off a springboard, since I could do a rollie pollie on the floor and figured it was exactly the same. I ran up and did the forward flip. Or I tried to because my knees clocked me in the head and knocked my glasses off, and then I near landed on my head (albeit on the mat) and nearly gave myself a concussion Let's just say the PE teacher had an eye on me for the rest of the year and banned me from forward flipping unless on the floor

[@skateata1]

😂 I have spent years trying to gain flexibility. I've gotten better but still can't get the oversight.

[@handofclay5390]

the strenght chellenges were mainly skills only used in male gymnastics xD For what event do female gymnasts need an iron cross or planches (or just their triceps in general) xD

[@nisstyre877]

And… women have wider hips which leads to greater flexibility. How is a man going to compete with a women on something like an over-split and hope to beat them, or even equal them?

[@kageekao5524]

U should do a tutorial how to do shoulder thing

[@AmberCrawford-mott]

I did it when i did a pike around the bar, but it was metal, I will stop there for 10 minutes and I dislocated my shoulder

[@findingfionnagan]

i know basically nothing about gymnastics - in the twist challenge, why does ian start further from the foam and move forward vs. sophia starting right next to the foam? is it because they are different weights and the trampoline is different tensions at different spots or something?
