Are there things you want to try doing but just can't right now? (1 Viewer)

Like any skill or fun thing you wish to try but due to personal reasons or lack of resources, you cant?

I want to do digital art but I dont have a stylus so although I could use the phone to draw on, its pointless if I try it with a finger

Trying rhythmic gymnastics sounds kind of cool but it’s not the cheapest hobby

The ribbons look the most fun I have no chance with the balls or clubs though Probably not with ribbons either but they still look fun

Ribbons are fun and easy, you just wave them around, kids are very talented at it

Free climbing. But I have acrophobia (fear of heights), so it isn't possible.

Except if you wave them wrong they get tangled (which is a deduction). Oh and you need to toss them too At the 1:00 minute mark here

but but is it safer than normal gymnastics?

On its own not sure, there’s less tumbling to get injured by doing, but overuse injuries can be pretty intense. That said, my level of ability in rhythmic is lower than artistic, so that may protect me because I won’t be doing elements that are as difficult from a relative standpoint.

from what I've seen it seems safer but that's only to an outsider like me

There’s a bigger focus on flexibility which can also lead to injuries. Like this is not usual to see for stretching for rhythmic gymnastics. And overdoing flexibility can easily injure you, especially long term. Artistic gymnasts (most women, though men a little bit too) stretch as well, but they don’t do it to the extent that rhythmic gymnastics demands. I can’t claim that one definitely has more injuries than the other at the moment, but I do know for sure that the perceived injury rate for rhythmic gymnasts is lower than the reality because the injuries come from overuse, rather than something easier to see like the idea that if you do a flip and land on your head, that’s bad. Artistic gymnasts have overuse injuries too, but from different sources usually.
