Rocco shows off his super-hero skills!

Rocco was invited to move up to the boys gymnastics team, Mighty Munchkins, this past March. So, he went from a beginner, co-ed class to a developmental boys strength & skill training team. He looks to be the youngest on the team…but seems to be doing really well!

So, now instead of being enrolled in two different classes that each met for 45 mins, once weekly, he’s enrolled in this new class which meets for one hour, twice weekly. Rocco really likes this. Proof is in the pudding… and the child has been very busy showing off all his fancy new tricks and stunts and strength on various furniture pieces throughout our house. Ack! We are constantly reminding him to be careful and keep it in the gym. Dan & I often joke that Rocco has enough energy to participate in at least 8 hours of gymnastics each week!

A side note on Rocco is that the child is solid as a rock. His body fat percentage must  be very low…and he now weighs just 4lbs less than Gabby. So, he’s a big kiddo.
Gym Jam is the annual show where the kids showcase their strength and the skills they’ve learned in various routines. Rocco did SUCH a great job. Dan and I were both so impressed while watching him perform on the various apparatus. The strength that gymnastics develops in young people is incredible! We were very impressed with his strength and the skills he’d learned on both the pommel horse and parallel bars.
Such a little cutie… I was proud to see him show off!
