What can I do for a gymnastics rip?

Gymnastics with belly ring?

• i was wondering if you can take gymnastics with a belly ring in. will it rip out? like if i do a backhandspring will it rip out? if i do i a bridge it doesnt but bridges are slower so i dont know help

• Answer:

  yes you can do a backhandspring and anything with a belly ring in. i do it all the time, im also a cheelreader and i also stunt with it in. trust me it will not pop or rip out. put a bandaid over it so then your leotard or shirts wont get caught. the only way its going to get ripped out is if someone does it by physically pulling it out or harshly hitting the ball in a downward motion or you pull it out. try not to wear dangly ones either. but the chance of it ripping is slim and it wont rip from doing gymnastics. i also had the same problem as you with the 2 hour thing, i couldnt even take it out for 5 minutes. start spraying your belly button with neosporin and keep the ring in and dont play with it. dont change the ring for awhile neither, it takes time for it to fully heal again but it will and when it does you can take it out for long. but that process take s a few monthes so dont play with it just put a non-dangly in and you'll be fine.
