I just do workouts.

I used to have the whole national gymnastics meet to prep for/compete at, but I don't do that anymore.

Forgot to mention that since my season has ended, and I'm graduating soon, my coach and I have dropped the athlete-coach relationship and become friends. Thus, we are training together all summer, and are planning a road trip. :D
