How do you become an elite gymnast?

Becoming an elite gymnast is usually the result of being a competitive gymnast for several years. It takes a lot of practice. As an elite gymnast, you are the best. You sacrifice all other things in your life for practicing gymnastics. It is not something you can just wake up and say, "I want to be an elite gymnast". You first have to be a gymnast, then a competitive gymnast, then an elite. Usually the elite gymnasts do not choose to be an elite gymnast, but the coaches choose them to be an elite.

What is the advantage to a gymnast of being short in stature?

Many gymnastic moves involve a rapid rotation of the body about a horizontal axis passing through the center of gravity of the body. The difficulty of doing this is proportional to the gymnast's "radius of gyration", and this depends largely on the gymnast's stature. Shorter people can somersault quicker.
