Social Media Round-Up: Saturdays are for the Boys
No turning back now, gymnastics at the 2016 Rio Olympics is officially underway with men's qualification happening all day Saturday. With plenty of ups and downs, social media has been buzzing. The ladies are getting their final prep in before their debut tomorrow! Here are today's top pics, posts and shares.

The hometown team receiving lots of love during men's qualifying and Sergio Sasaki and Diego Hypolito sharing that the feeling is mutual!




Team USA is off to a good start and has been sharing their excitement and pride all day long. 

Chris Brooks shared this post with a perfectly written caption before their competition started.



The boys got to meet up with Secretary of State, John Kerry, before today's events!



Jake Dalton feeling confident in today and moving forward.



The support from home was solid as well, with some tiny cheerleaders making noise all the way from the States for Alex Naddour and the whole squad.




Canada, Cuba, Great Britain...all out there having the time of their lives.





On the eve of their big day, many of the ladies are feeling excited and anxious.

Hometown ladies looking ready to go!




Larissa Miller still feeling her Austialian opening ceremonies swag!



Ashton Locklear gave us a peek into what she was looking like during her time in Rio and it is hands down flawless. Not ashamed to admit that I have watched it more than 10 times already.



And the ladies of Team USA are looking intensely focused...or maybe not intensely, but fabulous nonetheless.




Happy Rio everyone!
