“ Gymnastics taught me everything - life lessons, responsibility and discipline and respect. ”
I'm trying to stay as calm as possible and focus one day at a time, but when reality sets in, I feel everything: anxiety, excitement, nerves, pressure and joy.

I pay attention to my diet to be a healthier gymnast, but I'm not obsessive over it.
I was at the Olympic Games winning medals and I still doubted my image. I doubted what I looked like. That's sad.
I'm doing four hours of gymnastics training a day, six days a week and then an extra two to three hours in a fitness center as well.
