I just tell people to listen to your heart. Anything is possible if you are doing something you love.

I think having the right music can really help you have fun while staying in shape. Make a great playlist that motivates you!

From what my friends tell me, apparently some guys can be pretty intimidated by me when they find out what I do. I find it funny because I try to be modest and I don't like to talk about gymnastics unless I am asked about it. But my roommates always take on my bragging rights and tell my life story to the guys we meet, which leaves me blushing.

And I want a gold medal more than anything. I just want a gold medal, so that's been pushing me forward.

I like that my body is in shape and toned, and isn't too muscular. I feel I still have a woman's physique.

Growing up I definitely looked up to Dominique Moceanu. She was my favorite gymnast and she was on that '96 Olympic team. She was always so fun to watch. I kind of wanted to model my career after hers.

I'm a firm believer in if you work hard you should play hard. So I try to keep my life as balanced as possible to keep my sanity.
