I don't think I've ever not gotten nervous. When you work so hard for one special day or routine, you want to perform it better than you ever have. We always say at our gym, If you lose the nerves, you lose the sport.

Gymnastics is so complex.

I still can't believe I'm an Olympic athlete.

I started taking gymnastic classes when I was 3 years old.

It sounds funny, but the 2008 Olympics were something that just kind of happened, and I was lucky they came at a point when I was uninjured and well prepared. As a gymnast, you can't ask for much more.

A comeback in gymnastics is almost impossible in itself.

People only see gymnastics on TV and in the Olympics at such an extreme. So it can be intimidating.
