I was at the Olympic Games winning medals and I still doubted my image. I doubted what I looked like. That's sad.

When I was 3 my parents put me in gymnastics because I was a bundle of energy and they just didn't know what to do with me! They put me in a Tots class and I just fell in love with it.

I don't want to be all power and muscle.

Hot yoga is the best. When you're in [class], there are no cell phones, no talking, no distractions. You're taking a leave from reality for an hour or so.

Of course, when you're training your whole life to get to the Olympics, you train for gold.

To finish off this whole Olympics by finally getting the gold medal, it's the best feeling in the world.

I set my phone with motivational quotes to go off on random days and times. Like, 'You're stronger than you think you are.' I'll forget about it, then one will pop up and it'll give me a little boost.
