Everything is about your movements and precision and timing, which is what gymnastics is about.

Well-I don't know if anyone would really ask me to prom.

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.

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

Were taught at such a young age that you can always be better and that youre never perfect and that youre never good enough.

It might have been easier to retire, to say my knee couldn't handle it and let that be that. At the same time, the prospect of not being able to compete in gymnastics anymore was heartbreaking.

My other life keeps me calm and grounded and normal.
