My first experience with gymnastics was when I was in daycare. We took a field trip to a gym, and I was hooked.

Simone Biles

I don’t fear what will happen, but you just get ahead of yourself, like, ‘Oh my gosh, I wish it would happen now.’
SIMONE BILES

Fear Let Go Myself Yourself
We go to church on Sunday and then have family dinner. My mom usually cooks, and most of the time, it’s protein and something else. She will ask us kids what we want!
SIMONE BILES

Family Mom Myself Time
In the morning, I usually get up between 7:40 A.M. and 7:45 A.M., and then I’ll brush my teeth, do my hair, and just throw on my leotard and my clothes and go to the kitchen.

Appearance Hairs Morning Myself
I think I’m teaching my teammates that they can still be successful while having fun and enjoying the moment rather than being a stone cold brick.
SIMONE BILES

Enjoyment Moments Myself Success Teaching Thinking
You can have fun and do well. Just let loose a bit.

Experience Myself
I would be like, ‘Oh, my gosh, I wish I could go to prom.’ But then I think, ‘You know what? A lot of people can’t say they’ve ever done what I do – they’ll never have this opportunity.’
SIMONE BILES

Myself Opportunity People Thinking
You can’t get too caught up in yourself.
SIMONE BILES

One Liner Yourself
I tune it all out because if I let other people’s stress get to me, then I stress myself out more than I need to.
SIMONE BILES

Myself Need People Worry
I don’t really think about the degree of difficulty or the possibility of making a mistake. I just try to relax and let my preparation and training take over.

Difficult Mistake Myself Possible Preparation Thinking Training
Growing up, it was kind of a struggle being small, since everyone would make fun of you – except for when it came to hide and seek: that’s the only advantage I ever had!

I started gymnastics when I was six years old. I was at day care, and they took us on a field trip to a gym club, Bannon’s Gymnastix in Houston, and that’s how I got started.

I never thought about competing in the Olympic Games when I was growing up.
SIMONE BILES

Competition Game Growth Myself Thinking
We’ve always had each other’s backs in and out of competition. We support each other the most because we’re the only ones that know what it’s like to go through what we do, and so we can’t be more thankful for each other. We’re like sisters.
SIMONE BILES

Each Other Family Friendship Oneself Support Thankful
One of my favourite things to do is compete for a crowd. It’s just really fun for me.
SIMONE BILES

Competition Fun Oneself
I was missing out on public school and going to the football games, prom or homecomings. But I’ve been to three World Championships. So I think it’s like a win-win.
SIMONE BILES

Game Missing Myself Win
My mom, Nellie, got me a rosary at church. I don’t use it to pray before a competition. I’ll just pray normally to myself, but I have it there in case.
SIMONE BILES

Mom Myself Prayer Religious
Sometimes I hear the crowd cheering, and most of the time your body’s on auto pilot, so sometimes even after I do a floor routine, I’m like, ‘Did I really just do that?’
SIMONE BILES

One of my proudest moments was probably 2013 Worlds because I proved to myself that I could do things that I didn’t think I could.

It was a very long and hard decision. My dad kept telling me, ‘You can always go to college, but you can’t always go pro.’ That made sense to me.
SIMONE BILES

Always work hard and have fun in what you do because I think that’s when you’re more successful. You have to choose to do it.

For me, I don’t think about size – I focus more on being powerful and confident.

I have practice from 9 A.M. to 12 P.M., and then I drive home and eat lunch, which is either chicken or fish so I get the protein.
