How do you feel about your performance at Trials?
I felt I had one of the best competitions ever even though I didn’t do floor or vault at the trials. I had a good feeling for some reason as soon as I got to California and set foot in the arena. I had such an amazing time last year at the Worlds and I felt a sense of comfort when I was back there in the arena.
How do you feel about your performance at Trials?
I was really happy with it. I only had one routine that I missed and I feel my overall performance was strong. I’m really happy to be on team.
How does it feel to know you are heading to your first Olympic Games in little more than a month?

What does it mean to you to be headed to the Olympics for the second consecutive time?
It means a lot, especially this time around. I am in a different position than the last Olympic Games. This year I am in a position to medal as an individual and with the team as well.

One of the most popular and oldest sports of the Olympics, Gymnastics has been a part of “the games” since ancient times. The sport traces its origins to Greece where athletes received physical training in a special arena, in addition to many other disciplines including the arts, philosophy and literature. “Gymnos,” the Greek word for naked, is the origin for the word gymnastics. Competition events fall into one of three categories, Artistic Gymnastics, Rhythmic Gymnastics and Trampoline.
The history of Modern Pentathlon is one of the most exciting of the Olympic sports! The sport originated from a legend where a warrior has to surmount many obstacles to convey a message.

This ancient form was incorporated into the ancient Olympic Games in 708 BC.

Judo, meaning “the gentle way” in Japanese, originated from the martial arts techniques developed over thousands of years at Jujitsu schools. Unlike most martial arts, Judo’s focus is on using your opponent’s strength to your own advantage.
Did you know that Rowing first originated not as a sport, but as a means of transport in the ancient cultures of Egypt, Greece and Rome? It was also used in warfare, since superiority in the water was a sure way to win a war. The Athenians, for example, frequently won because their warships would ram enemy ships at great speed!

How is preparation going for the Trials?
Training is going very well. I can’t complain. My bicep is feeling okay and everything is right on schedule. I won’t have in as many routines as I should have because of the injury. I’ve only been doing routines for about three weeks, but I still don’t feel too bad.
