Embrace your crazy.

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.

I'm doing four hours of gymnastics training a day, six days a week and then an extra two to three hours in a fitness center as well.

Gymnastics is not only a good thing to live by, but it is important to understand how it does help you in life.

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

I don't call them sacrifices. I call them exchanges.

Image isn't everything, It's what comes from your heart, and what you learn and what you say and how you act that means more than anything.

A comeback in gymnastics is almost impossible in itself.

My approach to gymnastics in Beijing was heavily based on the amount of difficulty I could do.
