Simone Biles was forced to withdraw from five of the six finals at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics (Credit: Agência Brasil Fotografias/ CC BY 2.0/ Wikimedia Commons)

Thanks to hours of training, gymnasts seem to effortlessly fly through the air at impossible heights. However, a psychological condition, known as "the twisties," can sidetrack even the most experienced gymnast. The phenomenon, attributed to stress, disorients the athletes and causes them to lose awareness while they are in the middle of a routine. It can lead to serious injury.

          This makes a lot of sense to me. If I were half as accomplished as her then I would not risk my safety for a few more medals and accolades. She is very smart.

                  She is so amazing! I mean you want the gold, but putting yourself first is WAY more important than the piece of gold that isn't even real. She has done this for a long time, so giving it up could be and is hard. So GO SIMONE! 👍❤❤
