Simone Biles opens up about her mental health post-Olympics: 'I'm still scared to do gymnastics'
CNN
Gymnast Simone Biles, who disclosed her mental health struggles during the Tokyo Olympics, says she's "still scared to do gymnastics."
In an emotional interview on NBC's "Today" show on Thursday, Biles said she's still struggling with the "twisties" as she performs on her Gold Over America Tour. The twisties is a mental block where competitors can lose track of where they are while in midair.
"I don't twist (on tour). I do double lay half-outs, which is my signature move on the floor. That's never affected me. But everything else weighs so heavy, and I watch the girls do it, and it's not the same," said Biles, arguably the greatest gymnast of all time.
