While she may have taken a temporary break after her Tokyo win, the Olympic champ soon returned with full force as she shifted to collegiate competitions.
Training can get pretty intense for the athlete, especially since she started competing more regularly. Like most top-tier gymnasts, core conditioning and strengthening exercises are a must. Squats, mat jumps, box jumps, and kettlebell swings are just some of the workouts to get powerful gymnast legs.
