On the 10th anniversary of McKayla Maroney's final elite competition in Antwerp, Belgium we revisit her 2016 interview. The Olympic and World Champion settles long debated gymternet questions and we find out what caused the physical and emotional breakdown that ultimately ended her elite career. We discuss: If she feared blowback from speaking frankly about her experiences. The skill she tried that Marta Karolyi told her to never to do again. The circumstances surrounding her injuries and multiple surgeries. The post-Olympic tour conditions and their effects on her health. She answers fans suspicions that her injuries are due to poor nutrition. Some fans claim that All Olympia Gymnastics Center (AOGC) break gymnasts, her responds. Did the advice she received from her coaches contribute to her injuries? How she dealt with self identity as she struggled to stay healthy. Discusses the role of humility and insecurity through the Olympic selection process. Does she think the men's team should be more like the women's program in order to be more successful? Dealing with criticism on social media. She describes her personal experiences as an elite gymnast, and their influence on changes she would like to see made at the national team level. Who does she credit with teaching her that amazing vault technique: her second coach, Howie Liang at Gym-Max or her Olympic coach, Artur Akopyan at All Olympia Gymnastics Center (AOGC)? Why did she go overtime in 2013 at the Antwerp World Championships on floor SUPPORT OUR WORK Join Club Gym Nerd (or give it as a gift!) for access to weekly Behind the Scenes episodes.

Strictly going by standings, reigning Olympic all-around gold medalist Sunisa Lee finished last at the U.S. Championships — yet ask anybody who knows her and they will view those results in a completely different light. "It is exciting to see her overcome everything that she has and come back out here stronger, because I think it does send a good message to the younger ones," said Simone Biles, who won her eighth championship. The score sheet with Biles on top and Lee at the very bottom hardly told the story of Lee's tumultuous year dealing with a kidney-related health issue and just how much it took to even get to San Jose, California where the championships were held. In and out of the hospital because of the kidney issue, the 20-year-old Lee was forced to end her sophomore collegiate season early at Auburn. On April 3, she posted on social media: "My focus at this time is my health and recovery." So the fact she competed at U.S. Championships mattered so much more than the tie for 27th place. Oh, and Lee still got to stand on the podium with a bronze finish on the beam. She didn't compete at all on uneven bars — her signature event — or floor exercise, causing the lowest score. Lee's eyes are still clearly set on the Paris Olympics next summer, seemingly determined as ever to overcome the latest challenges in her young life. If anyone knows how to persevere, it's Lee. U.S. Olympic medalist Chellsie Memmel, the technical lead for USA Gymnastics, admires Lee's courage to keep fighting through each tough day. Nobody is counting her out to make the Americans' five-woman squad. "I'm proud of what she's able to do dealing with everything that she is going through," Memmel said. "So to be able to come out here each day and perform very nice on beam and vault, she's not just doing those events, we've gotten to see her train on bars. It's inspiring." Lee could be chosen to compete in just a couple of events for the Americans. Whatever happens, Lee has a huge cheering section as she goes forward. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

If you've been following U.S.A. gymnastics at any point over the past 20-25 years, then you will know my guest today. Chellsie Memmel is one of the most accomplished gymnasts in our country, winning medals in national and world competitions. And she has now written a best-selling book about the lessons she learned along the way. We talk about the book (Chellsie's Challenges: Life Lessons Learned From an Olympic Gymnast), her career, and so much more in this episode, so please sit back and listen in while Chellsie shares her story. ------ Chellsie Memmel came into the gymnastics spotlight in 2003 when she won five medals, including the team and all-around gold, at the Pan American Games. That same year she competed in the World Championships and helped secure the team gold. For her outstanding 2003 season, she was named the TOPs Co-Athlete of the Year with Carly Patterson. At the 2005 World Championships, she became the first U.S. woman since 1994 to win the all-around gold medal. That year, she tied for USA Gymnastics Women's Athlete of the Year. During the 2006 World Championships, she incurred a shoulder injury, but was still able to help her team earn the silver medal. She became one of the 10 finalists for the Women's Sports Foundation Sportswoman of the Year that year and was also nominated twice for the prestigious AAU Sullivan Award in 2003 and 2005. Chellsie competed on the U.S. Olympic Team in 2008 in Beijing, China, and took home a team silver medal. She retired from the sport in 2012 and married her husband, Kory the following year. They have two children, Dashel and Audrielle. In 2018 she started an online program called Chellsie Challenges to motivate people to keep moving, and in 2020, she announced she was going to begin competing again. She went on to compete in the US Classics and Championships in 2021 and participated in the Gold Over America Tour. In 2022, she retired from the sport again and accepted the position of High Performance Technical Lead at USA Gymnastics. She currently coaches gymnastics, works for USA Gymnastics, and lives with her family in Wisconsin. You can purchase her book on Amazon here.

Today on the podcast I am super flattered to welcome back Chellsie Memmel for another epic episode. The 2005 World All-Around Champion, the third American woman to achieve this feat, and Beijing Olympic Team member. Chellsie now 33 years of age and mom of 2, made a phenomenal gymnastic comeback in 2020 documenting her inspiring journey on her YouTube channel, and competed again after 9 years at the U.S. Classic and National Championships in 2021. I wanted to have Chellsie back on the show to have a conversation about the differences and benefits of adding weight training to gymnastics, and how her ideas on conditioning have changed and developed from when she was younger training for the Olympics versus now as an adult gymnast. We discuss: What does a week of training and conditioning look like for Chellsie Memmel? How Chellsie implemented external weight training into her conditioning. What advice Chellsie would tell her younger self. Chellsie's top tips on taking care of your body and recovery to keep training. Understanding the fear of gaining weight from eating or lifting weights and the advice you need to know. Why gymnastics isn't just for kids it's for adults too. And… Everything you need to know about the first Gymnastics Camp for Adults.
