We’re not exactly sure what gymnast Simone Biles does to maintain her magic. If they aren’t #SisterGoals, I don’t know what is. Their break isn’t long, though.

As always, the American gymnasts are the best.
“We did a very good job representing everyone back home”, Biles said. For people who believe that they can’t do it, I hope I’m an inspiration to others to get out there and try swimming.
Proud is an understatement.
She’ll return to Stanford, where she owns five school records, after a season off spent preparing for Rio. Now that she’s an Olympic champion, she’s graced several magazine covers, including that of Sports Illustrated, alongside U.S. swimmers Michael Phelps and Katie Ledecky. “I can’t believe I have six Olympic medals so it doesn’t feel real”, she said. But Zac Efron reduced her to giggles. “If you told me that when I was a little girl I would’ve thought you were insane”.
Raisman and Biles have respectively racked up two of the most impressive resumes in Olympic history. The young Olympian not only racked up medals in women’s gymnastics but she also got a kiss from her celebrity crush, Zac Efron.
“Always work hard and have fun in what you do because I think that’s when you’re more successful”, she said. “We’re all here for the same reason”. He spent all week tweeting admiration for the USA gymnastics team and sending along congratulations when Biles and the “Final Five” took home the team gold.
The female Gymnastic team was thrilled with Efron’s visit.
Adria and Simone are always supporting each other.

That includes teammate Gabby Douglas, who was the star at the 2012 London Games but was not as successful in Rio. She’s also the oldest member on the team. It was a routine that Biles has performed many times before, but the hard combinations, high flips and heightened level of energy left the audience captivated every single time. As commentators look on in awe, Biles wipes the floor with some explosive moves. If you missed it (or you want to watch it again and again, like us), the video is now on YouTube.
