5. How Did Simone Biles Start Her Gymnast Career?

Biles was introduced to gymnastics when she was just 6 years old. After attending a daycare field trip in Texas, she was sent home with a note from her instructors, encouraging her parents to let her continue training. Thankfully, they followed their advice and enrolled Biles at a training program at Bannon's Gymnastics.

According to her book, The End of the Perfect 10, Biles's first trainer, Aimee Boorman, recalled, “We said, 'This kid’s got talent and we believe she’s going to learn things really fast,'”

However, Biles required a bit more work when it came to leaps, jumps and overall flexibility. Boorman added, “I explained to her that on bars, she does actually have to think. She has to be [a] smart gymnast on bars because [it] doesn’t come naturally for her.”

Looks like the gymnast has come a far way since she got her start.
