Yes. First off to adjust some people’s perspective of Ms. Biles, and also of themselves, with that question , are you working as hard as you can? And, conversely, you can achieve your goals. (Personally, I’m definitely not working as hard as I can, and I’m fine never being the GOAT at anything at all.)

Her backhandsprings and round offs are literally state of the art. It’s how she generates so much power. Her form should be taught and studied in every gym.

And I could watch a Simone floor routine of just her doing round offs to back handsprings lol

A true inherited gift is something you just do extremely well - better than your peers - without having to work at it. It just comes naturally, like creative writing, instrumental music ability (ear for music), singing, physical strength and power, etc., etc..

I'm from Houston, and of course her name is all over the place over here and rightly so. I for one take her achievements for granted in a way. I hear or watch her winning and thing yeah that's great!

FANTASTIC - you should consider studying human biomechanics. (Maybe you are?). The one additional component on this particular pass would be to include having to manage the corner to corner distance of the floor to ensure she maintains her momentum, and doesn’t step OOB.
