With her eyes set on Paris 2024, Inside Gymnastics sat down with 3-time Olympic old medalist Gabby Douglas in January 2024 to discuss her decision to comeback to the sport after a 7 year hiatus. Douglas talks finding her love for the sport again and what it was like getting back in the gym.

She seems so different now. She seems relaxed, composed, and happy. This is wonderful. Cheered for you back in 2012 and 2016. Hope to cheer for you in 2024 in Paris!

It seems a lot of gymnasts are in that mind set and very mature. Plus less injuries and higher quality of the movements too. Probably because the former coaches are removed from the program and the sexual scandal came to light. The one thing that bothered me the most was the camps that took away the parents from being protective of their child. A predator’s playground.

If I remember correctly was it that she did poorly or was she disqualified because of the 2 person per country rule? I feel like she had a good showing, but she was overshadowed by the politics and icy reception from a specific teammate who became the new darling and basically made her old teammates freeze her out during that Olympic cycle.

Confesso que quando vi a reportagem meu coração acelerou sabe? Como é bom ver o retorno da Gabby, uma lenda da ginástica, provando que esse sistema cruel que a imporam para as atletas não é maior que a paixão delas por esse esporte lindo. Dói ver como pegam jóias como a Gabby e a ferem, maltratam em busca de resultados e patrocínio. Mas aí está ela. Mais forte e mais firme. Mesmo que ela não estivesse em Paris estou feliz em vê-la competindo, fazendo aquilo que nasceu para fazer e principalmente, não desistir antes do tempo.
