" Simone Biles experienced a "frightening" phenomenon known as "the twisties" before her Olympics withdrawal... a "frightening predicament" similar to the yips, in which gymnasts "lose control of their bodies as they spin through the air." With this "mysterious phenomenon," a gymnast is suddenly "no longer able to do a twisting skill she's done thousands of times before," CNN writes."
From 2014 to the present: this blog is dedicated to reporting Olympic news: Winter, Summer, & Special. And also devoted to praying for the SOULS of the athletes, officials, spectators, etc that ALL may know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord & Savior ! Great athletic bodies only last for so long. Our souls in Christ last forever !
