U.S. gymnastics legend Simone Biles has officially returned to training following her successful run at the Paris Olympic Games.The 11-time Olympic medalist, who recently took a break after the competition, is gearing up for the highly anticipated Gold Over America Tour (G.O.A.T.), a nationwide event set to showcase both menās and womenās gymnastics talent.During rehearsals for the tour, Biles was seen back in the gym, a sight many fans have eagerly awaited.Biles was seen on social media already dominating a new skill, the pommel horse used in menās gymnastics.Despite her recent time off, the Olympic icon remains as focused as ever.āTruthfully, Iāve only gone into the gym to practice a handful of times because of my schedule,āBiles shared in a recent interview.āIāve barely been home, but my body needed this break, so Iām not mad about it.āThe tour kicks off next Monday in Oceanside, California, and will travel across 30 cities, ending in Detroit on November 3.Biles will headline the event alongside fellow Team USA gymnasts, including Jordan Chiles and Jade Carey, with one notable absence being Suni Lee.Biles expressed her excitement for the tour, saying, āIām most excited for the fans to see the best of both worlds ā menās and womenās gymnastics in one arena, at the same exact time, sharing the same floor.āFollowing her remarkable performance at the Paris Olympics, where she won four medals, Biles faced a minor setback with a calf injury, forcing her to wear a boot during the Closing Ceremony.However, the injury didnāt slow her down for long.Now, sheās ready to return to the spotlight for her upcoming performances, although she has decided to retire one of her most challenging skills, the Yurchenko double pike.āNo more! She had a good run,āBiles said with a laugh, referring to the vault.In addition to performing, Biles sees the tour as an opportunity to inspire future gymnasts.āThis is a time to give back,ā she said.āItās about inspiring future generations, and I think having this time off helped me prepare ā mentally and physically.āOutside the gym, Biles and her husband, Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens, are preparing for a new chapter in their lives as they plan to move into their newly built home.āWe feel so blessed to be able to build our dream home. We canāt wait to officially move in and expand our family one day,ā she shared.As fans across the country prepare to witness Bilesā breathtaking performances, many are left wondering if the Paris Olympics were her last.While Biles hasnāt ruled out competing in the Los Angeles Games in 2028, she continues to leave her future plans open-ended.
