Simone with her sister Adria, teammate Jordan, and mom Nellie
MEET THE REAL SIMONE BILES. From her morning routine to her training regimen, goal-setting tips to the Athleta styles she can't live without. We sat down with Simone and her support system to get to know America's most decorated gymnast.
WE ASKED SIMONE'S BIGGEST SUPPORTERS EVERYTHING WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT HER.
Simone with her sister, Adria
Q: WHAT'S AN INSIDER SIMONE TIP SHE EMBODIES? "Simone takes pride in her work ethic. She knows it takes a lot of hard work, sacrifice, and dedication to achiever your goals. The road won't always be easy, but it will be worth it." – Sammi Biles, Sister-In-Law "Face your fears. When Simone is scared of anything, she makes herself work through it. We used to commiserate over our fear of snakes until she bought a pet snake to overcome her fear. It’s how she tackles any obstacle she faces – she takes it on." – Janey Miller, Agent "Laugh it off. She always remembers to just have fun." – ADRIA BILES, SISTER
Q: HOW DO YOU ENCOURAGE SIMONE WHEN SHE NEEDS A LITTLE BOOST? "Showing up. Taking the time to be there for her and let her know how much she is loved." – Sammi Biles, Sister-In-Law "Listening to her with an open mind and heart." – Cecile Landi, Coach "Remind her to believe in herself. And that her support system will always be there." – Nellie Biles, Mom

Q: WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM SIMONE'S TRAINING? "That she is actually fully human—but on a serious note, Simone is entirely gifted and very hard working. She takes her job and her platform very seriously." – Sammi Biles, Sister-In-Law " She always finds a way to push herself to be her best and never compares herself to others." – Janey Miller, Agent "Watching Simone in the gym is inspiring. She gives off this vibe – its hard to explain but it makes me believe that if she can do it, I can do it." – Jordan Chiles, Teammate "Your circle is everything. You become who you hang out with. Fortunately for me it’s all family and friends I look up to." – SIMONE
