164 days until the Paris Olympics 2024 rolls in. The gymnastic virtuoso Simone Biles [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/simone-arianne-biles/], who had a stellar 2023 comeback season with back-to-back wins, just concluded the Biles Invitational. But soon after, her absence from the Winter Cup 2024 list left her fans concerned. On February 23-25, 2024, gymnasts will be back with their power displays on the mat. But after the Biles news surfaced from the US Gymnastics Championships qualifying event [https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-olympics-news-gymnastics-news-simone-biles-surprised-by-yet-another-heartfelt-gift-from-jonathan-owens-amid-valentines-week/], the 2023 World Championships all-around bronze medalist Fred Richard, also withdrew himself. The 2020 and 2021 Junior Pan American Champion made big waves in 2023, but his promising journey took off in the 2022-23 season when he registered with the Michigan Wolverines. Since he started taking gymnastics and TikTok to new heights, he garnered love and fame from fans alike. But his current withdrawal made fans speculate. Is he at the mouth of injuries? FRED RICHARD’S RULE OUT AFTER SIMONE BILES INVITES QUESTIONS In an X post of USA Gymnastics, the caption reads, “#WinterCup Update: @FrederickFlips has withdrawn from the Senior Men’s Competition”. The sole reason behind this can be that the athletes are mindfully keeping themselves off certain events to focus more on their preferred ones, most importantly the Olympics. Another X post of Gymnastics Now reads, “Richard told us he’s all good, just not in top form due to minor injuries, and he wants to be ready for the postseason and Olympics. He’s still expected to compete this weekend for Michigan”. With the NCAA Championships looming, the contention is upping bit by bit. But the DTB Pokal Team Challenge winner has nothing but hope lingering in his heart. With her gymnastic comrade Gabby Douglas making a comeback this season, Simone Biles has been busy in juggling gymnastics and personal life. Besides her, even Leanne Wong and Jade Carey, the stellar collegiate gymnasts, are currently focused on the meet season.

At the Kentucky International Convention Center in Louisville, the event will start on February 23 and continue till the 25th. USA Gymnastics YouTube channel will televise the event. Biles Gears Up for Another On-Camera Appearance [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/us-sports-news-after-having-a-spooky-halloween-gymnastics-queen-simone-biles-buckles-up-for-another-on-camera-appearance/] 

Simone Biles, absent from the Winter Cup 2024 list made another gymnast Fred Richards follow her footsteps. Now, he's also out of the event.

Gymnastics is a collection of physical exercises requiring a lot of strength, agility, balance, and flexibility. It is closely related to circus performing skills as athletes put their bodies to the fullest use. Likewise, there are various disciplines for gymnasts to showcase their talents. Thus, it evolved from ancient Greeks that included skills to mounting to dismounting a horse. The competitive form of gymnastics is called artistic gymnastics. It involves various events for women like the floor, vault, uneven bars, and the beam. For men, they have floor, vault, rings, pommel horse, parallel bars, and horizontal bars. Therefore, the sport is famous for its aesthetic values and the Olympics draws major crowds to the gymnastics arena.

<h3>History of Gymnastics</h3>
Gymnastics originated from the Greek term, 'to exercise naked,' applied in ancient Greece exercises. These exercises became a mainstay at the Olympics but most of the competition came from ancient roots. There are stone engravings found in Shandong province during <a href="https://www.britannica.com/sports/gymnastics/Gymnasts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Han Period</a> (206 <span class="text-smallcaps">BCE</span>–220 <span class="text-smallcaps">CE) where they portrayed acrobatics. Like every sport, the person credited for making the sport famous was Friedrich Ludwig Jahn, founder of the Turnverein movement as he helped to spread gymnastics across the world. </span>

<span class="text-smallcaps">Most of the exercises were conducted on the playground. Therefore, various events came into existence. They held the first Gymnastics festival in 1860 in Coburg. The Americans were introduced to Gymnastics in the late 1820s while the Federation Internationale Gymnastique was founded in 1881 to organize the event. The 1896 Olympic Games saw the starting stages of gymnastics being introduced to the world. </span>
<h3>The Sport</h3>
There are three divisions of artistic gymnastics- artistic, rhythmic, and trampoline. There are six <a href="https://completegymnastics.com/gymnastics-disciplines-explained/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">events</a> for men and the all around event where they combine scores from every discipline. For women, there are four exercises and a similar all around event, both team and individual events. Apart from artistic gymnastics, there is rhythmic gymnastics and is practiced only by women. Trampoline is the other discipline of gymnastics and introduced itself at the 2000 Olympic Games. As years pass by, various gymnasts showcased their athletic skills to the masses in attendance.

<h3>Famous gymnasts in the world</h3>
<strong>Simone Biles:</strong>

In terms of pure dominance, Simone Biles enters the list as arguably the greatest gymnast of all time. She is the <a href="https://www.rookieroad.com/gymnastics/top-6-best-womens-players-of-all-time/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">most decorated</a> gymnast in the World Championships, winning four gold, one silver, and two bronze medals. The 2016 Rio Olympics saw her winning four gold medals and completely dominated the events. She has 25 World Championships medals to her name and her stance on mental health helps her become an influential person in the society.

<strong>Larisa Latynina:</strong>

Winning nine gold medals at the Olympics is astonishing and Larisa Latynina ranks on top of the famous gymnast charts. After Michael Phelps, she has the most Olympic medals with 18. She popularized the sport of gymnastics and was the first star in the sport. Her iconic performances will go down to the gymnastics folklore.

<strong>Nadia Comaneci:</strong>

Achieving a perfect 10.0 score in gymnastics is amazing. But, doing it at the Olympics, when just turning 14, placed Nadia Comaneci amongst the pantheon of greats. The 1976 Olympics saw her earning seven perfect scores. She won five Olympic gold medals out of the nine she won.

<strong>Svetlana Khorkina:</strong>

With a total of 47 Olympic, World and European Championships medals, Svetlana Khorkina is a remarkable gymnast. She became the first gymnast to win three all-around titles at the World Championships while winning five gold medals in the uneven bars at World Championships. Her success in the uneven bars earned her the moniker 'The Queen of Bars.'

<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2343875" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Gabby-Douglas-fb-560x315.jpg" alt="" width="560" height="315" />
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Â Who is Gabby Douglas?Â </b></h2>
Gymnast Gabby Douglas,Â the 2012 Olympic all-around champion and the 2015 World all-around silver medalist, is dubbed the "Fierce Five" and the "Final Five." In 2012, she became both the first American to claim gold medals in the team and individual all-around events and the first African American to win the all-around title. Her gymnastics achievements soared to hights that led her life story adaptation in the 2014 Lifetime biopic film, The Gabby Douglas Story.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Gabby Douglasâ€™s early life</b></h2>
Gabby Douglas, whose birth name is Gabrielle Christina Victoria Douglas, was born in Newport News, Virginia, and was raised in the neighboring city of Virginia Beach. Her parents are Timothy Douglas and Natalie Hawkins-Douglas. She has two older sisters, Arielle and Joyelle, and one older brother, Johnathan. At the age of six, she embarked on her gymnastics journey after her sister persuaded their mother to enroll her in classes. In October 2002, she commenced her training at Gymstrada. In two years, she won the Level 4 all-around gymnastics title at the 2004 Virginia State Championships.

However, her growing up alongside her siblings was not for long as she left her family and moved in with a host family in West Des Moines, Iowa, in 2010. At the age of 14,Â she started training with prominent coach Liang Chow. Her family couldn't accompany her as her siblings were finishing school in Virginia. In an interview, she revealed that she was homeschooled from third grade till her senior year.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Gabby Douglasâ€™s net worth in 2024</b></h2>
Gabby Douglas, who has received many accolades and has partnered with several brands throughout her career, has an estimated net worth of $4 million as of 2024. Apart from her earnings from her competitions, she has pursued various endeavors and projects. She earned from her endorsements with Kellogg's and other major brands like Nike.

Douglas net worth also includes her autobiography project â€“ "Grace, Gold, and Glory: My Leap of Faith," which debuted at No. 4 on The New York Times Young Adult Bestseller List upon its release in December 2012. This success encouraged her to release her second book, "Raising the Bar," in 2013. In 2012, she also featured in an ad campaign for the Nintendo video game, "New Super Mario Bros. 2."

In 2013, Douglas introduced herself to television with her appearance on the Disney XD show "Kickin It."

She also took up acting roles, including a stint on the show "Undercover Boss" in 2018.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Gabby Douglasâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
Gabby Douglas's journey in gymnastics began at the age of six. Since then she showed rapid progress and clinched the Level 4 all-around gymnastics title at the 2004 Virginia State Championships by age eight. Her decision to move to Des Moines, Iowa, to train full-time under esteemed coach Liang Chow further added to the accolades she received in the later years.

In 2008, Douglas made her international debut at the US Classic in Houston, Texas, where she secured a 10th place finish in the all-around rankings. Despite her efforts, she placed 16th at the 2008 Visa Championships in Boston, Massachusetts, missing out on a spot in the 2008 Junior Women's National Team.

In 2009, a setback occurred when Douglas fractured the growth plate of her wrist, forcing her to skip the 2009 Covergirl US Classic and limiting her performance at the 2009 Visa Championships to balance beam and floor exercise.

Transitioning to her senior gymnastics career in 2011, Douglas contributed to the US team's victories at the City of Jesolo Trophy in Italy and the 2011 World Championships.

After a two-year break from competitive gymnastics, Douglas made a comeback to the U.S. national team in November 2014. At the 2015 Artistic Gymnastics World Championships she won a gold medal in the team event and a silver in the all-around competition.

<span style="color: #252525">Shi Jones, who had her sights set on the Tokyo Olympics, had a turbulent 2020 and 2021. The games were postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, so she had to wait an extra year in 2020. Then, before the trials could begin, she was involved in a terrible car accident.

<h2><b>Simone Biles Net Worth</b></h2>
Simone Arianne Biles is one of the most decorated American artistic gymnasts. As of 2024, her net worth is around $16 million.

Presently, she is overseeing the construction of her new home with beau Jonathan Owens. While not much detail has been revealed about the house, the property is said to be on a highway in Texas.
<h2><b>Simone Biles' Family</b></h2>
Simone Biles' family comprises her parents and biological and adoptive siblings. Simone Biles also considers her pet dogs â€“ French Bulldogs, a female and male named Lilo and Rambo â€“ a part of her little family. Biles' adoptive parents are Ronald Biles and Nellie Biles. She has her own younger sister, Adria Biles, and two elder adoptive brothers named Adam and Ron Biles Jr.

Her extended family includes Ron Biles Jr.'s wife, Sammi Biles, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-olympics-news-gymnastics-news-baby-girl-is-already-so-loved-simone-biles-welcomes-baby-biles-to-her-adorable-family/">baby Biles, the little angel the family welcomed in November 2022. </a>She also has two estranged biological siblings, a sister named Ashley Biles Thomas, and a brother, Tevin Biles. The siblings got separated at a young age after being adopted by different families.
<h2><b>Early Life and Childhood</b></h2>
Simone Biles was born to Shannon Biles on March 14, 1997. Her biological father, Kelvin Clemons, was absent from her life since the beginning. Supporting four kids while battling alcoholism and drug addiction proved hard for Shanon Biles. Because of this, the young Biles siblings ended up in foster care for years. Biles was just three years old when she was separated from her biological mother and put into foster care. However, three years later, the Biles siblings were adopted by their maternal grandfather Ron Biles.

Simone Biles' <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/us-sports-news-gymnastics-news-dont-call-and-dont-visit-simone-biles-biological-mother-was-forbidden-from-seeing-the-gymnastics-star-after-her-adoption/">biological mother was prohibited from contacting the gymnast after the adoption</a>. Simone was six when Ron and his wife, Nellie, adopted the Biles siblings. But soon it became difficult for the couple to take care of six young kids (2 biological and four adopted.) Eventually, Simone Biles' two elder biological siblings, Ashley and Tevin, were adopted by their grand aunt, Harriet.

Ron and Nellie were able to provide a safe and permanent home to little Simone and Adria. The healthy environment helped the young girls to focus on their education and explore their interests. This was also how Simone Biles found her way to gymnastics. Biles was just 6 when she saw teenage gymnasts practicing in the gymnasium during a daycare field trip.

Engrossed in her observations, she started imitating the moves of the teenagers. The coaches noticed this at the gym and wrote a letter addressed to Biles' parents suggesting enrolling her in a training center. Considering that, the couple enrolled Biles in Bannon's Gymnastix Center, which in turn became her first step towards her decorated gymnastics career.
<h2><b>Simone Biles' NFL husband Jonathan Owens</b></h2>
Simone Biles is married to the NFL safety, Jonathan Owens. The two first crossed paths during the Houston Texans' game in 2019. However, they officially met through Raya, a dating app, during the pandemic in March 2020. Reportedly, it took just about a month for the NFL player to fall for the gymnast.

They made their relationship Instagram official in August 2020. After dating for nearly two years, Jonathan Owens popped the big question in February 2022.

[caption id="attachment_1942013" align="alignnone" width="473"]<img class="size-medium wp-image-1942013" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1437383254-473x315.jpg" alt="Simone Biles" width="473" height="315" /> HOUSTON, TEXAS - OCTOBER 28: Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens pose on the field prior to Game One of the 2022 World Series between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park on October 28, 2022 in Houston, Texas.

Then in April 2023, the couple got married in an intimate courthouse wedding ceremony in Houston, Texas. Following this, the pair once again exchanged vows in an opulent destination wedding in Cabo San Lucas, in the presence of their friends, families, and close-knit acquaintances.

Recently, Owens faced criticism when he admitted that he did not know well who Simone Biles was when they matched on the dating app Raya. Biles' fans were disheartened to know that Owens hadn't heard of Biles even after her 2016 Olympic run.
<h2><b>Simone Biles' Records and Achievements</b></h2>
Throughout Simone Biles's decorated <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/gymnastics-2/gymnastics/">gymnastics</a> career, she has won numerous accolades.

<h2><b>Simone Biles' gymnastics comeback and Paris Olympics 2024</b></h2>
The 7X Olympic medalist took a break from competitive tournaments to focus on her mental health. During the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she experienced the phenomenon known as <i>"the twisties,"</i> in the wake of which she withdrew from the event. The case of 'twisties' occurs when a gymnast loses control of their body while performing twists in the air. This incident prompted Biles to become one of the first athletes to discuss mental health and prioritize it over competition openly.

Biles is now all set to compete at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. The 26-year-old made it big at the U.S. Gymnastics Championships in August winning her eighth all-around title. She also set a record for most international gymnastics medals by winning her sixth all-around title at the world championships in Belgium in October. Her comeback is a testament that she has prepared hard to pick up from where she left off in Tokyo.

Overcoming the twisties, this comeback marked a crucial milestone in her journey toward the upcoming Olympic games. She continues to prioritize her mental well-being and is undergoing therapy to strengthen her mental approach to her craft.

Throughout her journey, Jonathan Owens has been a supportive partner, standing by her side through thick and thin.
<h2><b>Simone Biles' Physical Regime</b></h2>
During the prime season, Simone Biles trains for 42 hours per week. These 42 hours are divided into seven hours per day, six days a week. Simone Biles takes an off from her training on Sunday. Of the six training days, Biles trains twice a day for four days, including Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. She trains just once a day on Thursday and Saturday. Her morning training sessions start at 9 am and end at noon. Whereas, the time for the afternoon session is from 3 to 6 pm.

Her routine includes running and stretching every part of the body. The stretching is done before and after the practice to warm up and cool down consecutively to help the muscles. For her competitions, Biles uses the cross-training method which includes running, swimming, and biking. Her routines comprise exercises like superman and hollow holds, regular and single-leg V-ups, scissors, and pulses for abs. The full-body workout includes the plie squats, superman lifts, boat holds, hip raises, and glute kickbacks. The bodyweight workout includes bear planks with butt kicks, crab reaches, wall walks, push-ups to plank jack knives and pike presses.

Here is a summary of how long she does the various regimes.

Swimming on Day 1-: 1 mile
Biking on Day 2-: 10 miles
Intense abs routine on Day 3-: 11 rounds
Full body on Day 4-: 30 minutes
Bodyweight workout on Day 5-: 30 seconds of each exercise for 3 rounds
Running on Day 6-: 3.1 Miles
