 Just hours before podium training kicked off at the XL Center in Hartford, Connecticut, there was a bit of a scare for Gabby Douglas [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/gabby-douglas/]. News started swirling that she might miss out on her chances ahead of the 2024 Core Hydration Classic. Taking to her Instagram stories while en route to the airport, Gabby shared her dilemma: “Flight got cancelled and now stuck in Dallas. Help!!!!!” It wasn’t just a run-of-the-mill delay either; the National Weather Service (NWS) had issued flood alerts over areas like Dallas, Fort Worth, and Plano due to expected heavy rainfall. And to top it off, severe thunderstorms were in the forecast, making matters worse. But just minutes before podium training began, GymCastic, a gymnastics news account, dropped a bombshell: “USAG let us know that Gabby has arrived in Hartford.” A collective sigh of relief echoed among fans around the world. Then, after an electrifying showcase in the arena the day before, Gabby spilled the beans on her journey to Connecticut. A post by Nick McCarvel on X revealed the final twist: “Gabby Douglas says she flew private to Hartford after flight delays out of Dallas yesterday.“ Talk about cutting it close! Despite the travel hiccup, Gabby managed to make it to Hartford, setting the stage for an epic showdown with fellow champions like Suni Lee and Simone Biles at the Core Hydration Classic. But that’s not all; Gabby shared with the press that she had only managed a mere 2 hours of sleep prior to podium training. So how did she perform? HOW DID GABBY TURN HEADS DURING PODIUM TRAINING? During podium training, Gabby Douglas mesmerized onlookers with her impeccable performance on the uneven bars, flawlessly executing a captivating full set that showcased her extraordinary precision. While her coach, Valeri Liukin, appeared actively involved, especially during the Chow 1/2 sequence, his specific contributions remained somewhat enigmatic to observers. Transitioning to the floor exercise, Gabby continued to command attention with her dynamic routines, effortlessly executing a front full to full-in and delivering a breathtaking double layout that left spectators in awe. Collectively, her stellar performance foreshadowed a formidable presence at the upcoming 2024 Core Hydration Classic, leaving no doubt about her readiness to pave her path to the Paris Olympics. 

Gabby Douglas splurged on a private jet to make it to the Core Hydration Classic 2024, saving her Paris Olympics dream.

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.

<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.

<strong>Nadia Comaneci:</strong>

<strong>Svetlana Khorkina:</strong>

With a total of 47 Olympic, World and European Championships medals, Svetlana Khorkina is a remarkable gymnast.

<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> Who is Gabby Douglas? </b></h2>
Gymnast Gabby Douglas, 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 Douglas’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.

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, 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 Douglas’s net worth in 2024</b></h2>

Douglas net worth also includes her autobiography project – "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 Douglas’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.
