Biles took a small break from gymnastics following the Paris 2024 Olympic Games

U.S. gymnastics legend Simone Biles has officially returned to training following her successful run at the Paris Olympic Games.

Simone Biles ready to go on tour

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 men’s and women’s 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 men’s gymnastics.

Despite her recent time off, the Olympic icon remains as focused as ever.

“Truthfully, I’ve only gone into the gym to practice a handful of times because of my schedule,”Biles shared in a recent interview.

“I’ve barely been home, but my body needed this break, so I’m not mad about it.”

The 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, “I’m most excited for the fans to see the best of both worlds – men’s and women’s gymnastics in one arena, at the same exact time, sharing the same floor.”

Biles not bothered by calf injury anymore

Following 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 didn’t slow her down for long.

Now, she’s 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.

“No more! She had a good run,”Biles said with a laugh, referring to the vault.

In addition to performing, Biles sees the tour as an opportunity to inspire future gymnasts.

“This is a time to give back,” she said.

“It’s about inspiring future generations, and I think having this time off helped me prepare – mentally and physically.”

Outside 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.

“We feel so blessed to be able to build our dream home. We can’t wait to officially move in and expand our family one day,” she shared.
