The ongoing Simone Biles-led Gold Over America Tour has been deemed a major success. There have been many reviews from the audience praising the show and its performances. The show is particularly well-liked by the younger generation, who have always been the target audience for it. This is a major achievement for Simone, for whom this tour has always been a dream project.
However, this has not been a simple task at all. Performing in 30 cities within just a bit over a month can be tiring for all the performers. There might come a point where both mental and physical fatigue kick in. The fact that some of these gymnasts have arrived on the tour straight from the Olympics must also be taken into consideration. However, the organizers of the Simone Biles-led tour seem to be aware of this and have taken precautions against it.
Joscelyn Roberson, Simone Biles’ World Championship teammate, is a part of the tour squad. She revealed that the tour bus has a physiotherapist who always accompanies them after a show to help them recover to their fullest. This is because recovery is the most important thing in this tour and helps drive down the fatigue to a manageable level.
Talking to self.com, Joscelyn said, “We have a PT on the bus that travels with us. I think recovery is really important—so getting treatment, getting good rest, and then making sure you’re ready and really warmed up for the shows. Your body is your instrument on this trip, so making sure it’s as healthy as it can be is the most important thing.”
Joscelyn Roberson also likes to unwind after every performance and gets cozy in her Target robe. The gymnast also said that she prioritizes showering after every performance to feel better. “And taking off my makeup is really nice—that really settles me down,” she said. Joscelyn also claimed to have late-night conversations with fellow teammate Katelyn Ohashi, which helped reduce both the gymnast’s mental fatigue. Thus, all these things help them prepare to go to the next performance with a fresh mind and body.
This is how the Gold Over America tour has been a great success. However, there might be a dilemma with the tour, which they soon might have to deal with. This is because Simone Biles might have to take a break for a while because of other commitments.
Simone Biles could halt Gold Over America Tour because of Rising Documentary
Simone Biles’ Gold Over America Tour is ongoing in full swing right now as fans shower praise on the show. However, Simone herself must deal with other commitments. This is because the new season of her Netflix documentary Simone Biles Rising’s premiere is all set to take place on October 23rd in Los Angeles. The importance of the show might exceed the Gold Over America Tour, too, because of the journey it is going to show.
The second season is set to cover her comeback from the Tokyo Olympics debacle to her success in the Paris Olympics. Thus, it is very special to her, which is why she would never miss the premiere. The GOAT tour, which will currently perform in Houston next, will travel to Fort Worth for their October 20th performance.
