I have spoken many times before in regards to knowing what your physical and mental limits are.

I personally find that motivations quotes like “Push Past Your Limits” are not helpful at all. Knowing your limits is so much more important. Pushing past your limits can lead to injury or even mental breaks.

That is why I felt so proud when I heard the news that Simone Biles chose that for her own physical and mental well being she stepped away from the Olympics.

On one side you have people calling her weak but i think she is an amazingly strong woman for taking a stand against those who would abuse her and break her.

One person on Facebook spelled it out better then I ever could on just how abusive gymnastics is on these young athletes.
