I didn\u2019t quit, my mind and body are simply not in sync. As you can see. I don\u2019t think you realize how hard this is on hard\/competition surface.&nbsp;Nor do I have to explain why I put health first. Physical health is mental health. I\u2019m supposed to do 1 \u00bd more twists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The second video, showing her landing on her feet and then falling, Biles wrote, reacting to claims she should have left the competition earlier, \u201cAlmost there but not quite. Still have \u00bd twist to go. No, this was not happening before I left the USA. It randomly started happening after prelims competition the VERY next morning. By that time NO an alternate was not allowed to be placed in my position for you \u2018know it alls.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have 4 on a team for a reason,\u201d she continued. \u201cI chose to not continue competition in jeopardizing losing a medal (of any color) for the girls\/US.

They are not fun to deal with. It\u2019s honestly petrifying trying to do a skill but not having your mind and body in sync. 10\/10 do not recommend. \u2026 It\u2019s never transferred to bars and beam before for me it\u2019s strictly like floor and vault. Go figure, the scariest two\u2026 this time it\u2019s literally on every event, which sucks\u2026 really bad,\u201d according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-9842405\/Simone-Biles-reveals-struggling-presser-releases-worrying-video-slipping.html\">The Daily Mail<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Four more events await Biles if she decides to compete: the women\u2019s vault, uneven bars, balance beam and floor exercise. \u201cThe first two of those events, vault and bars, are due to take place on Sunday, meaning that Biles would likely need to announce by Saturday whether or not she is planning to take part,\u201d The Daily Mail reported, adding, \u201cShould she opt to withdraw from Sunday\u2019s events, she would still be eligible to compete in the floor exercise and balance beam finals, which are due to take place on Monday and Tuesday respectively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After her initial withdrawal, Biles&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/simone-biles-naomi-osaka-mental-health-olympics_n_61001bdae4b00fa7af7c385b\">told<\/a> reporters,\u201cWhenever you get in a high-stress situation, you kind of freak out. I have to focus on my mental health and not jeopardize my health and well-being. We have to protect our body and our mind. It just sucks when you\u2019re fighting with your own head. \u2026 I feel like I\u2019m also not having as much fun \u2014 and this Olympic Games I wanted it to be for myself and it felt like I was still doing for other people \u2014 and that hurts my heart that doing what I love has been taken away from me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
