Even the greatest athletes face challenges, and U.S. gymnast Simone Biles is no exception.
The Olympic gold medalist, often celebrated for her unmatched skills on the gymnastics mat, recently admitted that Pilates is one workout she struggles to master.
During an appearance on “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” Biles shared a humorous yet relatable story about her experience.
“I cannot do it to save my life,” Biles confessed with a laugh.
She explained that the workout left her legs trembling, and she even admitted to sneaking in rests when the instructor wasn’t looking.
“It’s not for me,” she added, candidly sharing her honest opinion about the exercise.
Meanwhile, host Kelly Clarkson revealed that she also struggles with Pilates and found comfort in hearing Biles’ story.
“It made me feel good that you weren’t good,” Clarkson joked, adding that if Biles finds it challenging, she felt less alone in her own struggles.
For what it’s worth, Biles recently opened up about her experience during a Pilates class, marking her first workout since her triumphant run at the Paris Olympics.
“First time working out since the Olympics. Y’all stay strong out there. It was too hard,” she wrote in an Instagram Story.
The lighthearted conversation on the show gave fans a glimpse into Simone Biles’ more relatable side. Known for her incredible athletic feats, the 27-year-old has often been seen as superhuman.
