14: Terin Humphrey Olympic Gymnast

Lindsey Elizabeth Cortes, The Radcast Network
About this episode

I’m thrilled to interview Terin Humphrey, 2x gymnastics Olympic Silver Medalist in the 2004 Athens Greece Olympics, World Champion, 11x All American, 2x NCAA Individual bar champion, and 2x Hall of Fame Inductee. We chat about her experiences competing gymnastics at an elite level at a young age and training for the Olympics. We discuss some of her nutrition and body experiences especially transitioning from Olympics to NCAA sport then to life after gymnastics. Terin’s gymnastics career is incredibly impressive but you’ll also be interested to hear about some of her other accomplishments, like becoming a police officer, participating in American Ninja Warrior, coaching gymnastics, and now raising a young daughter and going to school to study law.
