Zitat des Tages von Misty May-Treanor:
I've got to read the 'Hunger Games' before I see the movie.
She had a hit for every syllable: 'Don't. You. Ever. Talk. To. Me. Like. That. Ever. Again.' That was the last time I ever talked back to Mom.
It's important to just kind of get away from your sport until you miss it. It's about taking time to enjoy other aspects of life or learn new things. It helps rejuvenate.
I try to do something every day. I lift weights at least three to four days per week, and I'll intersperse that with cardio. For example, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I'll run and do heavy lifting, and on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I'll spend two hours lifting weights, as well as something like swimming.
My biggest goal for the future is motherhood.
I think the most surprising thing about the Olympics would be the amount of interaction and partying that goes on behind the scenes. They have nightclubs at the Olympic Village. It's like college all over again.
I didn't want to stop before my time was up.
The more colorful the food, the better. I try to add color to my diet, which means vegetables and fruits.
I've never been outside Heathrow so it will be exciting to see what London has to offer. I think I've only flown into Heathrow maybe twice.
I'm stronger than I think I am. Mentally, physically.
I don't want to be put on a pedestal. I want to be known as a nice and normal person, but my skills are a little more excelled.
I would like to instill in people just to work hard. As long as they keep at it, their dreams will happen.
If there are fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies on the table, I won't say no to those. Soy sauce is another one, even though it's awful - it's so high in sodium.
If you maintain a healthy diet, or at least are smart about your food choices, you'll still see the pounds come off.
My favorite power food is Greek yogurt and honey.
