Balance, coordination, flexibility... The strength of a gymnast does not come easy and the athletes at "Olympic Dreams" in Youngstown can attest to that.

Shock, yet understanding, comes from gymnasts 13-year-old Addison Sarisky of Girard and 14-year-old Giana Trolio of Boardman after Simone Biles withdrew from the Olympic women's gymnastics team final pointing to the pressure.

"Obviously that's a lot of pressure being in the Olympics cause that's very very big," Sarisky said, "Because everyone is trying for the same thing. Everyone is trying to win. Everyone is trying to be the best they could possibly be."

During the competition, the eyes of judges are on a gymnast's complex routine, with very little room for error.

"Gymnastics is really about doing the same skill every time the right way, like perfect," Trolio said, "And you get scored on your execution and it's just always been one of the sports that's just pretty to watch, and it's supposed to be perfect really."

Coaching for 40 years, Dawn Toussaint said there's extreme pressure and has once witnessed Simone Biles compete in-person herself.

"We were at a competition in Houston and she actually rotated with my athletes that are now graduated from college," Toussaint said, "We knew this girl was definitely going somewhere... She is definitely by far the most advanced gymnast and her difficulty level is incredible, but at the end of the day, we're all just humans."

She said the last thing a gymnast should do is compete when they're not in the right frame of mind.

"I think it's major for them to look at her [Biles] well-being," she said, "She's doing such difficulty. If she would have competed and wasn't in the right frame of mind, she could have really injured herself, so I'm really glad they were looking at her safety and well-being."

Despite the evolution of gymnastics changing the score from a perfect ten to an open-ended score, Toussaint said gymnasts build their routine by adding more and more difficult moves to increase their score. 

"Gymnastics is built around being perfect and so one little wobble and it takes away part of your score," she said, "You've got to try to make them understand no matter what happens at the end of the day, that we're proud of them. We're proud of their hard work."
