The 2023 U.S. National Gymnastics Championships are almost upon. Starting on 24 August 2023, around 147 gymnasts will compete in multiple disciplines for the next four days. The likes of Simone Biles, Sunisa Lee, and Jade Carey will take center stage as they aim to start building momentum for next year’s Paris Olympics by putting in dominant performances at the 2023 U.S. Championships. Carey has been on a roll since 2017 when she first won silver medals at the World Championships.

Fast forward to today, Jade Carey is also an Olympic gold medalist in the floor exercise discipline. However, after a somewhat lackluster performance during the 2023 U.S. Classic, Jade Carey opens up about her struggles and pressure. The Oregon State University prodigy is looking to come back stronger at the upcoming championships as she looks to reset and go again.

Jade Carey highlights her gymnastics struggles

While training for the U.S. Classic event, Carey was struggling with her Maloney half on the uneven bars. Due to this, she only participated in the balance beam discipline and managed a score of 13.00 as compared to Simone Biles’ winning score of 14.80. Now, Carey is looking to return to winning ways, as she wants to get back on the mats and prove to herself that she can win it. She wants to showcase to the world that she can do more than just vault and floor. In fact, she believes that she can compete in any discipline. Carey admits that as she grew older, it has increasingly become more difficult to prepare and adapt quickly for competitions.

She finds it frustrating to not be able to get back to her peak condition through training with the snap of a finger. The Olympic champion also highlighted that the past month was difficult for her to endure. She had problems with getting the final routines right, and this was a struggle for the Olympic champion. According to an Olympics report, Carey said, ?I think I?ve been putting a lot of pressure on myself to be able to just do it and missed that step of taking it back, really figuring out what I need to think and what I need to do, more relying on my technique than just getting frustrated.”?As she prepares for the U.S. Championships, Carey opens up on her approach towards the upcoming games.

However, Carey did admit that she would perform an easier floor routine at the upcoming games. But will take a different approach for the World Championships in September by upgrading her floor routine when compared to the one at the U.S. Championships. Carey also revealed that her upcoming college years will also see her participating less in NCAA events.
