You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.Given I was once going up that sporting ladder before I quit, I thought this book would be something to open my eyes into what the top is really like, not just the stories you hear. From the peak of the sport at the Olympics, to inspiring the younger generation to get into gymnastics. Nile certainly doesn't shy away from possibly looking foolish and he clearly gets his confidence to perform from his dad! The public perception of Nile Wilson is focused on his humor, openness, and how down-to-earth he is.

Nile talks through how he rapidly rose to gymnastics stardom; his views on gymnastics coaching; the enormous battles he faced with injury which eventually forced him into retirement; his battles with gambling and mental health issues; his family; and how he successfully moved into business. I recommend that fellow gymnastics fans pick up a copy of Nile Wilson - My Story when it is published. We also use them to help detect unauthorized access or activity that violate our terms of service, as well as to analyze site traffic and performance for our own site improvement efforts.His book will be a guide for anyone new to the sport and will show just how easy it is to get and stay fit using gymnastics. If you’ve seen his YouTube video about similar topics alot of this is the same, and on a similar level. The chronology and consistency of this little book are often garbled, likely because Nile is simply too close to the material. I was taken aback by some of the chapters in this book, particularly those surrounding his struggles with alcohol and gambling, and the trouble with Leeds Gymnastics club and British Gymnastics.
