Misty May-Treanor

My biggest goal for the future is motherhood.

Over the years, I've made many sacrifices to win two Olympic gold medals and put together winning streaks that will never be broken.

I used to spend a couple of hours in the weight room, but really, an hour is long enough. I lift twice a week and on other days incorporate more core yoga and different exercises. It's important to listen to your body. I will shut it down if I'm tired.

I used to hate planks, because I could only hold them for about 20 seconds. I'll never be like, 'Yeah, I'm so excited to do planks!' but I find that I don't hate them as much anymore.

I know when things are going to get me a little nervous, because nervous to me feels good.

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 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.

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 would like to instill in people just to work hard. As long as they keep at it, their dreams will happen.

If you maintain a healthy diet, or at least are smart about your food choices, you'll still see the pounds come off.

My campaign is about getting pets to be more active, and exercise with your animal is a great way for people to exercise. When you're out with your pet, it becomes fun. You don't think of it as a chore. For me, taking my dog out for a walk is very relaxing.

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.
