In the last six months, Aly Raisman has been a busy woman. 

In May, she showed up in Maroon 5 and Cardi B's "Girls Like You" video. She teamed up with Darkness to Light for the #FlipTheSwitch campaign, which helps train people to prevent the sexual abuse of children. And earlier this year in an Ingham County, Michigan, courthouse, she gave a stirring, powerful statement that helped put Larry Nassar in prison.

Raisman is also, of course, one of the best gymnasts the world has ever seen.

She won gold medals in the 2012 Olympics in London and gold at the 2016 Olympics in Rio, too — an extremely rare feat. 

The video above is one of FloGymnastics' most-watched technique sessions of all time, dating back to 2012 as Raisman prepared for the American Cup in March of that year ahead of the London Olympics.
