Abused: Surviving Sexual Assault and a Toxic Gymnastics Culture

Two-year-old Rachel Haines didnâ€™t know that she would be committing to twenty-one years of hard work, dedication, and perseverance as she jumped into the foam pit during her first â€œmommy and meâ€ gymnastics class. She had no idea that one day she would become a two-time National Team Member, two-time National Champion, and a Division I college gymnast at the University of Minnesota. Nor could she have known that she had just signed herself up for serious injury, emotional distress, and continuous sexual assault by world-renowned trainer turned serial molester, Larry Nassar.

In Abused: Surviving Sexual Assault and a Toxic Gymnastics Culture, Rachel details her experiences as a competitive gymnast and the painful realities of being one of Nassarâ€™s many victims. With honesty and candidness, Rachel shares how the sport she loved that gave her so muchâ€”friendships, accomplishments, a college educationâ€”is also tangled in a dangerously toxic culture that needs to be fixed. In a world that was setting her up for a lifetime of recovery, she tells how faith, family, and an army of survivors made healing possible.
