This spot features members of USA Gymnastics Women’s National Team, part of the campaign carrying the tagline, “It’s What You Do in the Dark That Puts You in the Light.” We see the sacrifices these athletes make–and the elation they feel–when wholly dedicated to training for their sport.
We see the female gymnasts building full-body strength and training on the mat, traveling to competitions, and putting in hours of constant, grueling work for a chance at glory.
