lux used to be a gymnast. OKAY HEAR ME OUT NOW. they used to be one of those flamboyant ass little kids in like every gymnastic class ever. and they were good at it too. like i’m talking their parents poured so much money into their competitions cause they knew their kid could make something from it. that was until lux got too cocky during a competition and fucking WIPED OUT. LIKE I MEAN WIPED OUT. they were trying to do a round off when they missed the balance beam and fell to the floor, tearing their right acl in the process. (this is like when they were 14ish btw) obviously, they got the surgery to fix it but when they went back to the studio after it healed, it just hurt too far too much for them to even want to participate in anything. lux had a mini identity crisis after that cause their thing was gymnastics for so long. but while recovering, that’s when they started to make content and realized: “hey, i kinda fw this. maybe not as much as gymnastics, but it’ll do.” and that’s basically how lux started getting chronic pain and became an influncer.
