LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne is back with another locker room video showing off her flexibility—and no matter how many times she reminds us how talented she is, we’re still equally impressed with each post. The New Jersey native, who just began her senior year and will soon embark on her final season as a Tiger, donned a baggy crewneck and black spandex shorts as she squatted, put all her weight on her palms on the ground and slowly lifted her legs in the air. She held a perfect handstand for a few seconds, then split her legs apart and brought them back down to a splits position on the floor.

Her long blonde locks were tossed into a messy high ponytail and she smiled bright as she finished the move with her hands up and wrists bent.

“This definitely only took one try #foryou #lsu #gymnastics,” Dunne sarcastically captioned the video she shared with her 7.7 million followers on Aug. 29.

The 20-year-old NCAA star, who is the highest-paid female college athlete in the country through NIL, made her SI Swimsuit debut earlier this year. She was photographed by Ben Watts in Puerto Rico for the 2023 issue.

“girl is a literal goddess,” one fan commented.

“That’s actually impressive ngl,” someone chimed.

“A literal Angel,” another added.

“An amazing and beautiful person, no doubt you will succeed in anything you do, stay safe and God Bless 🙏❤️,” one person gushed.

“A display of power and finesse,” someone else wrote.

“ur so perfect and talented liv. don’t let anyone discourage u,” another fan noted.
