Olympic gymnast Nastia Liukin is broadcasting her massive thigh gap all over the internet. The 31-year-old five-time Olympic medalist, largely in the news for her fashionista looks of late, was back to the workout spandex on Sunday morning, but she hadn't ditched picking the trendiest brand around. Nastia, followed by 1 million on her Instagram, shouted out celeb-adored Alo Yoga, also peeking the inside of her Dallas, TX home and saying she hadn't been in this part of the house for a while. Check it out below.

Scroll for the latest photo. The above one made headlines in September 2020 as Nastia quit Dallas for a short cabin break in Montana where she was snapped hiking with dog Harley.
Nastia's photo today came with her up early and ready to workout. The 2008 all-around Olympic champion, swinging a hip and in selfie mode, paraded her killer thigh gap and snatched waistline in tight black leggings, with a logo Alo top cropped for a belly-baring finish. A mirror view was likely a treat for fans.

Nastia, seen amid wood floors, wrote: "Been a second since I've used this room @aloyoga." The blonde, who has touted the benefits of Pilates since quitting professional gymnastics aged just 22 in 2012, is also a yoga lover and even a bit of a boxer.
"I love boxing with my trainer. I love barre classes and hot yoga. I love Pilates. That really elongates you, but it’s also important to do some kind of cardio and now that the weather’s nice I love running along the West Side. It’s a beautiful view. I take spinning classes, too," she told The Cut in 2016.

Nastia, who has not had it easy of late with a 2020 anorexia storm and a 2021 troll commenting on her "gross skinny chicken legs," has been clapping back on both occasions. Recently, it was the star stating that those "gross skinny chicken legs" won her an Olympic medal and she even posted an upside-down splits from the beam to shut the troll down.
"It’s like my gold medal — you just can’t get another one. It’s kind of like your body: You have one chance with it, so try to treat it the best that you can."

Nastia, who is followed by gymnastics faces including 23-year-old superstar Simone Biles, proves popular on IG from her selfies to her promos. In 2020, Nastia extended both legs in a bubble bath to promote skincare brand Olay, although the star has her own gigs, currently retailing her $55 Celery Green Cream.
Nastia's recent posts have included her famous frontless shirt, a stunning snow-cation in Montana, plus sneak peeks at her Harley and Me dog brand. If Simone Biles is on your radar, scroll for her skimpy poolside snack crisis.
