Olympic gymnast McKayla Maroney has been hitting up burger joints and with her bra out. The 25-year-old former athlete, best known for her "unimpressed face" at the London 2012 Olympics, recently made sure 2021 allows treats despite a grim outlook, hitting up a Five Guys and doing it in a sheer shirt. McKayla, who shared the trip with her 1.3 million Instagram followers, got both revealing and interactive in her caption, getting followers to vote Five Guys vs. In-N-Out. Some things were out, though. Check it out below.

Scroll for the photo. Gymnasts and their lithe frames might come with a rabbit food reputation, but McKayla does not starve herself. The vault queen showed off her massive burger appetite while making sure she was photographed at Five Guys, throwing out the peace sign with both hands and managing to deliver a smile despite being COVID-safe and masked.
The photo, showing Five Guys employees in the background, featured Maroney in tight jeans and a belly-baring and totally see-through black top, with a major curve flaunt coming via a sexy red bra.

McKayla, highlighting her assets but steering clear of vulgarity, asked fans which they'd choose if they were forced to make a decision between the two fast-food chains. "If you had to pick?" she asked, writing: "IN N OUT" and "FIVE GUYS" for tap options.
Turns out, fans have been responding. Over 57% voted in Five Guys, with it looking like West Coast-based In-N-Out chain was trailing behind. If you think that's the only food on her IG, think again. See her frozen peas workout below!

McKayla has opened up about body-image, an issue that's very real in the ultra-competitive world of gymnastics. In 2019, and while speaking to Byrdie, the California native admitted: "When I wasn’t working out eight hours a day, I gained weight, and my coaches weren’t happy about that. So I really didn’t like my body for a while after I couldn’t really work out."
"I wasn’t eating that healthy when I was competing. I would drink 24-ounce Cokes, and my parents weren’t really health freaks," she added. More photos below!

Shortly before the weekend, McKayla made headlines for showing her TikTok followers how home workouts work during a pandemic, even getting out a frozen bread loaf and bag of peas and using them as weights. Greens are also pretty important when you're meat-free.
“Now I’m a vegan and I’m into Pilates and yoga. I do this diet called Ayurveda,” McKayla added. She also works out twice a week with a personal trainer, although her interview was pre-COVID. Scroll for the insane peas workout!
