Elena Arenas shows off her flexibility and strength on social media!
The artistic gymnast took to her TikTok account and posted a video that put the spotlight on her toned pins and taut midsection. Instead of her usual gymnastics attire or a stretchable garment, Arenas performed a handstand trend in her denim shorts.
Flaunting Her Fit Body
The 21-year-old rocked a bralette featuring a white base with black prints. It had a scoop neckline that showed off her cleavage. Meanwhile, the thin shoulder straps bared her slender arms in their entirety. Her chiseled abs were also visible in the clip, as the bralette extended just an inch or two below her chest.
Arenas paired the top with acid-washed denim shorts. The garment wrapped around her petite waist and hugged her curvy hips, accentuating her backside and sculpted legs in the process. Its waistband seemingly sat just below her navel, allowing the beauty to flaunt her sculpted abs to perfection.
Below, Arenas ditched her shoes but did the trend with her white socks on. At the time, she tied her dark locks into a bun.
So Strong & Flexible!
The video saw the LSU athlete walking away from the camera and settling at a place near the white double doors. She then bent down and planted her hands on the wooden floors to do a plank. Arenas lowered her body and slid backward before pulling up and extending her legs sideways into the perfect splits.
Arenas slowly lifted her pins to do a handstand and moved sideways. The junior lowered her legs while flashing a big smile to the camera. She then went near the camera and leaned forward to press the stop button.
"This trend was harder than i expected😅 might try again tmr #fyp #foryou #gymnast," Arenas wrote in the caption, adding, "I'm not a minor tik tok I'm 20."
Fans Are Impressed
Fans couldn’t get enough of the footage. As of this writing, the post racked up over 111,000 views. It also earned nearly 12,000 likes and dozens of comments from her eager admirers.
"Straddle presses r so much more satisfying," one wrote.
"SO GOOD LENNY," gushed another commenter.
"You nailed it!! 👏🏻 good job," remarked the third user.
Making Waves On Social Media
The Georgia native has been keeping her fans entertained with a number of sizzling updates. As reported by The Blast, Arenas posted pics on Instagram that saw her flaunting her killer curves in a snakeskin-print bikini. She posed on the balcony at Lake Oconee, which she called her "happy place."
The update proved to be a hit, earning over 10,000 likes.
"Typical slay," her teammate and fellow influencer Olivia Dunne commented.
"The most beautiful!!!!" added Arenas' boyfriend and LSU baseball player Garrett Edwards.
"What a Body!!" a third follower gushed.
She Likes 'Tkatchev'
When not on social media, Arenas trains hard as a gymnast. When she was 12, she told The Gymternet that she's a "Focused, hard worker, dedicated" gymnast.
Arenas also revealed her favorite events and skills at the time.
"My favorite event is bars and my favorite skill is a Tkatchev! In the future I’d like to have an inside stalder, a double full on vault, and a three part series on beam," she said.
